What Does God Think About My Confession?
My roommate is worried about getting defiled with things which are forbidden in old Testament so keeps on washing her things she comes in contact with (Leviticus things) and I a fed up with that what is cure for that I m finding a new place for myself . But I want to help her also
❤
Love this. Been out of work for four years caring for my disabled sister. She passed in March, and now I am alone. I finished college in August and am seeking work. I do have some hindrances, like no car, no access to transportation, minor health issues. I am behind in my (lot)rent and need things. The job market is tough, and I feel guilty for not having an income. I want to cast my care and trust God's provision, but I feel like it is my place to have a job. As I said, the search is tough given the circumstances. Don't know what to do.
Man 💯
You have saved my life.Actually, I asked Jesus why I was stressed and confused after hours of prayer, and he directed me to you.Yes, grace takes precedence over law (Romans 6:14).Thank you very much for your efforts and dedication.
I'm sure your going to water your plant right?
I'm one of those 1 out of 100 people that wishes he knew he had ocd like 15 years ago. That's my gripe about this disorder.😥
❤❤
Wonderful advice. Thank you 😊
Great advice!😊
I have had general anxiety but nothing that really affected me bad more situational anxiety. But I still suffer from not feeling God in my life anymore. Prayers felt completely unheard, completly numb like my heart is hardened. That verse with Job is beautiful but there are more verses that say about harding hearts.. can't shake that. Any help?!
It's a very common fear. I think a hardened heart is one that completely rejects Christ, not one that occasionally experiences spiritual dryness or suffers from mental illness / spiritual attacks.
Thank you so much!!
Such a good word, thanks for sharing.
I suffered with OCD since I was 9 and have CPTSD. Nothing has set me more free from both the guilt of OCD and OCD itself than knowing and understanding the true Gospel of salvation which is that we are saved by faith through grace, and that the moment you believe you are eternally secure because it wouldn't be eternal salvation otherwise and God does not contradict Himself. Now, although I try to be the best I can, I know my salvation is not dependent on what I do or don't do - it is dependent on who God is and what Jesus did for me/us. God bless and please, if you haven't, consider exploring Free Grace churches such as Church of the Eternally Saved here on UA-cam. They Biblically refute common verses that get people to doubt their salvation and that keep people trapped not only here on earth but eternally by preventing them from putting their faith in Jesus and instead putting it in themselves and their works.
Hey so I think I might have religious ocd and I relate to that. So I'm gonna go to a medical professional and get me diagnosed
Can you make a video on how to apply Roman’s 14:23 to our every day life and how we can make decisions we are unsure of but not sin against God
What if you think the blasphemous thought but dont mean it/hate the thought? Is this considered Scrupolosity?
Im still caught up on taking every thought captive. How do I let these thoughts go without taking them captive i feel like I'm not obeying God's word.
Could you do a video on when we get the holy spirit and charismatic abuses, legalism has led me to christ to be justified by faith and not by rules. God bless you sister I hope you and your family are doing well, thank you for all you do. Ty for helping ppl feel safe
I really needed this Jaimie! I’m progressing a ton and haven’t gotten stuck on an OCD obsession in a good while 🎉 BUT of course then the intrusive inappropriate and blasphemous thoughts ramp up. I know the drill but I still am super disturbed at times. I can get stuck in this thinking! Thanks 🙏 Miss your face ma’am!
Hey! So great to hear from you! Keep hanging in there!
@@jaimieeckert Thank you ma’am! Hoping you are so enjoying your little 🥰
Religion is to blame. Religion is madness. OCD is one way it manifests. It should not be surprising that a religious person develops scrupulosity. The religion cultivates it. It is plainly evident. Christianity has caused me so much pain, and damaged my mental health. And, in retrospect, upon inspection: how could it not?! And-- giving up the religion is not sufficient to heal. The madness goes deep. It seems likely that much of the damage is PERMANENT. Because the indoctrination is lodged in the subconscious. Religion is poison. It cause brain damage.
Ohh tell me about it! 🙄😢 I've experienced this. 😔 Can't believe the devil can work through things like scrupulosity and religious OCD to lead us astray
Very helpful. thank u! Question: What about the giy in OT who vowed to God that if they won the battle, he would sacrifice the first thing that came out of his house when he came back from battle? (it happened to be his daughter!)
I was just reading this story today. I am not sure if Jephthah actually killed his daughter or not but the bible states that he did keep his vow. I am not sure how we can break vows knowing that story even if they are foolish.
