Have you other Christian’s delta major shift spiritually. I don’t know what’s to come but I feel heavy in my spirit and I’m kind of scared. That I’m uncertain and everyone’s emotions are very high right now.
Yesterday was extremely difficult for me. I was weighed down in my spirit like I haven't experienced before. There is major spiritual warfare going on. At times like this it's important, as always, to lean on God's promises from His word. I released the weight to Him and remember the battle belongs to the Lord, and ultimately He is the Victor!!!
@Someone99 Yeah just been so heavy lately idk how to explain it but it’s hard. Idk how to just stop worrying. Pray for me
@Someone99 I really do feel like he’s coming though. Like obviously but I’m scared I’m not ready. But everything that’s been going on He is warning us. And I feel like I can’t even focus on daily things to get my mind off or just like activities because something bigger is coming so I don’t even know what to do
@Someone99 I keep praying to ease my spirit and to just take my burdens but I still feel them
@G C I will certainly pray for you, I have in the past when I read your posts. There are signs everywhere. I was texting my sister a few hours ago and she's experiencing things in her spirit too. Something important to keep on mind, we will always sin until we're in heaven, it's the sin nature. That doesn't mean we're not saved. Salvation is justification, the process of living in this world, sinning, confession and repentance is the process of sanctification. If you received Jesus as your savior, you are saved. It's sealed, your His child forever. My prayer for you is that the Holy Spirit would minister to your spirit and give you peace and confidence knowing you're destiny is secure.
@Someone99 Thank you. Even if I don’t feel close to him. What if I don’t know him that well cuz I’m always afraid of him and his wrath than his love
@G C Your spirit is alive, that's why you're sensitive to these things. Know you're in God's hands, and He won't let you go, even in the events to come.
@G C Cool thing is when we're in Christ, we're shielded from God's wrath. It's all unconditional love.
@Someone99 I feel like I’m compulsively repenting
@G C And that's where OCD messes things up very easily. Something of importance, you mentioned you keep sinning every day... This is very personal to you and certainly is none of anyone else's business, but if it is a sin that is damaging to you, I would encourage you to consider seeking help with it. We'll always have the urge or tendency to sin, but if we're intentionally living a life of sin, that is a valid concern. Losing our temper, saying a curse word, for example is a result of our tendency to sin. Deliberately disobeying is more concerning.
@Someone99 Yeah I feel like it’s just day to day things or when I’m in the middle of a situation and lie or something cuz if i tell the truth ill get in trouble or something or just stress eating for comfort when God should fill the void stuff like that or sabbath days idk just a rabbit hole of things
@G C And God loves you unconditionally. :-) I get it though, like when in the moment I respond in a way that's not right, and even lie to smooth a situation, it'll hit me later, like wtf was that... There's a lot we can do and a lot we can't because so much of those daily things stem from areas in us that need healing. Sometimes we don't want to let God in to those areas, it takes time. But it's important to know that you have received Jesus as your savior and remember that every day. He tells us to pick up our cross daily... Also, His mercies are new every morning. How do you learn? Are you a reader or does audio and video material work better?
@Someone99 Yeah I think more like videos and audio
Please help anyone else here with Religious ocd and is a Christian? My brain is going hay-wire and want to know I'm not alone... what do your thoughts say and how do you overcome compulsions? Im going through a rough moment and feel sick with anxiety and stiff. I want to obey God but my thoughts won't stop. I surrender to the Lord and then I have peace with the compulsions and they go away but the thoughts are the scary part please - is this spiritual or is it mental? Or is it both? Would love to hear a Christians opinion on this... because my thoughts latch on and won't dissappear but I know that the Bible commands us to take control of our thoughts and to renew our minds...yet God has grace for this and mercy for our every need... I know God is in control (completely) and my mind creates a lot of the issues for me without any spiritual stuff (it's a very powerful thing) but it's still scary. Lord help me, I surrender myself to you Jesus, counsel my soul and help me.
I have religious OCD and the thoughts have been becoming really bad. I’ve been hitting myself punching myself screaming quietly if that makes sense pulling my hair out talking to myself nonstop. I can’t even hang out with my family without doing these things or going to another room to do these things, these thoughts of overtaking my life I will always be Christian God is most important to me and I’m so scared because these thoughts are terrible. They’re disgusting they never ending. There’s always something going on in my mind. I don’t understand. I’m scared. I’m turning into a bad person. I don’t wanna dishonor the Lord God, I don’t know if this is just OCD or something else.
I opened one of my old bibles and it was mark 13 talking about Jesus second coming which is what I’ve been thinking about a lot recently because it’s a heavy topic right now and my ocd also clings to that and I try and pray and pray but I wonder if He was speaking to me telling me He is coming soon because I never ever read that bible I just felt like looking at it and now I don’t know what to do with the information if it was confirmation that he’s coming soon I don’t know how soon or he’s telling me to get ready and I’m kind of afraid and don’t know how to find comfort.
