For Christians

christian here! OCD is a mental disorder we have because, yes, our bodies and brains are imperfect due to the fall of man into sin. but that doesn’t mean that you have OCD because you’re sinning or living in sin. beware of those who try to make you feel guilt & shame for something you have absolutely no control order. God loves us & comforts us; he does not want us to feel shame. your OCD will try to convince you otherwise & make you feel guilty for sins you haven’t committed. continue to give uncertain — maybe I sinned, maybe I didn’t. maybe this past even happened, maybe it didn’t, but I will never find the absolutely certainty I am seeking. as christians, we’re blessed to always have God’s grace & mercy within us regardless. Cling to the Lord’s word — he will never forsake you! God bless you my friend

s a Christian myself you are not going through ocd because of sin, you are human and the Lord told us we will have trials and tribulations. Its the ocd talking to you and convincing your mind of it. Ask in prayer that Jesus walk with you during these times and always of course, lean on him he will help. If your familiar with the "Footprints" prayer recite it, if not look it up and read it, itll help. Just remember your not who your thoughts are (harder said thern doner, I know) Be blessed 0 0

You aren’t experiencing OCD because of Sin or because you are being punished by God. All people have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God as it says in the Bible. So if that were true all people would experience OCD and they do not. This is also why the Bible says to take your thoughts captive… take them captive before they enter your heart and eventually turn into an outward expression. It’s also why the Bible says to renew your mind daily. All this to say God knew people would struggle with thoughts and mental battles. I would also point out that church and community is great, but don’t forget that church is made up of people that have issues and make mistakes. Jesus is the only perfect person without sin. Make sure you are confiding in people that are giving you biblical advice. If anyone says anything that’s contrary to or goes against what the Bible says then that advice should not be followed or listened to.

You should look into the work of Mark DeJesus. He has a YouTube channel and a lot of material of how to battle OCD as a Christian. His book “the OCD healing journey” is such a great tool and has helped me in my faith walk walking with God while battling OCD. He breaks everything down so simple in the book & everything is biblical it has helped me tremendously!! Also his YouTube channel has helped me tremendously as well where he talks. Lot about OCD as a Christian
