Needing help.

[Amberstimpfle]

I accepted Christ about 7 months ago into my life. Everything was going awesome! I was on fire for Christ and everything but the past couple of months have been bad..
Whenever I just go to pray or think of Jesus or anything for that matter my body just will not let me. Like my body will just squeeze up on the inside and just convince me that he isn't real or I'm wasting my time. It's the same feeling as when you're about to jump in a pool for the first time and your body stops you. The thing is I've never been more in my bible and actually trying to be obedient to God as now. I feel the Holy Spirit growing through me but I don't understand why this is happening to me. I'm striving to have faith and trust in Jesus again. I want it more than anything in the world but my flesh will not let me. And I'm just listening to the evil one when he tells me I'm not saved and I'm going to hell because of this. I need help.

Greetings @Amberstimpfle

Welcome to Talk Jesus.
It's wonderful to hear about your recent salvation....Praise the Lord!

One thing that dirty liar the devil will do is try to make you doubt and disbelieve
Take comfort....It's not about how you feel....it's about what Jesus did for you at Calvary
When you feel like you do....try to sing songs of praises to the Lord simply thanking Him for loving you so much.
Rejoice that you wouldn't feel like you do if you're not saved.....the devil doesn't need to attack non believers in this way

Don't give up reading His word....and keep praying even if only to tell the Lord you are struggling with prayer
He won't let you down

There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Romans 8:1

What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us?
Romans 8:31

Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord
Romans 8:37-39

I feel like this is bad, is it?
I'm trying to over come it but it isn't working
And I just feel like I don't believe,
Do I lose my salvation over this
Need prayers

For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
Jeremiah 29:11

I thought of your post and this song came to mind @Amberstimpfle

 

[Amberstimpfle]

[Fragrant Grace]

It just sucks! I'm sorry!

Whats sucks @Amberstimpfle

What are you referring to?

 

[Amberstimpfle]

About what I'm going through, just because the disbelief it's like I believe God help me with my disbelief! And I keep praying and praying and I just want it to be done so I can have that joy and fire I had when I first accepted Christ.. I want that trust again

It's just like I want that fire and joy I had and now I just have disbelief and no trust. Like it's not me but my flesh doing it then it just messes with my head! Idk what to do I keep praying a lot so we'll see

Ahh i know what you mean when you say I just want it done.
I have felt like that many times when Ive been in periods of doubt

It can be so hard to get into the word when the devil is whispering doubt in your ear
But I'm reminded of a Bible verse

So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God
Romans 10:17.

Immerse yourself in the Word, in the Lord's unfailing promises
Speak out these promises....rely on them.....rather than your own fleshy emotions

Please pray for me! I've been reading the bible but it's like the devil just doesn't allow my flesh to accept what im hearing I just feel like a mess up because this is happening and I want to win this battle. With Jesus though only Jesus
I already know I'm my head I won't give in to the devil but he really is making me pay haha thank you so much

And I'm just listening to the evil one when he tells me I'm not saved and I'm going to hell because of this. I need help.

Well, there you go, stop listening to those negative thoughts for nothing negative can come from God.

I accepted Christ about 7 months ago into my life

You were saved, Born Again!....check!

Everything was going awesome! I was on fire for Christ and everything

A good strong response...check!

the past couple of months have been bad.

And I just feel like I don't believe,

Satin and the old sin doubt creeps in!

Do I lose my salvation over this

Nope! Being Born Aagin means that Christ is in you and he said he would never leave or forsake you....you can't fall away from a God like that!

And I'm just listening to the evil one when he tells me I'm not saved and I'm going to hell because of this.

Of course you are!

I need help

You testified that you were born again, that you felt good and was on fire! That is proof of your salvation and your regeneration..."the old is gone and the new has come"!..." you are justified by your faith" !
Like in the old gospel song, "Amazing Grace" ..."How precious did that Grace appear The hour I first believed."
Do what I do when the devil tries to creep in......go back to the moment when you first believed, be reassured and tell Satin to take a hike!
