How to get God to leave you alone.

[Ultima4257]

Hello,

I know this may sound like a very disturbing topic, but quite frankly I want God to leave me alone and he refuses to do so. Is their any possible way I can get God to leave me alone. I don't want responses that deal with I shouldn't wish this, I am tired of him asking me to change after I have repeatedly told him I will not change right now. Is this possible? Thank you for your help.

I will Pray that you see the Glory of God. And the unconditional love that he gives us. He is convicting you, and you don't wanna change because the ways of the flesh are winning over you. Salavation is a gift my friend, take it. Prepare now for eternal life, and not what is here that you can't take with you. Its hard, i know, but just give it a try. I will pray for you.

God does leave us alone, for the most part. Its your own conscience that you are referring to.

 

[Sketcher]

God is not a being that you can control. If he wants to pursue you, he will pursue you. Life2Christ has a good point though, you could be mistaking God for your own conscience. I have no way of telling if this is the case or not, since I don't know what's going on in your head.

You are in the wrong place to ask for this kind of advice....

I always heard the phrase...God is a gentleman and He knocks on the door of your heart WAITING FOR YOU to let Him in. God also does not force anyone to do what He wants them to do...what is "this person" asking you to do...this most likely is not the spirit of God.

Yahweh is always wanting us to change. He wants us to surrender all areas of our lives to Him and sometimes it seems He wants more growth from us than at other times. Yes, sometimes we think - I just can't do that or I just can't do that now. When we refuse to do what He wants, often it doesn't mean that He's dropped the issue forever. There's a numerous list of things He could be prompting us to do. Sometimes there are low-risk promptings while at other times it's larger issues such as forgiving someone, changing our thoughts or behavior or both, spending more time with Him, ETC. I've found that His timing is perfect and He'll give you the strength to do what He wants you to do. I urge you to reconsider and not resist. I can tell you that I ended up having to deal with some awful, unexpected consequences - heart breaking situations for years and still continues - that could have been avoided if I had just obeyed Him when He prompted me.

Afterall, Yahweh has His reasons, loves you, and He does know what is best for you.

Do you think it's satan's masterplan? Satan: "I'm going to make him believe God loves him and wants a relationship.. MUHUWAWAWA!"

doesn't sound very satany.

I have heard of people who wanted God to leave them alone. I think most eventually realize that what God wants is best. Everyone who gives in is glad that they did. I never heard of anyone who regretted giving in to God.

Jonah tried to get God to leave him alone, and eventually had to get swallowed by a whale before giving in. Some people believe in "irresistable grace", in which people who are drawn by God have no choice but to give in. I think that the more of a fight you put up, the greater lengths God may go to to bring you back to Him. God chastens those He loves. I think that resisting Him will just make you miserable.

As far as I know, it is not possible. Just as you would not leave someone you love alone if they were trying to drink poison. He'd only want you to change in a way that was good for you. I know it feels horrible at times, but it will be easier if you do not kick against the goads. This was posted on another thread. Its great and helps explain:

Hell is the place where God gives those determined people the desires of their
hearts, that God would leave them absolutely alone.

Hell is the only place where God isn't....

Be careful what you ask for.

 

[cedward1]

It's ironic. I am seeking that which you are now trying to avoid. I would love to have convictions that I know are of God, and to know that His spirit is drawing me to certain peace and hapiness.

Ultimo,

One thing I've found in my journey as a Christian - especially in the last few months! - is that if you are trying to fight against God, you're never gonna win that. God, although a gentleman, is also (in a very gentle and loving way) a kinda persistent guy

I know you don't want to change right now, changing is so very, very hard especially when you don't feel ready. That's another recent lesson learned! But God wants to do this to help you grow in your faith, to teach you and to guide you. He's not just doing this for kicks or because he wants to wind you up. There's always good reason for it. And God never asks you to do something without giving you the means to do it - be it an inner strength you didn't know you had previously, or courage, or peace, or whatever.

Relax, my friend... just go with it. You never know - you might just like the change you see

I'll be praying for you,

GD

Well there is that too. Some people claim that if you resist the Holy Spirit's convictions too long it is equivalent to the unpardonable sin. Although I'm not sure that's a good interpretation. Either way, rejecting the call to repentance wouldn't be forgiven simply because it wouldn't be repented. As I heard someone say before, you are "playing Russian roulette with your afterlife" by refusing to repent.

What are you doing that God is so persistent in stopping you?

I will side with God and my prayers are that God stop
you from your sin or wrong choices in whatever way is necessary...

It is a few things actually. I have three addictions I am dealing with which are food, unhealthy sexual fantasies and video games. I have tried repeatedly in the past to stop these, but it DOESN'T work. When I converse with God about it (if that is who it really is) he tells me I am doing it in my own strength, but when I ask him to help me, he says he isn't able to because I am to PRIDEFUL. When I ask him how I humble myself so I can recieve his help, he tells me that I am the one who humbles you. So basically he keeps telling me to stop these things, but he isn't humbing me to the point where I am able to recieve his help. I am sorry if I am not making any sense, I sometimes wonder if this is God since it is so confusing. I am quite frankly sick of fighting with him over these things and just want to continue in them until I am able to eventually pull away from them. Thank you for the reply and I hope this gives you a better understanding.

Remember that one verse where the man wanted healing for his posessed son? "I believe, please help my unbelief". I think it's sort of like that. Even though you're struggling, He's big enough that if you give it to Him, He'll work His way in you. Don't give up!

Remember, "He who began a good work in you will bring it to completion!"

Oh and it's never usually a good idea to fight with God. Just submit yourself to Him, resist the devil and he (the devil, NOT God) will flee from you.

Hello,

so.
I have repeatedly told him I will not change right now.
Is this possible? Thank you for your help.

In light (or darkness) of what you just wrote:
You are asking US to help you? Why? -
You already told God/Jesus you WONT change;
so what do you expect us to tell you differently... LISTEN to your Conscience already!

The point of this thread was to understand how to get God to leave me alone. I wasn't asking for anyones help on changing, because as I have already stated I will not change at this time. Thank you for the reply though.
