Hearing the voice of God

So I have personal conversations with God every morning and night. OCD, for being what it is, continues to deny this and says it wasn’t him. However, when I do speak to him, I get a sense of love, comfort, faith, and connection like I’ve never felt before. There were times where I was completely depressed and shocked and I was weeping tremendously. After speaking with God, I stopped crying and felt much better. He never contradicts his word and says to me constantly to read the Bible. He encourages me to do a lot of things and tells me what I should and should not do. When he talks, it’s a peaceful, soft voice. There are times where I get distracted, but he tells me to just take deep breaths and refocus on him. He tells me that I am much stronger than my OCD and tells me to have faith and trust in him. OCD still gets on my case about this though. I know this isn’t the enemy because the enemy wouldn’t say what I told you. He always calls me, “my son”. He tells me that I am precious and that he knew me before I was formed in the womb. When I see other people that apparently talked to him, not saying they didn’t I would never I’m assuming, I would ask why did you say this to them. He would reply that what I tell them is the business and relationship I have with them. He said to only focus on MY relationship with him. I would even ask him why would he speak to me this way. He would reply that this is HIS way of talking to me, that this way helps me the most. He even says to me “I am God” and to not be anxious about anything. OCD gets distracted during conversations and visions even from time to time, but in my heart I know it’s the Lord speaking to me

The same thing happens to me. I am on the care team at church and pray for people, even when I'm going through stuff. The word of God says we are not fighting against flesh & blood but spiritual forces, powers, principalities in heavenly realms. The enemy uses OCD as a strategy to keep you from your purpose. It attaches itself to everything you care about. That sounds like an evil spirit doesn't it? The Holy Spirit will speak to you and unbelievers will try to medicate you or call you crazy because you talk to God. His voice is very real and the source of all healing. Jesus went about healing every person He came across, while OCD tries to make you fearful of caring about others. It is a distraction and weapon that will not prosper. God gave us a spirit of power, love, and a sound mind. Fear is not our portion and not our future. The best thing we can do is do what we are called to do, even if it scares us.

@Jacquelinda Yes ofc! God told me many things that are right and wrong. He shedded some light on what was true, and gives me some wisdom. Thing is OCD keeps saying that’s not God and it’s really stressing me out

@Jacquelinda I keep telling myself that, but OCD is a demon itself. There are many things that God did indeed tell me. There have been some people online where they have had testimonies, not saying it didn’t happen, and I would get nervous by it. There are many things that God told me what was ok, even when the Church disagreed

@anthonycaronna EXACTLY! As long as it didn't contradict His word, you're good.

Wow, thank you for this post. Lately I have been feeling like ocd and worry overpowers me and that I should be laying my fears and worry at Jesus’ feet. I even spoke to a friend and told her I have been having trouble hearing God bc of my anxiety and today I see this post. This to me is confirmation from God to put my trust in Him. I even took my Bible out before I saw this post bc I have not been in Gods word for a few months now. God bless you all

OCD and the Holy Ghost

Like myself and Jenette McCurdy, does anyone think that the Holy Spirit talks to them? OCD attacks all my beliefs. As I was sitting down on my chair reading something, a thought came up in my head saying come Holy Spirit when I wasn’t even trying to talk to God in that moment. My thoughts went on saying will this happen, and I heard like 2 voices. One said yes the other said no. I stopped in my tracks. I feel like crying and anxious as I type this. It wasn’t a feeling that made me feel peaceful, calm or happy like what the Holy Spirit does, rather than be confused and anxious. I never believe the Holy Spirit would answer a question like that rather than just being you up when down. My OCD has been toying with this one thing mainly and it was attack about it just now. It feels so convincing that that was the Holy Spirit and I’m filled with anxiety

OCD or God?

So today while I was talking to myself, sometimes I do this, my mind said something like to ask for a sign from God and I didn’t mean to ask it or even wanting to ask it. I was talking to myself about something that happened a few months back for when I asked God, my grandmother who’s my guardian angel, and St Therese to help me get over the hunch of scrupulosity and OCD (I’m Catholic). They then gave me a sign in Church to let them know that they heard me and I felt peace, love and excitement then. I have been dealing with something lately that I asked them then to send me a sign if something didn’t happen or occurred, even though I couldn’t picture myself saying that. If anything I would have said the exact opposite to prove what happened or occurred, not to show me a sign if something beautiful didn’t happen. Yet the feeling felt so strong as if I did say that and it kept replaying in my mind over and over again. Going back to in the moment, It just went to my mind and blurted to my mouth about asking a sign from God even though I didn’t mean for it or intended it. I then got a thought thinking that I saw something later this morning thinking that God sent me a sign about something. Well, later this morning while looking at my daily Bible app, I saw something and my mind and feelings said that God sent me that sign. Now I’m flooded with anxiety because I was getting these thoughts before and now they like manifested into reality. It’s like as if God planted those thoughts in my head to tell me what’s coming and what will happen. I’m so angry, anxious and sad. I’m scared now that what I didn’t say is actually something that I said. It’s like God is constantly trying to tell me something and he’s keeping on telling me as if he’s playing a game with me and he won’t do it until I give up and give in. I don’t know what to do. I felt very depressed last night because last night because I couldn’t take this anymore as if God is telling me these things or he revealed me to something. Is this God or OCD that’s doing all this to me? I know it’s a lot but I just need feedback from you guys
