She also confessed with great strength that she prayed, fasted and believed for God to take her out of that situation. She proclaimed it didn’t work, her miracle didn’t come, thats when she said she went to the doctor and took medication, after some time the feelings of depression went away.
The Discussion was about being made whole, all of them confessed to suffering burnout. Does burnout lead to depression, I just cant help but feel there is a lot of this going on in the church. And because of the fear of backlash you might receive from the church people hold it in, and the problems branches into other areas of our life.

Let me see if I get this right. At a big time Pentecostal conference, a woman said she prayed and sought God but got nothing out of that, then went to the physicians and got her some results from their medications, and she got a standing ovation for that testimony?
No wonder she couldn't get an answer from God, and no wonder so many are depressed and suffering. Sounds like the conference should have been called Because We Ain't Got It Anymore 2020.
