You said you have a relationship with God.. remember who and who's you are. Your not beyond repair, you have a purpose and a fight so you have to put your foot down and hunt your fears down and stop letting them hunt you and corner you. The Lord didn't give you a spirit of fear, but a mind of peace and love and discipline. 2 Timothy 1:7 I could of wrote what you wrote above at one point.... I decided to fight and never quit.... we are children of God remember that. Face your fears sit with them ..... you ever need a friend you reach out....

I can go to God Most High to hide. I can go to God All-Powerful for protection. I say to you Lord, “You are my place of safety, my fortress. My God, I trust in you.” God you will save me from hidden dangers and from deadly diseases. I can go to you for protection. God you will cover me like a bird spreading its wings over its babies. I can trust God to surround and protect me like a shield. I will have nothing to fear at night and no need to be afraid of enemy arrows during the day. I will have no fear of diseases that come in the dark or terrible suffering that comes at noon. A thousand people may fall dead at my side or ten thousand right beside me, but nothing bad will happen to me! All I will have to do is watch, and I will see that the wicked are punished. I trust in the Lord for protection. I have made God Most High my place of safety. So nothing bad will happen to us. No diseases will come near my home. God will command his angels to protect mine wherever we go. Their hands will catch us so that we will not hit our foot on a rock. We will have power to trample on lions and poisonous snakes. The Lord says, “If someone trusts me, I will save them. I will protect my followers who call to me for help. When my followers call to me, I will answer them. I will be with them when they are in trouble. I will rescue them and honor them. I will give my followers a long life and show them my power to save.” Psalms 91:1-16 ERV https://bible.com/bible/406/psa.91.1-16.ERV+

sorry if I wrote too much. I just read your post and it really put you on my mind. I hate to see people feel that away. God loves you. We all have sufferings of some form on earth. Nobody is exempt. But there is a peace that surpasses understanding with faith in him.

Hey I would like to thank you for your words. They led me to verses that truly have shown me that our Lord protects his children. I am in a mind field battle with my thoughts that started off against Him and The Holy Spirit convincing me I was unforgivable and then they became that I am a Satanist and that I don't even believe in God and that I am not a child of God. I ignore the thoughts as much as I can but not setting them straight gives me anxiety and not thinking positive things about our Father makes me also have anxiety. I have had brief episodes is thoughts of other negative nature's but am able to shrug those off quicker and easier. God loves us. I just don't want to have these thoughts against such an amazing Father.

Your welcome and I understand. We have to be able to sit with the thought as uncomfortable as it is and remember thoughts aren't our values... 55,000 thoughts cross the human mind a day, its unthinkable to attach meaning to them all. You live in a fallen world and your exposed to things that you don't like they trigger you. Face them, yes they exist yes they are a reality for some. You serve the God and he has integrity . Use the word as not a compulsion, rewire your mind with the words through a steady relationship . The mind will change. The bible says to renew and transform the mind (Roman's is a great book FYI) Its ever changing.

I read this everyday, at least most at 9am. Strong word of encouragement remember that the word is the sword, and prayer really does work. Don't make it a reassurance , face your fears because your strong and you live in a sinful world where weird distressing things always cross people's minds. People don't share everything, only what they want you to see, even the ones you think are perfect have problems. Some just get good at playing hide n seek with them... you are a warrior and you hunt your fears down and conquer them. Your perspective will determine alot of our outcome. Your normal, your wonderfully made, you have just given yourself to insecurities and worry and its hijacked our way of thinking... GUILTY MYSELF. LET'S turn it around rewire our minds... read books, exercise, pray daily, journal, less tv, walks, be and think on the things you want to be and be INTENTIONAL on doing them. Most importantly face these fears, it's empowering when your pursuing them instead of you constantly feel being pursued... use the tools and your ERP. Expose it, in the bible it says it this way....Ephesians 5:11 English Standard Version 11 Take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them. God is still in control!

I am persuaded beyond doubt (am sure) that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things impending and threatening nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. (verses. 38–39)

You have to accept the realities and pains this world has, but in no way does this mean you agree or want these outcomes. God knows your heart friend, he knows the fight your in, you cannot deteriorate or separate the love he has for you. That's the assurance that he left a peace that surpasses all understanding to you. It is a fight, but he gives rest to those who lean on him. There is much healing in true repentance.. we often don't engage that need of repentance as we should. I traveled down a road of understanding that and it has opened my eyes and my ability to be closer to God. Face your fears, and remember we are strongest on our knees.... reach out whenever

Thank you brother. What book is that verse from you originally sent it was a verse that gave me peace when this all started. The OCD started for me as a worrying about having every bad disease known to having a conversation with a coworker about the unpardonable sin and then my mind began to insult . I went to youtube videos to make sure I had not committed such sin. Then as I started to go back to church the thoughts got worse and worse then when then went away they became the thoughts that I am not a believer that I am an atheist, that I reject the love and faith . Sometimes I will be triggered by the mere word reject or renounce as my mind puts beautiful Godly things after these words automatically. All this started and has been going on for about 2 months including the health mind battle. I would much rather worry about having cancer than not loving my God and my Father. I thank you for your comfort.

