After being stuck in a pit of depression for several years, Mandisa is back with new music and an even deeper relationship with Christ. This devotional plan, written by Mandisa herself, walks readers through select tracks from her album 'Out Of The Dark,' which is exactly where God brought her out of. If you are battling depression, sadness, despair, or hopelessness, remember that Jesus is the one who lifts us up from the mud and the mire and brings us into His glorious Light!

This 7-day devotional is designed to remind you of the powerful God we serve. Each day is structured around the four steps of prayer: praise, confession, thanksgiving, and intercession, with a fifth section, petition, to pray scripture for yourself. Each day offers new opportunity to talk to God. We pray this devotional encourages God’s peace and power to flow through you so that you can share the love of Christ with others.
