When Satan Tempts You to Despair

Unbelief, not faith, hides from Jesus after falling into sin. Trust runs to the one we have offended for the grace and mercy Jesus already purchased at the cross.

    What an incredible statement " I sin everyday." -John Piper thanks because I sin everyday in my mind I could never be as close to Jesus as you are to Him. I hear so many pastors preaching repentance but non openly say they fall short everyday. John Piper is a pastor that teaches pastors . Thanks I needed to hear this.

    if you too have unclean and blasphemous thoughts, these are only temptations. It's the devil who puts them in your head. I know, I had the same. For months it ruined my life. One evening I couldn't take it anymore so I prayed a rosary for it and those thoughts suddenly disappeared. As soon as they return, with each temptation, I call Mary with confidence and these thoughts go away from me. Believe me! These are only temptations! I know a mystical woman who receives messages from Jesus, and Jesus told me through her to put everything in her Heart so that He fights for me. Jesus told me “I want to offer you so many victories!”. So if he said that to me, he would say it to you too! Hang in there! Pray for this, pray to get closer to God and do not give in to the attacks of the demon who makes you believe that you cannot get closer to God

    @@dudemanguy1116 At Tobie 12 12 and Job 23 33 (or 33 23?) there are angels intercessors. Catholics have the faith of the catholic church herited by Jesus and the Apostles, and truth the interpretation of the Bible of the catholic church, discerned by popes and theologists dured 2000 years with the Holy Spirit. The Bible is herited from the catholic church, who has compile all the books of the Bible... So, the Bible can't be separated by the Church. An personnal interpretation has every chance of falling next, the proof there are plenty of Protestants. I don't understand why you say intercession is idolatry. If you ask to a friend "pray for me" it's intercession and not idolatry. An image is not idolatry. In the Ancient Testament it's the idolatry that is condamned, not the images for her. God like when Mary purify your prayers and intentions for Him Look this versets all relative to the Church : Matthew 16 18, 1 Corinthians 1 10, 1 Timothee 3 15. And the are also in the Bible, mentionned Sacrements of the Church, Confess and Eucharisty are at John 20 23 and all the chapter of John 6. I will pray for you because it's so sad to reject the Church of the Christ and don't profit from all the graces that God would give to you. With all my charity

Real quick they took the 10th commandment out amd split 9 into 2 to make ten. Mary was a regular person. That's why in matthew Jesus did not run to her and his brothers while he was teaching and told the listeners that WE are His mother and brothers.

(1 Jn 1:9) Praise to our glorious Lord Jesus Christ!! Always maintain a humble and repented heart attitude towards our Father and forgiveness will always be available to us in Christ Jesus despite how guilty we might feel. God eagerly waits for us to come to Him and to hear our repentance. Remain repentant and dependent on Him!!

    Please know that that is never the way out. Jesus brought our bodies with his blood. It's not our right to take ourselves out of the world. Please know that he loves you❤️ I encourage you to invite Jesus into these moments when you have these thoughts. Instead of shutting him out and dealing with it on your own and feeling bad about it. Call out to him to and say Jesus help me! Be with me! Save me! I guarantee you he will show up. I had to do this other day when I was dealing with a temptation. I could feel the temptation coming on and I could feel my mind wondering. I called out to him in my head and he showed up and decrease the temptation. You are a new person in Christ Jesus those thoughts are from the devil trying to pull you back into your old self. But that's not who you are anymore.I hope this helps and I take what you said very seriously and I will pray for you. We are all part of the body of Christ and brothers and sisters. Know that you're not alone and know that you're loved. By Christ and by your brothers and sisters in Christ. Also you can talk to me anytime you want you can send me a message doesn't matter what time of day. God loves you❤️

    if you too have unclean and blasphemous thoughts, these are only temptations. It's the devil who puts them in your head. I know, I had the same. For months it ruined my life. One evening I couldn't take it anymore so I prayed a rosary for it and those thoughts suddenly disappeared. As soon as they return, with each temptation, I call Mary with confidence and these thoughts go away from me. Believe me! These are only temptations! I know a mystical woman who receives messages from Jesus, and Jesus told me through her to put everything in her Heart so that He fights for me. Jesus told me “I want to offer you so many victories!”. So if he said that to me, he would say it to you too! Hang in there! Pray for this, pray to get closer to God and do not give in to the attacks of the demon who makes you believe that you cannot get closer to God