@@DanaJ469 David vowed to kill Nabal, but didn't. Personally, this issue is very important to me because all my horrific intrusive thoughts are "I promise this" and "I promise that" with hellish consequences. It's tiring. I don't want to make vows.
Wish I had listened to these words back then!
You know erp works because no one wants to do it.
Hallelujah amen❤
It's because I'm a highly sensitive ocd struggler.
I'm also in a bad scrupulous rut.
Amen He can ❤
Pole dancing 😂😂 That was awesome. Great Scrupe subject to address! So needed!
This is perfect timing. About 3 months ago I felt the strong desire to scale back playing video games. I felt like they were a waste of my time. I now have more time for prayer. Of course I miss playing games now and then, but I want God more.
Thank you alot Jaimie. I'm going through terrible medicine withdrawal and it causes me to want to feel numb. These compulsions are driving me crazy.
Prayers for you my friend ☺️
@@goofygoober6213 much appreciated
Thankyou!
Great video Jaimie.
man! were where you when i was suffering , thank you soo much .
Thank you for making this video. I have been also really dealing with the challenge of truly resting in God's grace. I offended my friend cause of my anxiety, and it's caused a rift in our friendship. I want to be trusted by people again. ❤
God bless u Jaimie and thank HOLYSPIRIT APPA for sending us exactly what we need ❤
Hello, I want to suggest making a video about reading the Bible obsessions. Because i don't know how to make a devotional or reading. I just make only one reading session and i dont understand the secret spiritual meaning of the Old and new testament books, chapters and verses.
Yes, im exhausted and burnout from feeling like i have to watch all these religious videos and reading christian reddit. I had to stop all of that to make all the intrusive thoughts and voices stop. My mind needs quiet. 🥴
I needed this today. Thanks
Ngl I almost felt like losing my faith because using secular tools to help ocd worked better for me than prayer and reading the Bible and I felt like the source of my misery was the Bible was God and everything related to religion. Please pray for me. I struggle with wanting to pray, I feel mad at God because of the ocd and other stuff; Jesus has always been there for me but I am burnt out from it all and almost don't care but care enough to not throw it all away eiher
I recommend listening to Mark DeJesus. We are justified by faith. We have to regularly remind ourselves. Left to our out imagination we may falsely feel like we have fallen from grace. Go easy on yourself
I have had burnout many times throughout my seasons with OCD. It's a funny thing because you almost feel calm for the first time in a while and you almost want to welcome it. It's also funny you would mention that there is a point where you freak out, because that is exactly what happens to me. It's almost like you push it so that you can fell something again and your brain gets sick in the wake of your efforts. I'm amazed at how much rest you need with OCD, it's something that I was always told was a bad thing to take, and now I find that without it am simply can't function anymore. Thank you for this video!
I am tired of having unwanted blasphemous thought these past couple weeks and I am in spiritual bondage because of this. How do I free myself from no longer thinking the thought?😟💔😔🙏 I don't mean the thought so why do I feel the urge to think it when I don't believe in it?
Watch Mark DeJesus
@@enochjosiah9062 Ty, brother🙏🕊 Can you relate, if I may ask?
@@christiangirlforhumanity3853blasphemous thoughts are very common with religious OCD. I know that doesn't make it any easier. Don't try to figure out the thoughts or pray them away, because you can't. Just try to let them pass on by like a wave in the ocean. Jaimie has a lot of material on this. Also as the other person said Mark DeJesus has videos as well. You are not alone in this. There's so many others who battle this.
Somehow, nobody's thought to phrase for me (whether myself or others) that the brain is an organ. Amid a lot of burnout, I needed to hear that. Thank you!
do not lean in to your own understanding is helpful for me
I saw a guy in TikTok who was ok after deliverance. Can I send you his name on private msg somehow?
I’m pretty sure I have it although I haven’t been diagnosed by a doctor but my experience was very traumatic. I still have attacks every now and then. I am on Lexapro which helps me to a degree. Wouldn’t wish it on anybody though.
Amen Jaimie❤
Hello all! Just a (straight forward and easy to understand) Scripture recommendation: the book of Jonah. If you already know the story just skip to and read the last chapter and focus on the last verse. It shows you God's perspective on sinners. Keep in mind that that the people are not strugglers (strugglers are mentioned in this video) but were regarding sin in their heart. The book is short! It's worth to read it. I hope God blesses you with a new and fresh perspective!
Thank you for sharing these insights. Also, can't help but notice how nice your hair falls today! Do you do cgm?
