Numbers 13:30-31 And Caleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it. 31 But the men that went up with him said, We be not able to go up against the people; for they are stronger than we.

Another story that greatly illustrates faith is the story of the twelve spies who went out to spy out the land of promise. The Bible declares that ten of the men brought an evil report while only two brought good news. Both of these groups of people saw the same thing – the giants, how blessed the land was – but only two of them could see themselves possessing the land.

ONE DEFILED BY THE DEAD IS OUTSIDE THE CAMP

ONE DEFILED BY THE DEAD IS OUTSIDE THE CAMP

Numbers 5:1 ¶ And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying, 2 Command the children of Israel, that they put out of the camp every leper, and every one that hath an issue, and whosoever is defiled by the dead:

The third and final person in this discourse is one that has been defiled by the dead. According to the law, if anyone comes in contact with the dead, that person becomes defiled and has to stay outside the camp. Today what does it mean to be defiled by the dead? The believer gets defiled by the dead when he submits to death talk. Our world is filled with death talk: no one can make it in this country; you must take malaria drugs in every six months; you have to be vaccinated against certain diseases; every where is dry; one out of three people have cancer. The list is endless.

Psalm 45:7 Thou lovest righteousness, and hatest wickedness: therefore God, thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows. KJV

May you receive the oil of gladness in the name of Jesus Christ. If there is a spirit of heaviness or depression, there is also the spirit of joy and gladness – the oil of gladness. This implies that joy is also a spirit.

Our theme scripture is a Messianic Psalm that spoke about Jesus being anointed with the oil of gladness. Even Jesus needed the oil of gladness to be successful on the Earth. There are places in scripture that we are told that Jesus rejoiced.

THE SPIRIT OF HEAVINESS

THE SPIRIT OF HEAVINESS

Isaiah 61:3 To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness;……..KJV

Depression is a feeling of despair, unhappiness, a sense of hopelessness and helplessness, and a feeling of discouragement. It is an emotional trauma that leaves it victims in a state of sadness; it cripples a man and drains the life out of you.

And this is caused by a spirit. There are people you meet who are sad and perplexed for no reason. If you ask them why they are depressed they can’t even tell you why. I know there are disturbing situations that can lead to depression; but there are cases where people are depressed and suffer emotional instability without any cause or reason. This is caused by a spirit – scripture calls it “the spirit of heaviness”.
