¶ God as Solution for Mental Health
A really cool thing about God is that he is a solution for literally every situation , and that includes mental health . We see this especially in the ministry of Jesus , who walked the land healing people of all sorts of terrible things . One day he encountered a man who had been driven insane by demons .
Mark 5.15 says they came to Jesus and observed the man who had been demon possessed , sitting down , clothed and in his right mind , the very man who had the legion , and they became frightened . The legion , those who possessed this man's mind , were no match for Jesus , who simply commanded them to leave the man in peace , and they did .
Now not every mental health problem is related to possession , but mental illness is so devastating to the patient , family and friends that it often feels like evil lives there . Not so in the peaceful kingdom of our Lord . If you or a loved one struggle with mental issues , ask God to help you .
He has done it many times and that man with the peaceful face and clear mind all those years ago is proof of that . Let's pray , lord , you own the universe and can solve any problem . Please , especially today , be with those afflicted by mental illness . Come to them and comfort them and heal them In Jesus' name , amen .
