Standing Tall in the Face of Depression

March 16, 2025

Standing Tall in the Face of Depression

Sermon by Pastor Brent Snook / March 16, 2025

Series: Standing Tall

Text: 1 Kings 19

Some of the greatest men experienced bouts of depression:

Luther
John Knox
Moses
Jeremiah
Jonah
Paul
Spurgeon

“For more than a week I was close to the gates of death and Hell. I trembled in all my members. Christ was wholly lost. I was shaken by the desperation of God.” – Luther

“Lord Jesus, receive my spirit and put an end to this miserable life.” – Knox

“My soul is cast down within me. I feel as if I would rather die than live. All that God hath done by me seems to be forgotten, my spirit flags and my courage breaks down. I need your prayers.” – Spurgeon

I THE REALITY OF ELIJAH’S DEPRESSION

A. Victory of Elijah

B. Vulnerability of Elijah

Read 1 Kings 19:1-2

II. THE REASONS OF ELIJAH’S DEPRESSION

A. Fear

“Fear is a thief. It erodes our faith, plunders our hope, steals our freedom and takes away our joy of living the abundant life of Christ.” – Neil Anderson

B. Failure

C. Fatigue

“Fatigue makes cowards out of all of us.”

D. Frustration

Read 1 Kings 19:9-10

III. THE RESULT OF ELIJAH’S DEPRESSION

A. Ran

Read 1 Kings 19:3a

B. Retreat

Read 1 Kings 19:3b-4

The first things we tend to do is the worst thing we can do: get alone

C. Request

Read 1 Kings 19:4

IV. THE RECOVERY OF ELIJAH’S DEPRESSION

A. Provision

Read 1 Kings 19:5-7

Sometimes we don’t need a sermon – but rather a sandwich

Read 1 Kings 19:8, 19:9, 19:10

B. Power

Read 1 Kings 19:12b-13

God doesn’t always speak through the big things – but rather, sometimes it is through the simple things of life

C. Purpose

God is not finished with you. There is still much to do.

D. People

Read 1 Kings 19:18-21

If you want to go fast, go alone. But if you want to go far, go together.

There are three times when the tendency if to get low

When things happen that you don’t think should happen
When things you’re convinced will happen don’t
You expect things to happen now – but they don’t happen for a long time
