I need prayers so that God gives me wisdom, assurance that I can still choose to believe, assurance that saving faith is still possible, that i am not condemned for this false feeling of being "fine", of indifference almost like I am not too worried about my eternal security. I feel I am being deceived by the vain doctrine of the sin of despair from man rather than from God. I feel like im just doing this to not accept my indifference, to show I still do in fact care and have faith. But doing this to not accept indifference doesnt seem as effective so by the power of prayer I ask that you pray for me. Messages please. I just dont want to stay like this. I want to be given the wisdom, I dont want to be a fool. Please. I instead want to be able to keep remembering and trusting the Lord's understanding over mine even though I can barely feel his existence. Even though I have the smallest faith.
Misplaced faith that causes me to doubt. How am I able to replace it to the correct? How do I regain or restore that saving faith? Or to strengthen my current one, to practice habits of trusting God. This couldve been a trial but why give up? Am I believing the doctrine of man or trusting and leaning on God? Please no condemnation. Just prayer for stronger faith AND wisdom.

If God said it then He WILL do it. Did He not say "If any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to him.". So ask then KNOW He gave it because He said He would. We walk by faith not site not sound not feelings. Feelings are up and down all over the place. So He said the Joy of the lord IS your strength, we have the mind of Christ, We have the peace of God, Christ gave us His peace not as the world gives.. so KNOW He did all this and more. Just keep your eyes on Him and rejoice. Praying..

A fact a truth you don't have any problems all you need is faith in GOD

God is trying to speak to you, literally. I went through the same. I was even being treated for mental illness until I couldn’t stand to read another word of doctrine. It was then, when I’d been rejected by people & churches, that I told Him I was confused and would not bring shame to His Name by speaking of Him until He showed me the truth. After surviving a 4-day long cardiac event, on the heels of years of anguish, He showed me.

“The poor in spirit will see God.” He won’t dig through your doctrines to get to you….. all that is confusing because He’s trying to show you what to forsake to meet Him.
It’s a period of testing that He knows you’ll survive- you have to know that, too.

Ask Him questions, aloud. Remind Him of His promise to give insight to those who ask, aloud. Thank Him for choosing you… you don’t have to know what for- it’ll be significant, I’m sure.

I’m sure you’re miserable at times from all this, but I have to admit, I feel really excited for you!

Relentlessly pursue His Spirit and His blessing- understand that He is a King, and approaching Him is a right He’s given to us, if we “fear Him enough to approach Him.”

Praying.

16 I pray that he may grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with power in your inner being through his Spirit, 17 and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. I pray that you, being rooted and firmly established in love, 18 may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the length and width, height and depth of God’s love, 19 and to know Christ’s love that surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. 20 Now to him who is able to do above and beyond all that we ask or think according to the power that works in us—21 to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

CSB (Eph 3:16–4:1)

24 For he has not despised or abhorred the torment of the oppressed. He did not hide his face from him but listened when he cried to him for help.

CSB (Ps 22:24)
