BLESSED with BIPOLAR

by Richard Jarzynka, author of Blessed with Bipolar

Here are some scripture-based “fightin’ words” that I roar at bipolar when some of its traits that don’t seem like such a blessing start to take a run at me. [I fully understand and accept that there are those who will say that all of this is b.s. That I am delusional. And I say, "I love you still, but you don't know what you're missing and I wouldn't be much of a friend if I didn't try to tell you. And I will NEVER back down.]

(Tip: It helps to stand up, throw a fist in the air, stomp around like your Superman, and growl, when you’re throwing these words at bipolar. I know that may look crazy. So what? We are Bipolar!)

Jesus, the Christ’s, Fightin’ Words

“The Lord is a warrior! The Lord is His Name.” (Exodus 15:3) And I am His kid! With His warrior Spirit living in me! In Jesus Name, I break depression and it must go!

“I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” (Philippians 4:13)

THE SAME HOLY SPIRIT WHO RAISED CHRIST FROM THE DEAD IS THE HOLY SPIRIT WHO LIVES IN ME (Romans  8:11) Against us, bipolar doesn’t have a chance.

[Have you forgotten to stand up, throw a fist in the air, stomp around like your Superman, and growl? It's time to get up!]

In Christ I am MORE than a conqueror! (Romans 8:37)

I know that in ALL THINGS God is working for my absolute best. (Romans 8:28)

I have been through the furnace of humiliation because I am God’s chosen man! [Sirach 2:5 (also called, Ecclesiasticus) Catholic Bible]

I am a Saint, filled with the Holy Spirit. And today I will walk in the power of the Holy Spirit!

The very Son of God loves me so much that He died in my place. And He will NEVER let me go! Depression doesn’t stand a chance.

“Greater is He who is in me than he who is in the world.” (1John 4:4)

God is preparing me for something greater, something wonderful, something GODLY!

THE SOVEREIGN, OMNIPOTENT  CREATOR-KING OF THE UNIVERSE IS MY DAD AND HE LOVES ME MORE THAN I CAN POSSIBLY IMAGINE!

Roar these words at bipolar. Roar them at depression. And believe it. Convince yourself. Stand on the word of  God. They are the promises of GOD from before the dawn of time! They are eternal, faithful, and never-failing.

(Again – I fully understand and accept that there are those who will say that all of this is b.s. That I am delusional. And I say, “I love you still, but you don’t know what you’re missing and I wouldn’t be much of a friend if I didn’t try to tell you. And I will NEVER back down.)
