I Need Brotherly Help

[unity777]

Well I Have Been A Christian For Over 10 Years But I Have Been
In A Downward Spiral For About 4 Years To The Point I Dont Feel
A Part Of God At All I Have Fallen Back To Alot Of My Old Ways
And Also Finding Myself Falling Into Sin I Have Never Thought I
Would Fall Into ,i Need Help I Cant Pray I Go To A Church Service
And I Feel Numb I Feel My Family Is Falling Apart And I Am So Numb
I Cant Even Move To Stop It "need Help!" If Any Of U Have Any Advice
Or If U Can Help Me With Prayer, Me And My Family Would Eternally Appreciate It
Thanks
David Oliva

 

[Elijah2]

Hi David,

You need to cleanse your hands and purify your heart!

You need to be set free in our Lord Jesus Christ.

You many know God, but do you know our Lord Jesus Christ?

Get a copy of "Victory Over Darkness" and "The Bondage Breakers" written by Neil Anderson.

You are being tossed to and fro by false teaching and doctrine, and the enemy is having a ball with you.

Blessings.

You must understand you are a babe in CHRIST. You are no different than a child that first learns to walk. They start on their belly, next they learn to turn over, next they start crawling, next they try to stand but fall many times, and next they start walking falling many times till they have it under control. BUT they never doubted that they would walk and kept trying.






It is the same walking up the path to the KINGDOM of ALMIGHTY GOD. You will first feed on the MILK that is in GOD'S WORD. If you keep on the path, after the MILK comes the REAL FOOD that comes from GOD HIMSELF.


You shall find after you are ANOINTED by GOD with HIS HOLY SPIRIT and you see just how real GOD is you will have no problem staying on the path to the KINGDOM of ALMIGHTY GOD.








If you are going to be part of the KINGDOM of ALMIGHTY GOD you MUST GIVE IT ALL TO GOD.









GOD demands that you give HIM your WHOLE heart, mind, strength, and soul. That means you go in prayer and tell GOD that you will do this and from that moment on seek GOD in all your decisions. After this is complete GOD will know. For HE searches the heart. HE will then send HIS HOLY SPIRIT ( ANOINTED-BORN AGAIN- SAVED ). For it is then that you shall receive the MISSION GOD has for just you and supply all your needs, even what you have not the ability to have.









Pick up GOD'S ROAD MAP to the KINGDOM of ALMIGHTY GOD ( BIBLE ) and start reading the NEW TESTIMENT till the next time you read it you will already know what IT'S going to say. For then it's locked in your heart to draw from for the rest of your life. You will NEVER be sorry you did.





Do yourself a BIG FAVOR and Start right now!!!


LOVE

Being a babe in CHRIST is no disgrace and there are many folks that never get beyond this point. Because they don't read and UNDERSTAND GOD'S WORD they have no idea what maturing in your in faith means or brings:







1 JohnChapter 2







20 But you have the anointing that comes from the holy one, and you all have knowledge.

21 I write to you not because you do not know the truth but because you do, and because every lie is alien to the truth.


26 I write you these things about those who would deceive you.




27 As for you, the anointing that you received from him remains in you, so that you do not need anyone to teach you. But his anointing teaches you about everything and is true and not false; just as it taught you, remain in him.


If you had been ANOINTED you wouldn't be here asking for advice. You would be here to give advice to those in need. There are a lot of worldly church's that fail to let a soul know what they can expect. The reason being greed. They place a special spot on their flock so they know each other and stick together. They don't want to lose a member.


When you are ANOINTED by GOD with HIS HOLY SPIRIT GOD becomes your:

1. TEACHER
2. GUIDE
3. COMUNICATOR
4. COMFORTER


No one stands between you and GOD. You then have a direct line to GOD.



Then your CHURCH becomes the KINGDOM of ALMIGHTY GOD.



Once you are ANOINTED ( BORN AGAIN-SAVED ) and you have contact with GOD through HIS HOLY SPIRIT you will not want to ever return to your old self.


Brother I tell you this out of love. Check that verse out in your BIBLE.


LOVE

[Shadolus]

Isn't anyone who accepts Christ anointed by the Holy Spirit or do they just recieve the Holy Spirit? Can you clarify Steven?

Also, unity, just so you know, I have compassion for your situation, and my prayers are with you. Please, don't take offense to Elijah, I think he was just saying that we need to grow in our relationship with Jesus and not to get caught up in doctrine. Pat Robertson from the 700 club has commented on Christians who have back slid and gives good advice. He says to write down all your sins on a piece of paper, go to the park or somewhere quiet, confess to Jesus all your sins and the willingness to lean on Him for strength and pray for peace of mind and the ability to move forward. After that, burn the piece of paper and start walking in a refreshened state of mind with our Lord Jesus Christ.

My prayers are with you, God bless

Jake

 

[BreadAlone]

I used to be like you unity. Very recently, as a matter of fact. I cried to the Lord, asking Him to help me, wondering why I was back sliding into my sin. Wondering why the Lord wasn't helping me.

I realized that *I* was the one with the problem, not God. God had provided me all the help in the world, and I was not using it. He provided me the most important thing in the world, His holy Word, and I just let it sit there on my dresser. He has given us the awesome priviledge of meeting Him any time, anywhere in prayer, and I only did that when convenient for *me*. I didn't want to go to church except when convenient for *me*. I didnt' want to participate in Bible Studies and Small Groups, except when *I* got something out of it.

