True Faith.

[Thaddo1018]

I will admit, I have trouble believing, sometimes. But all I long for is absolute faith, nothing short of it. Why do I doubt the existence of my Creator? I don't want to, but I know that it is human nature to do so (unless that is Satan whispering to me). I want to believe that Jesus is truly with me. And I long for that real relationship with him...But I can't fight off that need for "evidence." I don't want to rely on evidence to believe in Him. I just want Him to fill me. And lots of times, He does. But sometimes, I am constantly looking up proof. I look up stories of demonic activity, stories of angel encounters. But especially when it comes to researching dark forces, I know I shouldn't go near that. I just want to believe with all of my heart. I long for that. Please, pray that I will find the truth. I love Jesus with all I have. I just hope, with all my heart, that it is real. Thank you, and God bless.

Thaddo1018, I am going through the same battle. There is plenty of evidence, we do not have to have blind faith.

Here's some resources that have helped me:

drdino.com (creation science)

reasonablefaith.com

A Case for Christ (book, study guide & movie on netflix)

A Case for Faith (movie)

A Case for A Creator (movie)

And of course, listening to the bible, there is something about listening to the bible...I got the idea when I read that scripture that states, "Faith comes by hearing & hearing by the word of God"

Thaddo, all of us have experienced this "need of proof", it is a part of the Christian experience. Know that this is normal, and do not let this harm you. God will see you through this and you will be stronger because of it. God's ways are not like ours...and with him, "you will see it when you believe it"

Father God, I come to you on behalf of your son Thaddo, a man that you love so very much. I ask Lord, that you fill him with your loving spirit. I ask that you guide him with your wonderful wisdom. I pray that your plan, your purpose unfold in his life. I ask that you protect him and keep him in all your ways. Please bless him with your presence, so that he may worship you, serve you. I ask that you meet his needs, in body, soul and spirt. Give him guidance, give him direction. May he experience your love. This I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen

Oh yes there are demonic forces and you must stay away from them. They can not help you so why search them out. Focus on the things of heaven. If you pray aloud stop and pray in your spirit. There are demons all around us and when they hear us pray they decipher our needs and plan stratagies to interupt them.Maybe your lack of faith is because satan knows that faith is your weakness and he has launched an attack on your faith.Pray Pslam #61 daily.

Lord let him know for certainity that Jesus you are the way the truth and the life. Help him to fill his mind with your Word your Word produces life and truth. Help him to receive by faith. In Jesus Name Amen

 

[Thaddo1018]

I just wanted to say thank you to all of you, these past few days have been unlike anything I have ever experienced. Your prayers have helped me so much!

My brother,

I read a verse from the bible that made me chuckle, but it was simple and straightforward concerning God.

Why should the nations say,

‘Now, where is their God?’

Our God is in the heavens— All that he delights in, he does.â€

(Psalm 115:2-3)

I do not doubt in the existence of God, but sometimes i can doubt certain situations and yet God comes through for me repeatedly, i found one beautiful verse that helped me in Mark 9:24 Immediately the boy's father exclaimed, "I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!

Ask God to help you overcome unbelief in every areas of your life, he is faithful and will answer you.
