Breathing Out the Weight of Depression - Louie Giglio

Pastor Louie leads our House into a new Collection of Talks, titled, ‘Putting an ‘X’ Through Anxiety’. In this talk, Pastor Louie urges listeners to get back in touch with the breath of God-His Spirit. It is breathing IN the truth about God and the actual physical breath that He gives us that ultimately combats the anxiety and depression that ravage our nation. It is in breathing OUT worship and truth that ultimately leads to an offensive attack on the schemes of the Enemy.
VERSES // Ezekiel 37:1-14, Genesis 1:2, Genesis 2:7, Acts 17:25, Romans 8:9

At Passion City Church, we believe that because God has displayed the ultimate sacrifice in Jesus, our response to that in worship must be extravagant. It is our privilege, and our created purpose, to reflect God’s Glory to Him through our praise, our sacrifice, and our song.

    Thank you for making this about God stepping in... and not about those that struggle with their mental health not praying enough or not having enough faith. Thank you for also speaking about practical steps people can take. Best message I've heard on this topic. Didn't feel dismissed or condemned.

    Hi pastor, I am Marieta Viljoen living in Swakopmunt, Namibia 🇳🇦, South West Africa. I love ❤ your sermons, given by God. The first two was: they were about the greatness of the universe- the greatness of our God. That changed my outlook on God from before I was fifty, I am eighty now. Your/God's word brought the difference. A few weeks ago my daughter was taking photos on the seaside. Not aware that she captured a image on a little stone that reminded me of the image of Laminin. I pointed 👉 it out to her.I searched for your videos to show her. Before she had come to Christ, she knows Him. Albeit she had gone through the death of daughter under suspicious circumstances. She had been under such deep depression from which she now recovering. Glory to God for His healing power.

    Quite the contrary, I believe in what God can do. I believe who God is. I expect, trust and have faith in Him so much that I can’t understand why He’s allowing this horror of 6 years continue. It’s because I know who God is that I’m confused as to why this is still happening. It makes no sense. My eyes and heart are solely on Him, therefore, no, my eyes are only on Him. I have so many praying for me. I do things when I can’t and don’t have the strength to get up. I call it forced by faith. How do I explain to you how I’ve been so confused because my eyes and hope, trust and faith is only IN HIM. In Him it’s only me getting out of this morbidity. I call out to Him, “Have mercy on me Son of David.” He is the only one. I’ve been under excruciating attack. I know the Word of God intimately. In January 1997 God asked me to memorise scriptures and scriptures and use them as prayer. I have over 40+ people for 26 years, therefore, again my focus is on Him. Only Him. I’ve tried the breathing. I truly tried. It hasn’t helped me. It’s been very traumatic.
