Unchecked Disappointment, can lead to depression.

Unchecked depression can lead to Depression.

Unchecked depression can lead to Grief.

Back to 1 Samuel

The Grief robs them of their strength.

(ability to produce)

David is part of them.

He is wailing, crying at the top of his voice.

This moment has stolen his strength.

It has stolen his family.

There is great loss.

(Demonstrate)

But then there is a shift.

First half of the verse.

Greatly: vehemently: Fierce aggressive, diligently Distressed: In a tight space.

Everything is closing in.

The whole mob begins to plan Davids defeat.

Unchecked Discouragement, depression and grief, will soon turn on you to destroy you.

Click: Fade in But David.... Strengthened himself in the Lord his God.

The Lord.......YOUR GOD.

David Made a Move.

Jesus is the Best Example of Jesus.

Well, I’m just going to go over there and set them free.

Do you see it in the life of Jesus?

Every healing and deliverance, involved the person or one with authority in the life of the person, making the move toward Jesus.

(explain)

Mark 5:21 Jairus, “My little daughter”

Mark 5:34 Woman With the Issue of Blood, “Daughter your faith....”

Luke 7:7 Centurion, “My servant”

Luke 9:38 Unnamed man.

“Teacher my only child...”

In Each Situation, the one with authority, approaches Jesus.

When we are ministering healing or deliverance, we take as much authority as is given to us.

Read: VS 4. This man is possessed, We are talking more about Oppression, depression, discouragement and overwhelming grief.

Vs 5. Sum it up.

Vs 6.
