These bible verses for depression have changed my life. In this post, I want to help show you how to believe what God says and hide His Word in your heart so you can win against depression. With time, these bible verses for depression will renew your mind. But before I delve into all this, let me give you a little background.

You cannot follow both God and the world. When someone is “diagnosed,” the world tells them they are a “mentally ill.” But God’s Word says that as a Christian, you possess a sound mind – the mind of Christ, to be exact. So which is true? Whichever you believe.

Below are my top 7 game-changing Bible verses for depression. These truly helped me renew my mind and change when I started to believe them!

1. My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

(Philippians 4:19, ESV) God says He will meet all (not just some) of our needs. That includes our mental needs as well. The things you are worrying about in the future? They are taken care of. That’s a promise!

2. The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.“The Lord is my portion,” says my soul, “therefore I will hope in him.”

(Lamentations 3:22-24) Please go back and read the beginning of the chapter. The writer is in despair and feels like there is no hope, until he remembers the above verse. You may feel awful, but your feelings are not the truth. God IS faithful and he IS enough to get us through the hardest of times.

Sometimes we wonder how we will have the strength to get through another day. Neuroscientist Dr. Caroline Leaf explains that

His mercies are literally new every morning –  we have new brain cells to use for that day! Our brain is continually being renewed.

3. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

(Philippians 4:13) This is a verse that most people can quote by heart, but do you truly know it? You are equal to any task or obstacle placed in your path – not through your own strength, but through the strength of Christ.

4. My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

(Psalm 73:26) Sometimes we seriously feel like we have no strength left, and that is okay. When our body is exhausted and our mind is frazzled, we do not give up – because God’s strength never runs out, and His provisions are unending.

5. No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

(1 Corinthians 10:13) When you’re depressed, it is tempting to believe that “it’s just too hard.” No, it’s not. God has promised He will not give you more than you are able to handle, and it’s impossible for Him to lie. If you are brought to it, God will bring you through it.

6. His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us…

(2 Peter 1:3 NKJV) Feel like you lack something? This verse says He has already given it to you. Everything. To live your life and to live it in a godly fashion. How? Through the knowledge of Him (Jesus). In the Bible, you will find everything you need to face any challenge.

7. God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

(2 Timothy 1:7 NKJV) Being fearful does not come naturally – it is learned. This verse says that the spirit God has given us is powerful, full of love for others , with a sound (stable) mind. He made you perfectly – He did not create a weakling.
