I have a very serious problem that I need healing from. A few months back I had something pop in my chest/lung while smoking marijuana with a bad chest cold. At first it just caused pain on that side of my chest when sitting down or laying on that side. I went to the doctor but they didn't know what it was or what to do. I stopped doing all drugs and even stopped smoking cigarettes. Then I had other symptoms start such as my hair was moving on its own, felt like something was biting me, muscle spasms, itching, and my legs would feel like they were popping after I would take walks for about 10 minutes. I don't know what to do. I have been praying a lot and asking god for help and to take this away. I have repented on a few of the bad things I was doing such as smoking/getting high all the time and homosexual acts(which I was mainly just fantasizing about it, only did the actual thing 3 times). The only thing that I still do wrong is watch porn/touch, play violent video games, and sometimes get angry with my family(hard to control myself with these symptoms). And I also don't work which I guess is a sin too. Does anyone know what I have to do to receive healing from god. I don't know if I can keep going on like this.

There you go giving playing violent video games a bad name -.-
I don't know about the weird leg popping, and pains, sounds like nerve pain, there are many causes for this, keep praying, and keep having faith, get a better diet, look up anti inflammatory diets/medicines, and if you can, get on low income health insurance and see a doctor.
I will pray for you.

Actually I just asked a question on another forum if they thought it was truly a sin to play video games that have killing in them. I personally don't. The bible may say thou shall not murder but I don't see how playing a video game like aoe3 that is all about strategy has anything to do with murdering another human being in real life as to what the bible is referring to.

I have several question to ask you concerning violent video games. What emotions do you experience when you play them? Are those emotions in step with the fruit of the Spirit, But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, in Galatians 5:21-23?
Do you have a sense of the love of God or the presence of God while playing these games? Can you give thanks to God through our Lord Jesus Christ for these violent video games?

You sound as if you have a completely undisciplined life style which is contrary to good Christian teaching. Healing will come in the process of time, but you have to stop living like an animal.
Do you go to a church? Do you do anything that can be regarded as good Christian practise?

God is one hundred percent righteous. None of us are.
Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all your worries will be taken care of. We are all sinners. There is none good, except one, God.
The wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Ask, and you shall receive. He is merciful unto all that call upon him.

Hey buddy, you must know that you are completely forgiven by The Lord. There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. When you realize that you are forgiven, you will have the ability to reign over sin in your life. Its when you catch a revelation of how amazing Christ is that you can receive the empowerment of the holy ghost! You do not need to do anything to receive the healing. He paid for it with his broken body. He became our sin so we could become his righteousness. Read the book of romans! :)

Hi,

God is pleased every time we take a set in the right direction. It is good that you have taken steps towards repentance, especially the homosexuality, and drugs. I don't play violent video games now, but I used to even as a Christian, and God still used me in healing others who were sick, and speaking to me to save people. I would not be worried about that. As for ponography I did not use that, but I have to admit I did mastibate, and God again still used me. Men are far from perfect creatures. I found once I got a wife a lot of my worldly passion went away. I no longer mastibated, I no longer played violent video games, that was just a choice of mine. The fact is it is only as we spend time with God that our passions will go away. God accepts you as you are, sure there might need to be some slight ajustments over time, but just spend time getting to know God. He will be a good friend to you, and I believe he will heal you also. Praying for your healing. - from another imperfect human
