We all have bad thoughts sometimes. They can even be horrible or overwhelming. The best defense is God’s Word and seeking his presence in prayer. If you trust in the truth of Christ’s resurrection, he is certain to free you. Let his Spirit make you strong to resist the lies and attacks of the enemy. Christ’s victory is absolute and eternal.
For help in difficult times…
PRAYER AGAINST BAD THOUGHTS
Dear loving God,
Sometimes I have terrible thoughts that run through my head.
Do you see me, dear Lord? Do you see my struggle?
You are mighty. You are strong, and you love me.
Set me free Lord!
Remove the bad thoughts that torment me.
Cast the enemy out of my mind and my life. Let no attack, deceit or contamination affect me any more.
For I have been washed clean by the blood of the Lamb.
Your mighty Spirit protects me always.
All victory is yours alone.
Dear loving Lord, clear my mind, bring rest to my heart with the sweet caress of your loving grace.
In Jesus’ holy name,
Amen.
For some reason in my mind I keep using God’s name in vain. I have prayed hard and many times to go away and they don’t!
Keep asking Scott… keep trusting… ask for God to free you with the blood of Christ… don’t give up on him… he’s never going to give up on you!
I will be praying for you!
The Lord, Jesus Christ it’s something that everybody should believe and when they have questions like I just did it always ends up at the end if you want this help it’ll cost $49 and we will send you this that or the other. I have to tell you that is not true faith I noticed many Christian programs also they preach beautiful things but in the end they’re asking you to buy things I think that’s a disgrace upon Jesus. People like me that don’t have the money so we lose out on knowing everything we wanted to know and pray for that’s not through Jesus Christ I think you should put your head down and think of all the people that need it and can’t afford it amen