You need to prayerfully study God's holy Word and apply it's teachings to your life on a DAILY basis, if not multiple times. You need to pray CONTINUALLY, going to God with any and everything. Even about the weather. Prayer is for you, not for God. God knows what you want and need a long time before you ask for it.

Prayers for you, my brother.

 

[gabrielListens]

This is from Psalm 102. The bible says this is a prayer for those souls who are conflicted or overwhelmed. You might want to read it/recite it/pray it everyday to nourish your spirit. That is what you need right now; nourishment for your spirit and some quick help from the Lord our God. God bless you.

Lord, hear my prayer!
Listen to my plea!
Don’t turn away from me
in my time of distress.
Bend down to listen,
and answer me quickly when I call to you.
For my days disappear like smoke,
and my bones burn like red-hot coals.
My heart is sick, withered like grass,
and I have lost my appetite.
Because of my groaning,
I am reduced to skin and bones.
I am like an owl in the desert,
like a little owl in a far-off wilderness.
I lie awake,
lonely as a solitary bird on the roof.
My enemies taunt me day after day.
They mock and curse me.
I eat ashes for food.
My tears run down into my drink
because of your anger and wrath.
For you have picked me up and thrown me out.
My life passes as swiftly as the evening shadows.
I am withering away like grass.
But you, O Lord, will sit on your throne forever.
Your fame will endure to every generation.

He broke my strength in midlife,
cutting short my days.
But I cried to him, “O my God, who lives forever,
don’t take my life while I am so young!
Long ago you laid the foundation of the earth
and made the heavens with your hands.
They will perish, but you remain forever;
they will wear out like old clothing.
You will change them like a garment
and discard them.
But you are always the same;
you will live forever.
The children of your people
will live in security.
Their children’s children
will thrive in your presence.”

Psalm 102: 1-12, 23-28 (NLT)

Maybe that was your problem but GOD'S WORD warned you:



1 Timothy 6:




7For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it.







8But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that.







9People who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction.







10For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.



These verses brought profound changes in my life. Hopefully it will help yours.


GOD does not always give me a message that is well received but what comes from GOD I will write.


With LOVE brother

[hikingchick77]

Unity - you need a hug, and some prayers...I am sending them your way virtually!
Do you have any real life people, like a pastor or a spirtual counselor, that can help you get back on track? If not, confess your sin daily to the Lord, keep in prayer, and accept you are a sinner who needs God! Jesus loves you, and wants you to be close to him...remember that!

 

[unity777]

wonderwaleye you dont seem to understand i am not searching for riches nor do i lament having lost all i have, if that is the cost of being close to GOD then very small price i have paid my struggle is not in the financial you see no matter how bad things have seemed GOD has with out a doubt provided ,me and my family have never been without there has always been a door, always away, see my struggle is not in the material but in the spiritual my struggle is to return back to me and my family's closeness to GOD please dont be so quick to judge a situation i see your very zealous for GOD and thats not bad but i used to be the same way and its blinded me in alot of ways i think god has brought us together to help each other out

Stop fighting GOD:


2 PeterChapter 1



20 Know this first of all, that there is no prophecy of scripture that is a matter of personal interpretation,




21 for no prophecy ever came through human will; but rather human beings moved by the holy Spirit spoke under the influence of God.

Revelation
Chapter 3:
​

15 "I know your works; I know that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either cold or hot.


16 So, because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth.


These are not my WORDS.





LOVE

[unity777]

God Bless You Wonderwaleye Hopefully You Will Comes To Grip With Reality One Day I Just Dont Know Where You Are Coming From East,west,north Or South Now Your Speaking Of Prophesy That By Human Will Can Not Be Accomplished Or Interpreted Are You Saying Your Prophesy Is That I Am Searching For Riches How Difficult Is It For You To Do What our Teacher Did Best " Compassion " Or Is My Situation That Difficult For You To Understand Come On Over Zealous Christians Are The Ones Who Prevent Unity And Compassion The Bible Was Left For Us As A Guide Its A Book Of Understanding Inspired By The Holy Spirit Its Our Nightlight In The Darkness But You Cant Stick The Open Flame To Someones Eyes Just Because There Closed Thats Why They Run Away The Bible Is Our Comforter,
Sword But Its Also Our Shield
Love Dave

 

[unity777]

Oh And Im Not Fighting God Im Fighting Myself Torn By My Desire To Be Back In His Arms And All My Guilt That Ways Me Down And Doesnt Let Me Move oh and any true christian will shiver at the thought of another being spit out by Christ yet is or job to heat each other up and encourage ourselves in the LORD

 

[wonderwaleye]

Oh And Im Not Fighting God Im Fighting Myself Torn By My Desire To Be Back In His Arms And All My Guilt That Ways Me Down And Doesnt Let Me Move

Lay it all at the feet of JESUS and ask for forgiveness so that it be washed away with HIS BLOOD and you be made white as snow.



There are some folks that have forgotten:






Matthew
Chapter 10


34 "Do not think that I have come to bring peace upon the earth. I have come to bring not peace but the sword.


38 and whoever does not take up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me







LOVE

[Shadolus]

Hey unity I can't quite relate to your back sliding but I do know that once you were saved you are always saved. So with that in mind just tell yourself "man I sure as heck don't deserve this(as do all of us), even though I have made some mistakes God still loves and accepts me". Really its wonderful, and the fact that we're still saved should give some motivation to rest upon God, and through prayers, find the strength in Him to move on! I too give you a Christian brotherly hug(I'm not ashamed lol). You take care and I pray that God brings peace, clarity, direction, and renewed strength in your life. God bless you friend!!!

 

[unity777]
