Fears

[Mark_M]

Hello all,

My life right now is sort of in a dark place, after committing my self to the lord back in 2019 I thought I was done with this fear until. These past few months I've been disconnected from God. I've stopped praying and much more until these past few days which have opened my eyes again.

One of my fears is of the Rapture, I'm not as excited about it as some people are, And sometimes I don't want it to come for a while. I feel like this is coming from because I'm still young and still want to live my life. And when I think about it and sometimes reading predictions that will happen this year I get depressed sometimes and don't want to do anything.

My father has also been disconnected from the lord for the past few years. Please pray for me and my father and my family that no fears will haunt me and that my father will come back to the lord and that my family will always believe in Christ.

I pray you don’t angry with the Lord. Now you have a fighting chance with your fears. Use your tools like taking thoughts captive as in 2cor10:3-5. If you don’t know how pray for a word of wisdom from God. If you think you do- try it. It works very well- a gift. Ask your pastor.

I understand your fears. Anxiety is one thing I've really had to pray about in my life.

Father, I pray for Mark and his family. Thank You that You have not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind. Whatever fears come up, please comfort them with Your love and let Your Word drive fear away from their lives. Let them have confident assurance as they put their trust in You in all areas. In Jesus Name, Amen.

I pray that you and your father will grow more connected to God. I also pray that God will grant you a spirit of acceptance that the rapture will happen in His time and you don't need to be concerned about it.

My prayers will be for you and your father. One thing that really helps me is going to God with my concerns. I recently have started a great activity that helps me get into God's word more and going deeper in my relationship with Him. It is called SOAP journal that I do daily. S - stands for Scripture (I work on a verse from my bible promises), then I write out O an Observation about the verse, A - I write how I can Apply the verse to my life, and P - I write a Prayer directly to God to help me live out the verse.

Here is a verse I think would be a great start for you. Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. I am glad you reached out here and hope you got some encouragement and support. Hugs and God Bless

"I'm still young and still want to live my life" I feel that man. I used to be huge degen and I cannot lie. I miss that life it was so easy spending months in the basement doing drugs and drinking but we have to move on. My fear of being left out of the boat of righteousness scares me off from that lifestyle now. I feel your struggle man but we cannot give in. If you want inspiration on how to get rid of the desire to be a part of this world I recommend learning about the desert fathers.

2 Timothy 2:22
Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.

My anxiety has defiantly started going down, still have a bit of fear but I'll get to that point where I have no fear at some point. And thank you for the prayers.

The more you focus on God and in His word, the less fear we will experience. Fear verse Faith is really true. It is truly the matter of what we focus on and if we believe God says what He is going to do. He is the Almighty Father and will take care of us. I understand the struggles with anxiety. If it gets too much and interferes with your life you might want to look at seeing a doctor and counseling. Hugs and know we are always here if you need to chat.
