[MOVED] What do I do?

He's already waken you up by translating you from the kingdom of darkness to the kingdom of His Son. Now He says stir yourself up. (Jude 1:20)

I gurantee, by the authority of the holy scripture, that if you ask then you shall receive. take steps to hear His voice. give all your effort to worship Him and seek His heart thru prayer. He will give you what you desire eventually. But don't be surprised if He tests you first. He wants your heart. so here's what I would do before going to bed tonight:

lay still and tell him by faith you're nervous and hurt but you're going to cast all your anxieties on Him. continue to be still and quiet and wait for Him.

I’ve done that before and I have gotten nothing absolutely nothing

what are you wanting? you've spoken before about feelings. and I would submit that you're going to have to work out your salvation with fear and trembling to get those (on a consistent basis) there's a difference between resting and pressing.

but when it comes to salvation, just rest in the gospel of Christ.

if you want more, take steps to draw closer to Him. how we do that is the same way we received Him. the bible says just as we received Him so therefore walk in Him. Faith is your key

Colossians 2:6
hebrews 11:6

it says we know we have Jesus Christ if we operate in the fruits of the Holy Spirit I don’t have any of the fruits which were supposed to have and it doesn’t make since that I cry out to God on a daily and I get nothing we’re supposed to be convicted of our sin that’s what leads us to heaven because that leads us to repent I can fornicate right now and not feel an ounce of conviction that is bad very bad

just keep turning away from as much as you know of your sin, and keep giving as much as you know of yourself to as much as you know to your God. He'll do it

If I’m still getting nowhere after 2 years it’s no hope for me I know for a fact I committed the unforgiveable sin

No you haven't. People who blasphemy the Holy Ghost don't give a flip and wouldn't be concerned about it. But you are going to have to decide if you will continue following Christ or walk away. I say He's worth it.

Greengardener · Oct 30, 2020

For what it's worth, SerenityA, don't get tripped up about feelings. If you are serious about a relationship with God, study what He said, both old and new testaments. As you learn how to walk with Him, walk that way. Fruit doesn't grow on many plants the first or second year. Feelings and faith are different. Faith persists.

That’s not in the Bible that people don’t care if they blaspheme the Holy Spirit how do people just come up with that what brings that idea that you wouldn’t care because all it says is that people who commit it never has forgiveness it doesn’t say they completely don’t care about God I love God and Jesus Christ but I just don’t think that is so I believe if I had the Holy Spirit living inside of me I would be having the fruits of the spirit and I wouldn’t be sitting at home depressed everyday

I’ll keep trying but I’m losing motivation I’m almost ready to just give it up and wait for God to wake me up or speak to me in some type of way

And I’ve been with God for about 2 years before I thought I did the unforgiveable sin and I had all the fruits but after I felt like I did the unforgiveable sin I lost them

You're talking to someone that was duped by the enemy too into believing that I had committed the unpardonable sin. It took counsel from somebody that I trusted and had walked with God a lot longer than I had to finally come to my senses. So I really understand where you're coming from. With that being said, I'm leaving you to God now. My prayer is that you too will come to the conclusion that I did. I'm not sure if you have older Christians in your life or not. But the devil isn't going to win this battle just on the grounds of some trumped up case of you allegedly committing the unpardonable sin. Have a nice life. See you in Heaven? I'll be looking for you.

There is no guarantee that you will feel what you wish to feel or expect to feel. However, I often recommend to people that one of the best ways to deal with a whole host of problems, is to find ways to help others in need. You can volunteer at a local hospital or homeless shelter or food pantry. You could also help an elderly or disabled person in the neighborhood or in your church congregation with shopping or chores. Such could well bring you a level of peace that you do not feel at present. We are told in 1 Peter 4:8 that love covers a multitude of sins.

I just need to feel him in some way I have no motivation to work or do anything in life I have no motivation to pursue anything I’m just super weak and lifeless I need God to wake me up!

Hi Serenity,

Have you heard this :
Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but steadfast love surrounds the one who trusts in the LORD. -Psalms 32:10

So if you want the steadfast love of the Lord to surround you, you need to prepare your heart by trusting in His steadfast love. Then His steadfast love will surround you !

Dave L · Oct 31, 2020

If you believe you can be lost, you cannot have faith God saved you. And we are saved by faith. You need to have faith he saved you no matter what. And begin thanking him and seek a life of Holiness. The fulness of the Holy Spirit comes from repentance from any sin you are aware of.

If you were trusting in your faith to save you, now you know that doesn't work. Start trusting God to save you instead and that will be true faith.

I believe I have committed the unforgivable sin and I don’t know what to do I can’t feel God at all I don’t have any of the fruits of the spirit I don’t get convicted of sin I don’t have any evidence that I have a relationship with Jesus Christ and I don’t know what to do ?

I think that God does not take us as seriously as we take ourselves, but takes his plan, and our sin, much more seriously than we do. On what basis does a person even have to ability to mean the words they use? Who do we think we are?

If my child tells me, "I hate you. I never want to see you again!", I don't take that as the end of our relationship. The child is just being thrown around by their emotion. We really don't know very much.

There is no unforgivable sin because every sin which the elect commit is with Jesus Christ on the cross. We were all unbelievers before Jesus saved us, so even rejecting and hating him is not unforgivable. David committed adultery and murder, his sins were forgiven by the blood of Christ. Paul refers to himself as the chief of sinners and likely participatedin the deaths of early Christians. Even those who commit suicide are forgiven if they died with saving faith.

I would submit there is no unforgivable sin. Your problem seems to be assurance of faith. If you believe that Christ died for you and come before him with a heart broken by your sin then scripture suggests you are saved. Scripture also warns us to be diligent in our faith. Many will make the claim of salvation only to show themselves liars, as illustrated in the sower of the seed parable. Attend the means of grace, read scripture, pray and search your heart.

The best person to talk about it is Jesus Christ. A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out.

"Come unto me, ye who are weary and heavy laden" [and feeling dead], "and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn of me, for my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

Do you get convicted of your sin ? What makes you feel that you still have a relationship with Jesus ?

Daniel of Sweden · Oct 31, 2020

Fear, anxiety and despair are the works of the Devil within you. The more you are reaching for God, the harder he will press the negative seeds in your mind. Resist and he will eventually will flee. There is nothing he can do to you. There is nothing stopping you from salvation, but you acting on your negative thoughts.

God wants you to have a God mind, and to achieve that, you have to do Good and not be selfish, and have Faith. I hope this helps.
