This forum is a sanctuary for those who are experiencing trials and tribulation and seek words of wisdom, comfort and TRUTH from fellow Christians who have experienced similar trials and tribulation and have overcome them. Never forget that we ALL fall down as we sojourn down this Christian Walk. The trick is to get up and carry on fighting the good fight of FAITH. One of the greatest gifts that our Father gave to Christians is ... Fellow Christians. James 5:16 ... Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much ...

One thing i learned this week is this a bogus prophecy spoken over me when i was a small child is one of the main roots of a lot of my mental health issues and sickness in the present life i thank Jesus he reveals things so we can get set free from them .....


A funny thing happened the other night though i was listening to a cd by Hawk Nelson Made and praying to God about my sickness and why a i always get bad colds in the winter and a memory popped in my head from years ago a lady that spoke a bogus word over me when i was 3 or 4 years old that i was a bastard child i had no father and that meant i was not going to heaven and i was headed strait to hell and that i was better off dead and I should pray to die I believe this is the start of the colds that i had for years and for the chronic depression i prayed to God to forgive her and prayed for any one elts she may have hurt to be healed !

Hello Ciny :)

God bless you this day. It is good to see you posting again.

I admit, whenever I hear about situations like yours where people have told horrible lies to children, I want to go after those people. Thankfully I know that my own disgust for what was said or done doesn't compare to what God feels about it, since the babes are His -- and you, dear Ciny, are one of His babes. And, The Almighty Father God loves you, Ciny. I'm so inspired by the fact that you choose to pray and forgive those that have hurt you. No doubt, God is fully in that loving action. Hallelujah!

Vengeance is Mine, says The Lord!!!

As far as colds go, some of us are more prone to colds than others. From a very young age, I suffered bouts of acute bronchitis nearly every time I got a cold -- which happened several times a year. And then as an adult, because I also took up smoking, it got worse and worse, and at some point turned from acute bronchitis to chronic bronchitis. Now I have COPD. I quit smoking 2 years and 3 months ago. And even though I am a lot older than you, and have an medically incurable condition, I have hope. So, keep hope alive, lean on The Lord and research what foods are good for lung health and try to incorporate them into your diet.

Prayers are rising for you, Ciny, in the name of Jesus. God's will be done.

Again, it's good to see you posting again, Ciny.

God bless and keep you.
Love,
Mack

You know something ciny...it's amazing how a person can say horrible things to children....and children being so innocent have no choice but to believe what is said to them....and it takes years to remove those thoughts from a person....and it also makes me think of Jesus....how He loved the children and took opportunities to stop and take time with them....I believe it's because He knew that children are impressionable, and He wanted them to remember that He is love. Ciny, that lady had no right to say those things to you....and I pray you have found a way to forgive her for those mean words....and just know that Jesus heard her say those words to you....and He wants you to know that Her words were just that...words...nothing more...and they were NOT true. You are beautiful ciny, and you are good.

*hugs*

I'am still on step two your mind is the garden okay it says in step tow admitting you have a problem is half the battle soo I'am admitting that i have a problem Negative and abusive people I have been around is part of this VENTING some here ....

I keep getting thoughts that i'am no good and not worth anything i know that God's word says different Like i have a hope and a future in him with a good out come Jeremiah 29;11 and that i am fearfully and wonderfully made Psalms 149;14

Having issues with church as well which i think ties in with this the pastor seems to me to be a a bully and a big dictator cussing out people yelling at us what he says goes i have been sick for quite a while with a cold but i 'am faking it i 'am having trouble telling the church from the world been very heavy on my heart getting depressing been praying about going to a new church heart is breaking :cry:

*help* Me Father God to let go and let you have control like it says in step two to do in Jesus name amen ...............

Wow ciny, I will keep your church in my prayer. Just know that Jesus is the Head of the Church, and any adversity that comes against it, He will settle. Place your trust in Him regarding these things and know that He is in control.

Keep working on your mind.

Hello Ciny :)

God bless you this day.

I'm sorry to hear that the church building that you attend and its congregation is in turmoil right now. I, too, would have an issue if a pastor lead from his old nature as opposed to the new one The Lord gives those who accept Jesus as Saviour. I realize our old nature is ornery and at times challenging to overcome, but, we must know that In order to serve, we must lay down our old nature and let Christ's nature rise up in us.

I'm sending up prayers to our Lord in the name of Jesus on your behalf. God's will be done. I also pray for the pastor that Christ humble him. God's will be done.

God bless and keep you, Ciny.
Love,
Mack

Hi Ciny! *Wave*

You mentioned....
I keep getting thoughts that i'am no good and not worth anything i know that God's word says different Like i have a hope and a future in him with a good out come Jeremiah 29;11 and that i am fearfully and wonderfully made Psalms 149;14

Keep telling those voices the truth over and over. I know it gets exhausting. You may also try just hearing the words, with out fighting them, recognize them, realize where they are from and why you are hearing them, then let the truth peacefully come in and cover your brain and your soul. You are fearfully and wonderfully made, you are perfect in His sight, you are His bride, you are fit for the wedding supper, ect. Maybe write some down and keep around your area, in your pocket, purse, and car.

I've been through some really bad stuff at my church. God has gotten a hold of my church and shaken it up. He replaced the pastor and I love church again. I pray your church gets touched by God. I think you may be in a time where God is waiting for them to repent and change their ways. It's ok to visit other churches during this time so your spirit gets rest and you hear the word rightly spoken.

God loves you dear Ciny! And so do I! *hug*
*angel7* Sorrow looks back, Worry looks around, But faith looks up! Live simply, love generously, care deeply, speak kindly and trust in our Creator who loves us.
