I feel like I’ve just been stuck on a loop and I have no progress. I started a new medicine and it seemed to help a little but I get angry easily, and that leads to intrusive thoughts more and sometimes I don’t care about that hurts because I don’t mean these things. I just feel like there’s no hope anymore if any Christians have any Bible verses about you through OCD or any advice I would really appreciate it
Christian here! So sorry to hear that you aren’t doing well! I really like to say to myself 2 Timothy 1:7 when I’m struggling. Friend, God loves you. He forgives you. He understands that our minds are wrestling with OCD and he gives us grace for that. His strength is made perfect in our weakness❤️Praying for you!!
2 Corinthians 12 For this thing I besought the Lord thrice, that it might depart from me. 9And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. For whatever reason this thorn is in us, yet his grace is sufficient for us. I’m sure we will learn to live with this, and walk with God in spite of our infirmities. We just keep doing therapy and learn to not react to our thoughts, the Bible says they are vanity anyways.
John 19:30, the price was paid willingly, sometimes we get angry it’s an emotion we definitely need to let out and it comes with a lot of thoughts that increase the anger but it’s okay because they’re not your thoughts sit with them and let your anger out
I know it feels like there is no hope, but that is just the OCD. The OCD is not real! It really has nothing to do with your salvation. You are safe, despite the fact that the OCD tells you that you are not okay. I know how this feels. My OCD tells me I am unsafe every day. But that is just how OCD works. It's not actually true. Do you have a therapist currently? Do you have Christians you can talk to who can encourage you???? That might really be good
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.
So about 2 years ago I gave my life to Jesus. I've always been a "Christian" but never truly lived liked one. Honestly never truly felt love for them until 2 years ago. It was the best couple months of my life!!! I felt so happy and loved and unstoppable! I thought this fire for God & Jesus will never burn out. One day I had a thought about is God real? It bothered me so bad and I went into a massive spiral. Doubting everything. My faith. if I was good enough. Am I really saved? Do I have enough faith? Is my doubt real? Is it too much? Have these blasphemous made God not want me anymore? Or Jesus? :( But I knew I was and that they were real! I know I've heard them. Then I started having horrible blasphemous thoughts but then it would go back to doubting thoughts then back to the blasphemous ones. I hated the thoughts and doubts. The thoughts are so mean towards God, Jesus & HS. It’s anywhere from evil thoughts to cussing thoughts to rejection thoughts/denying. Demonic thoughts. Literally anything bad you could think of! Even thoughts of if I really love them or wanna follow them. I learned about OCD from what I've looked up but I've been dealing with this for about 2 years now. It's hard. I doubt if it’s OCD. Definitely feel like I'm trapped or my faith isn't the same. Which makes me sad because I want my faith! I feel like I've gotten lazy and honestly that I don't deserve them or am "too far gone" from them. I feel like idk how to be a Christian or how to have faith or just exist tbh. I wanna love God & Jesus! I want faith! I just feel kinda stuck. Has anyone gone through this or has advice or tips?
