Hey I’m Alec Therien. OCD almost ruined my life but God saved me. There are so many verses throughout the Bible that show Gods understanding of OCD and anxiety but I can’t show them all!
“Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Finally brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable— if anything is excellent or praiseworthy— think about such things. Whatever you have learned or received or heard from me, or seen from me— put it into practice. And the God of peace be with you.(Philippians 4 4-9)
Paul starts off by stating that the Lord is with us, telling believers to relax. Paul then writes that we shouldn’t be anxious in anything but to pray to God. This is explaining that the Lord is with us wherever we go and he will provide for our needs. Next, Paul comforts us with the fact that Jesus will guard our heart and mind and continues by showing what we can think about when we have worrisome thoughts. Finally, he blesses us with the peace of God.
I have attached 3 pages of verses from the Bible on beating fear/anxiety and 1 page of verses on patience. Patience is important because OCD is a long battle, but the battle ends with God saving you! All you have to do is believe in him!
