I’m so scared
I can’t. I’m so scared. I don’t want to deny the HOLY SPIRIT. I keep having intrusives that make me question my real intentions.

Sorry you're going through this. Try to take a step back and simply rest in the Lord. Remember he tells us to cast all anxiety upon him (1 Peter 5:7). Try to pray calmly and slowly, trusting God. "Lord I love you, I need you, you are my foundation." "You know all things and you know my heart." "You tell me not to fear, help me to leave this anxiety at your feet." Pay attention to the nature of your prayer. If you are very frightened, and are praying for the same thing over and over again, or repenting of the same thought many times per day - that is *compulsive* prayer. You are using prayer as a short-term compulsive response to anxiety in a way that is not truly addressing the problem - our inability to accept uncertainty. Make sure you're praying slowly, calmly, trying to trust, focus on each word. If your prayer looks more compulsive, then you need to resist praying in that fashion, and try to sit with the uncertainty and resist compulsions. You can do this. One moment at a time. God bless.

I struggle with the same thing. I think the fact that you care about it and are worried about it is a sign that you haven’t committed it. But I know with OCD sometimes that is not reassuring. I know it is so tormenting, but what helped me is realizing these intrusive thoughts are not my thoughts. But it feels so real sometimes. It sucks. God has been faithful and has brought me through very hard seasons of these thoughts. Something that has comforted me is that we as believers are sealed with the Holy Spirit. And also just reading the promises of God, like Isaiah 43, Romans 8:15, Colossians 3. Psalms 91, Deuteronomy 31:6. God bless, I will pray for you✝️🙏

If the Spirit 'is' Holy, nothing you could do on purpose or on accident could change their unconditional love for you. You're talking about it and practicing. ^_^ Keep it up!

Not seeking reassurance, just prayers
Lately my OCD has been very horrible, it’s been more convincing than ever to the point where I’m genuinely convinced that I like this stuff, when I get a thought, I’ll hear my intrusive thoughts go “oooh, I like that, I’d do that.” and I just don’t freak out nor feel bad, I just feel like I like it even more, and feel like I would do/act on it and like it, and the feeling is strong and it lingers forever? It genuinely feels like I do, and I’m just lying now, i can’t tell if I make these thoughts worse or anything All I remember mostly just being like confused sometimes when these thoughts happen, but since I’m getting strong emotions that I like it, my brain says that means I did and I’m worried about that being true because I don’t understand nor know It’s like I am resisting to like this stuff now, it’s even tougher now than it was before

I’m afraid that I don’t believe in God anymore.
I need some help. I keep having thoughts that I don’t believe in God anymore or that I don’t want to believe in God. I have always believed but I just recently started following him more closely. I did ask for Jesus to come into my heart. But now I’m scared that I have lost my salvation. It’s hard to read and pray and I keep getting thoughts that I don’t believe what I reading or that God won’t forgive the sins that I have done. I have been having panic attacks and I’m afraid I’m going to go to hell or I’m afraid that it’s true and I don’t believe in God. I’m also afraid that since God does know my heart what if it truly isn’t for him. I just need some help I’m afraid I’m never going to get back to normal.
