Hey, recently I’ve been REALLY down and depressed. I haven’t been like this since before I gave my life to Christ on the 13th of August 2011.
I feel lost and honestly a bit scared too. I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I’ve prayed to God for strength he does help, but I feel like I’m letting God down. I’m his child I shouldn’t be feeling this way.
Don’t be down. Get on the bible n read it a lot. Study it. When u feel like u have let him down its a strenghting processes. Pray and read
Thanks Im feeling alot better. I always feel like crying and I dont know why. But I know God loves me.
My favourite bible verse is Romans 8:31 “if God is for us who can be against us” it reminds me that my daddy God is always there.
Sis,
Praise the Lord!
I want to tell u something, I may be wrong. If wrong I am sorry.
In christ we will be strong, but our strength is like a battery. When we stop praying we will feel week and restless.
Sometimes this may be when something against us is on its way, since we have God’s Holy sprit with us He can identify our forth coming problem and Holy Sprit will pass it to our sprit since we are into Christ. That is how we feel a pain in our heart when something bad is happening to our loved ones. ( This is purely my thought if wrong my apologize) This is just to make us sit and pray. This gift is only for people into Christ.
When ever it happens to me I ll sit and pray I have got a small book with 1000 lines of thanks giving to Lord I ll read, which will take 45 mins and also I will just sit and go for tongue prayer. Tongue prayer can identify our basic worries and it will remove all 100%.
But, some times peace will be instant within less than 1 minute. Other times it will take 1 day to settle. If you are not yet blessed with tongue, please ask God, beg him and sit in fasting prayer – He will sure give, Amen
I encourage you not to let depressing emotions dictate how you are going to feel in your life. You are greater than your emotions and God is greater than all your troubles in life.
Isaiah 43:25 says, “I-yes, I alone- am the one who blots out your sins for my own sake and will never think of them again”. 1 John 1:9 says, “but if we confess our sins to him, he is faithful and just to forgive us and to cleanse us from every wrong”.
These scriptures declare that God has literally removed from His own memory our old life of sin. I can’t think of anything in life that makes me happier than the fact that you and I both get to spend billions upon billions of years in eternity with our Father guilt free because of Jesus Christ.
Jeremiah 29:11-14 says, “‘for I know the plans I have for you,’ says the Lord. ‘They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you pray, I will listen. If you look for me in earnest, you will find me when you seek me. I will be found by you,’ says the Lord”.
Be encouraged. God loves you so much.
Blessings,
Keegan
WOW your comments and scriptures is so encouraging.
They remind me how God has always been there, even though I had turned away from him. When I was ready to give up, he never gave up on me.
Praise God, he is so AMAZING!!!
im just going to shoot this right up front and straight out…you are a new Christian and you are learning and being taught by God..there is something else you need from God and that is the Baptism of the Holy Spirit..read about it in Acts and find a church that is spirit filled so you can grow in your Christian walk..we dont walk by feelings but rather in the spirit of Christ..i pray you will find someone who can tell you more than what i have about the baptism..this is not in water but in the spirit of God..seek and you will find in Jesus name..Congratulations on your new born again experience..
I have been encouraged greatly by all your comments.
You should check out my testimony. (my story)
you should not get scared. you should be strong. that’s satan’s work trying to make u feel lost. also God gives a trail to see your faith.so never give up. instead be strong in prayers/fasting will help u.
may God be praised.
As others have said thats satan having a go. I had the same thing and couldn’t work out why when I asked I asked god all i got in reply was endlessly finding myself hearing or reading bible passages of gods love and confirming his salvation till one evening when this message was coming up more than ever and i realised that all along god has been reassuring me and id been letting satan decieve me. I reckin its his biggest attack method against new christians
Try rebuking both any demonic influence as well as the actual depression etc in jesus name next time it happens. Also leaving worshp music on really low vol 24/7 helps
Dont stress its just satan with his knickers in a knot cos he lost one (you)
It would be a good idea to walk not by your feeling but by God’s Word. Our feelings are subject to change but God’s Word won’t.
