I want to listen to this one again soon. This gave me some ideas about how to start evangelistic conversations. I believe God has been trying to move in my life, but I don't think I have been taking action. He gives me ideas, and i get excited for like a day, then i say "no... I cant do it. That surely wasn't from God. I Don't know what I'm doing. Im such a fool. It's too risky." I want to hear from Gof Himself about what He would have me do, not from other people. And I don't want to imitate others and try to live the life Gid called THEM to live, because I am different from them. God has given me a specific identity and calling. I want to learn to walk that out. God help me.
What I think could help you is the same thing that helps me. Find a scripture that applies to your situation or problem at hand. In your case you feel binded by a negative force. So type these words into the blue letter bible app or google or any type of search bar even RUclips. Example type scriptures that release me from the binding of the devil
Here's one that I found: What Scripture is the pulling down of strongholds? 2 Corinthians 10 1 The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
And another thing I realized is that you are confessing that you're possessed but remember your words have power. So you can speak things into existence. Try to stop confessing these negative things because you are wrongly convincing yourself. Instead, speak words of Life.
What about when someone is being tortured or abused badly ? Im not refuting im trying to believe but where would jesus be in that room while thats happening to someone and how can i see any hope in my own situation and believe jesus is here with me when i know of rape and torture and pain greed etc etc ?
That’s difficult. I was brought up in terror. And I spent years hating God and blaming Him. It’s taken over half my life for me to begin to realise God was there and He did care. But the adults who should have cared for me didn’t. They had issues of pain and darkness that needed His healing. I can only say He IS there. And as I worked through the pain as an adult, I also realised He gives us strength AS we need it. Not before. God only lives in the present. So although He may well tell us things that will happen, we get strength for those things when they happen. This is a world where people do evil things. And until that evil passes evil will continue. But it’s learning to have a living relationship of trust with God. I can only speak from my experience. God HAS been with me when I faced the devil. And I saw the devil fall. The devil was a man who I was terrified of. But I saw it. I heard it. And I had of my own choice, begged God to help., whereas before I was doing it alone. And doing it alone was the problem! I had to learn to take responsibility for my own sin, rather than blaming those who hurt me. Whilst also letting out anger, hate and pain about those who hurt me and give it to God, including my fury at God Himself…. Give up the blaming and shaming that this culture is obsessed with! That’s part of the reason. Finger pointing. God cannot come in if we are busy pointing at others and not telling the truth about ourselves. The thing is, even when we don’t feel it, God is still there. I don’t have pat answers for everything and everyone. And I am deeply sorry for all those who suffer and have not felt God. Me too! Until I was old enough to press into finding Him and learning He could be trusted. It’s a journey. I still have very bad days. And I can only speak for me. And say I know God is there. And God is also angry when people get hurt. But He gives us free will. And until we start to use that free will with love and not selfish desire, sin and evil continue. Loving your enemies is not just for them! It’s for you! But we cannot comprehend that. Loving our enemies releases them to possible change. Love promotes change. Blame, name, shame do not. They make it worse. Seeking God instead of ourselves is really important. Vital. Me doing it my way directly lead me to my confrontation with the devil! My inviting God in meant I saw my enemy fall!
