During my prayer time I was praying for a family whose 19 year old son died by suicide. It grieved my heart and the Holy Spirit gave this powerful revelation to comfort family and friends who are struggling with the painful loss of a loved one from suicide.
Suicide : A cancer of the soul
Cancer in our physical body usually can’t be seen, until it’s destroying affects takes complete control. It can be arrested and put in remission through medical treatment and prayer, but too often it will emerge with a vengeance overtaking the body. The battle is finally lost in death. It Leaves the families devastated after possible years of medical interventions.
There is a cancer to the soul. It attacks the mind, will and emotions of a person. At first it can’t be seen by others. It begins to torment the soul often leaving the person helpless. Soon others see the cruel affect it has and the struggle to defeat the advancing enemy. Doctors, family, and friends try frantically to intervene to stop the invading darkness. Some find their healing and others find remission for a season. For others, the darkness consumes the light and, in a moment, the afflicted soul loses hope. The battle is lost in death. Like the death of the body from cancer, the family may have spent years fighting the cancer of the soul. This evil cancer may have won the battle, but Jesus has won their war!
