I follow your prophecy updates every week! And I know about the way of salvation in the ABCâs, But lately, Iâve been getting thoughts in my head talking about and I quote â Many will come in that day, and say, Lord Lord, did we not do this and do that in your name, and he will say depart for me. I never knew you, workers of iniquity?
So lately, Iâve been getting the thought that Godâs gonna say that to me one day! I have accepted Jesus as my Lord and savior, but this keeps intruding in my mind! I hear this in my mind over and over but maybe Iâm not saved and maybe one day God will tell me to depart from him because he never knew me! But have invites Christ into my heart a few times. I keep asking HIM Am I saved or not? I would hate to die one day and go to heaven and have him reject me and I get this thought in my head all the time is Satan trying to destroy my life for Christ I donât know. I have my devotional time with him, reading the word, praying! But I still feel maybe Iâm not saved? And I donât have any spiritual shepherd around me that would even help me figure this out Could you please talk about this when you ask people to invite Jesus to their hearts, About this part in the Bible, where it says will come in that day say Lord Lord, and he will say depart for me!
It is truly bothering me! All I want is God in my life I know whatâs gonna happen, and I donât wanna go to hell I want to stay in his presence forever and ever!
And I thought that I was saved and now I donât know so many doubts, but I think thatâs of the enemy coming and putting the doubts there! Right?
Could you please address this many will come and say Lord Lord, and he will say depart for me I never knew you! It would give me peace of mind I do pray and ask him am I saved or not but I donât get an answer, I know itâs not a touchy-feely thing you donât feel if youâre saved! Thanks, Mary Lynn Khvostov Canada
Personnaly I donât know.
Watch again the video of Pastor JD and do it really with your heart.
(the people rejected by Jesus were hypocrites and with him for other reasons)
If you are sincere in your heart, it should be OK.
Are you not again in the world ?
Normally something has changed in you (born again) and you should be in the long process of sanctification trying to make less sinsâŠ
If someone can help Masha on this @anon28331375@Susan
Masha, satan comes to steal, kill and destroy. Just keep seeking Jesus, giving and surrendering all to Him. He promises that if anyone does this, HE WILL BE FOUND! He cannot break a promise. Keep in His Word, itâs His love letter to us. He loves you so much! Donât let satan steal one more moment of your peace.
Blessings
God Bless You @Masha! I have a feeling that what you said may be correct, in that itâs most likely Satan or Demons trying to change your mind about Christ. They canât stand it when people come to faith in Christ.
If I were you, Iâd cast out Satan in Jesusâ Name every time you start feeling or hearing anything thatâs trying to change what you know in your heart to be true⊠that Jesus Christ IS Lord over your life and you DO give yourself to HIM in Faith.
A little bit of doubt is normal. It does affect many at one time or another, especially new believers, so just focus on reading your bible regularly and continue to pray for a deeper and more secure faith in HIM.
God Bless and Be With You Dear Sister! Iâm praying for you!
Dear Masha, I am so late to the scene on this and hopefully you have figured this out about your assurance of salvation.
Here are some questions I would ask you-
How did you come to believe in Jesus?
What was your life like before you came to faith?
What was your life like after you came to faith?
Lastly, how do you think you will be going to heaven?
These questions can get at the core of this. Answer them very seriously.
Reading 1 John is also our way of testing our faith.
It could very well be Satan is doing this to you and you are saved . Or it could be you havenât been born again yet and donât have assurance . Either way it is so good for you to examine this.
Answer the questions above and we can help you . At the end of the day it is true that we wonât know your heart but the questions above can help.
Professing Christ doesnât save us, we must be born again so I pray the questions above help you .
I need prayer for Steven , he asked Jesus into his life on sat and my daughter lead him to the abc salvation. They need prayer spiritual warfare. Please pray for Steven Emily and Maddie - thatâs my daughter family . Steven is her husband
Will pray for them Becky and stand in the gap for you also. It is wonderful to hear of his saving faith. What a day of rejoicing it is in heaven. Yes, the spiritual battle in on now as the enemy wants to tell him he does not belong to Christ so until he has his full battle armor on, we will keep the family on our battle list.