Paul had thoughts and fears and his works were immeasurable. People think of porn or punching a person at church while praise .... its just a thought.... it doesn't determine the individual you are. If you go do those things it does, if your looking at stuff consistently you shouldn't and opening those doors without attempting not to .... the unforgivable sin is not asking for forgiveness or genuinely repenting.

Yea I was assured I had not committed the sin but my mind at first told me to continue to seek assurance that I had not even though I knew i didn't so it then tried to convince me that I just don't believe and reject and am an atheist and I'm like then why would I be in such stress mind you don't make sense. You are a liar OCD mind. God is good.

I appreciate this I will read Romans. I am such a joking person who loves comicbook movies and superheroes and martial arts now i just feel like everything is wrong to watch and that I have to be doing something that is just in Gods eyes or else I won't feel happy. But everything feels unjust to me now cause I'm afraid of the thoughts it could create. Before I got COVID in December I never had any of this. God knows the trial I am in and when I will overcome. You are right I just have to survive this as He loves me and He shows me mercy everyday. I assume you never dealt with negative thoughts like this ? Or is your OCD different ?

I think you would benefit greatly from reading Roman's. Many have and do. Myself included. It is about knowing who you are in Christ eyes. Love you man... your Gonna have to bear the battle for your mind as you have a enemy who wants it. But take heart in Jesus, for he overcome the world! Your on your way.... face the thoughts sit with them, Jesus did it in the desert for 40 days. It's the Wilderness friend.... you love God, so now you got a fight on your hands. The key here is trust God for the he places the steps of the righteous man

I have had those and I am a person that aspires to help seed hope in others, yet sometimes my issue is I think I could snap and harm those around me.

God is good and merciful. I must always look to him. I know I will make it through. I appreciate the comfort you have shared with me as someone who knows what I'm going through. I never wanted these thoughts but they are to become a trial that turns me into someone who can help others.

I’ve said and done so many hurtful things growing up, especially in elementary and middle school. I was very passive aggressive and mean for a majority of my life, and I’ve hurt peoples feelings. I’m no longer like that now, but every single thing I’ve ever done wrong replays in my head constantly, from the moment I wake up to the second I go to sleep. I know I deserve to feel the chronic guilt and shame, so I feel even more guilty pitying myself. It’s eating me alive, I’m so scared. I know people must hate me, and they have every right to. feel like I don’t deserve to have moments of happiness because I’ve taken that ability away from someone before. I’m not diagnosed, but this has been going on for years and I’m scared to talk to anyone about it because I fear they would look at me differently knowing I’ve hurt someone’s feelings. I feel like a monster. It’s ruining my life and I don’t know what to do.

I’m feeling kind of sad cause today was not a really good day in terms of my ocd. I was feeling kind of foggy/numb and that send me to spiraling. I’m 21 years old currently studying but my family has been having trouble with money for the last couple years(we’re just me and my mom) and I kinda want to get a job but everything is far from my home and I wouldn’t be able to return back at night, also it’s either way more expensive to move or the schedule wouldn’t let me take my classes. The point is that because of that every time my mom is stress tends to treat me bad, she speaks to me like I’m stupid or she just screams to nothing cursing all life and everything and that actually makes me feel soo bad and guilty for not doing anything, I know it’s hard for me to get a job that actually helps us without quitting school but that doesn’t stop me from feeling like I’m a burden. I want to help, I want to maybe hug her or something but I know she will be angrier and probably will reject it. So that’s it, I just feel like she punishes me for the stress she’s carrying and I get it but one day is happy and it feels like all love and the next is treating me like that, Idk it’s hard (also I feel like I shouldn’t be saying this cause it’s all my fault) 🫤

I feel like I’ll never lead a normal life again with OCD, my thoughts have begun to be convince especially about POCD. I feel like so sad and down that this will be my life forever. I’ll never get to fall in love again without intrusive thoughts. I’ll never be worth falling in love with. I can never be intimate again. I’m just done, my life is over. I can’t even look at my nephew and niece anymore without the smile fading. It feels like I’m so nasty and then my brain convinces me this is how I feel. That there’s some part of me that is a p*do and that’s it. I’m a disgusting human being for that. I just feel hopeless