    Okay I just read the transcript.. guilt doesn't make sense to me still though.. I can't relate.. probably because I prayed and asked Him "have I done anything wrong" and He said "No. You're Mine, you are My Name living visting on Earth supplicating. And I haven't done wrong you haven't done wrong." The Spirit says to Me gangstalking the Name of God is blasphemy of the Holy Spirit and is unforgivable. Father said He will punish them perpetually until they make good on what they owe in damages in Gross, even to bring down the entire nation. I'm not going to be less loving and harden my heart to having a wife and kids and continued innocence and holiness which is what gangstalkers are trying to do (to corrupt holiness) nor am I going to beseech any defense for the gangstalkers that Father ease up other nations for them or accept less than full gross payment to His Name.. so although they pay anyone else.. foreigners and trade deals it will only be to the peril of the defense of gangstalkers and their cointel hackers.

    You can’t just tell people to repent of something you’re ASSUMING that they are doing. There is a biblical backing for doctrinally sound pastors and shepherds-teachers of the word. Many people here are not puffing John up. In fact, he himself has made confessions openly about things he struggles with. I appreciate your zeal, but it seems a little mistaken. Do you think the people that turned to Paul for answers got it wrong? Paul preached Christ and him crucified. He even said “follow me as I follow Christ.” We need encouraging, shepherding pastors that preach the truth in love.

    Hey Father. Why doesn't God just raise his little pinky and utterly destroy and wipe out Satan? He has the absolute power and authority to do so, so why doesn't he? I know you say "it is because God wants us to walk through those gates of temptation and emerge victorious against Satan and temptation on the other side." But, I think that God created Lucifer and then kicked him out of heaven and turned him into Satan, simply to create a cosmic gag reel to entertain himself with; God is up there watching what Satan is putting us through, and he is laughing his sick 'effing ass off! This seems a more likely justification for allowing Satan to exist in this world and manipulate people into doing all of these truly heinous things. I am outraged at this. We should sue God for all of the crimes against humanity he been an accomplice in and complicit with! 😢

    If I'm not mistaken Satan was a creation like us. He gave free will and Satan chose to sin against him. God gave his son as an offering for the worlds sins that, that we would be overwhelmed with His grace. Sin was used as an example to illuminate just how holy and awesome God is. He is righteous and pure and we cannot even fathom. Therefore, sin gives us a glimpse of his perfection through sin we are able to see our lack of righteousness. Which then reveals to us just how much we need God.

    @@abcisneros91 God created Lucifer, but he created Lucifer as a powerful arc angel. Then, God tasked the arc angels with answering the prayers of man. This didn't sit well with Lucifer who refused to be subservient to humans.. He was revolted by us and because of this he rebelled against God and declared a war against him. He ultimately and inevitably lost and was cast down into Hell; his very own kingdom where he rules unchallenged for eternity... Hell is the ultimate shit hole tho! Lucifer blames us for his tragic fate and seeks our ruin. We Are no match for him; he was an arc angel after all! So God sent his only son Jesus to be sacrificed for us, so we can take communion and pray for his help. Now, there Are a million things wrong with this scenario! Check out Christopher Hitchens R.I.P. for a brief synopsis of why this scenario is immoral, irrational and terribly unfair! :-)

    But if our unrighteousness brings out God’s righteousness more clearly, what shall we say? That God is unjust in bringing his wrath on us? (I am using a human argument.) Certainly not! If that were so, how could God judge the world? Someone might argue, “If my falsehood enhances God’s truthfulness and so increases his glory, why am I still condemned as a sinner?” Why not say-as some slanderously claim that we say-“Let us do evil that good may result”? Their condemnation is just! Romans 3:5‭-‬8 NIV

Idolatry is a problem seeing that only God is righteous and pure, all knowing and powerful. If we put our hopes and trust in anything less we are committing idolatry and can excpet failure and disappointment. This sin is what God wanted to prevent.
