I love how Lecrae is transparent about his journey with depression. I knew I followed him for a reason because he speaks on things that resonates with us as a community. I hope someone unloads the full episode of this interview.

Had a very similar experiences man. Still struggle with it.

Thanks for sharing your story Lecrae! God Bless You! 🙌

2021 was the hardest, darkest time of my life. I was physically, emotionally, mentally, spiritually BROKEN. But now I feel genuinely GRATEFUL and BLESSED that I had to go through that phase because GOD has graciously REVEALED Himself to me in miraculous ways. I am fortunate that He allowed me to know Him at a very young age, but this year is SPECIAL because of what WE (yes, GOD and me) have been through last year. He showed me how POWERFUL prayers truly are when I started to focus on WHO HE IS rather than who I am, on WHAT HE CAN DO rather than what I deserve. The experience was MAGICAL. He showed up BIG TIME and assured me that HE is indeed a LISTENING and RESPONDING GOD. Oh how my faith has skyrocketed as a result! Now more than ever, I have very bright HOPE for my future because I personally experienced how RELIABLE God is. And for that I will forever be grateful. GLORY BE TO GOD, MY EVER FAITHFUL FATHER. ♥️♥️♥️ To everyone who's struggling right now, please know that GOD LOVES YOU. He wants to help you and give you peace. Please surrender your burdens to Him and allow Him to move in your life. "Because he loves Me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges My Name. He will call on Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him." (Psalm 91:14-15) Please hold on to this bible verse because WHATEVER GOD SAYS, HE FULFILLS. 🛐

We are loved Unconditionally where we are at right here right now in Jesus name! LeCraes story helped me remember this.

Lecrae your my boy man and I pray Gods blessings and freedom and healing from your past love your music and God bless you and your family

Thank you

would’ve been nice to see more of this interview but nice clip i guess

That comment hit - “you’re just a more financially stable version of yourself.” As a middle class man, I still am cynical that money wouldn’t bring me happiness. It shows my weakened faith.

Shout out lecrae keep doing your thing big homie

Depression doesn’t discriminate.

Having money to treat depression once you admit to it is important

Good luck bro

God has good plans for you, but you have to follow his will his way. Submit to his will. His way is the best way. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." -Jeremiah 29:11

But wait, not all or personally believe much of the diagnosed clinically depressed have actual reasoning, or "begin with, as a result of..."

It’s quite brave of him, considering he’s black, male, rich and famous it must have been difficult for him.

If your depression is due to anxiety, "Have not I sent you?" Joshua 1:9 If your depression is due to hopelessness, "Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for me?" (Jer. 32:27) If your depression is due to discouragement, "The Lord is near to those who have a broken heart, And saves such as have a contrite [crushed] spirit. Ps. 34:18

You see you can have it all and still be miserable...so money and fame don't mean nothing.

Jesus heals and I pray right now that the Holy Spirit comes and lives inside all who read this. The blood of Jesus heals you of all depression and addictions and all demonic things related to them. All ties will be broken right now in Jesus mighty name. Amen.

Gen 1:27. "And God made man according to His image and likeness and gave them authority". That got lost through the fall of man. But is freely returned by Jesus Holy Blood and Holy Spirit IN us. The Gospels were written by man like you and me. Eyewitnesses that saw God walking this earth in Christ. Healing all, raising the dead, casting out demons, controlling nature. He said: "If you see Me, you see the Father. The Father and I are one. You will understand that the Father is IN me and I am IN you. I will send Holy Spirit, the same as Me, He will be IN you, guide you into truth and will give you power. The same miracles I do, you will do too, etc ,etc". It is in John 14 up to 17. It is the ultimate conclusion of Gods word. Jesus, born by the Spirit of God, filled with the Spirit of God....... God manifested on earth in a human body. Completely normal btw. In Genesis He made man according to His own image and likeness. So what's the big fuzz that Jesus could not be the exact image of God in the flesh? He just is. Evenmore. Now by His Spirit we transform back to the same image! Hence the countless miracles i already have experienced. God has come full circle! "As in the first Adam ALL died (lost the divine nature), so also ALL were made alive IN Christ to walk in Zoë = divine life again." Rom 5:18 The divine life the first Adam let go of has been freely returned to us by Christ's blood and Spirit. Because your imams never understood this, they mock, scoff, put it down, contradict it.... leading you away from your true identity in God. Heartbreaking. Same happens in Christianity btw. Most Christians think it is all about trying to do good, dodging hell and going to heaven some day. Heaven already came down in Spiritform, for you to be indwelled by, be changed and walk in unselfish divine power and love. "Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty [emancipation from bondage, true freedom]. And we all, with unveiled face, continually seeing as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are progressively being transformed *into His image* from [one degree of] glory to [even more] glory, which comes from the Lord, [who is] the Spirit." 2 Corinthians 3:17‭-‬18 AMP

"I woke up depressed after a night of binge drinking" Yes, that's called having a hangover lol 🤦

Who wants fame? Why would you even want fame? Strange to me.

Huh but what if your crippling depression is because you're broke 🤔

You left the Lord's calling, rejected Him. I pray for you to come back to Jesus, YESHUA the Christ, your Creator.

Why has jesus brought nothing but sufferring into everyone of my 44 years of life?

He should be thanking the white man for his success

Because you compromised the moment the spotlight came. That’s why you’re depressed. Your spirit is conflicted.
