Nevena Pascaleva

@RissKissBliss66 @stgkingdavid Wow, I had a similar experience....

@stgkingdavid I cried out for Him in my darkest depression crying in the shower and all of a sudden I felt this warm hug and I immediately felt love and happiness. Going from balling my eyes out to tears of joy was a rush. Sounds crazy as I’m typing this out, but I know what I felt.

how did you come to believe in Jesus?

@EncouragmentF God hasn't left you. Battle with all your strength. (Medication is not excluded. Sometimes we need it.)

Please pray for me. I haven't slept in 3 days, and I'm getting attacked from all angles. Anxiety is beyond what I can deal with right now. I'm sorry to ask, God bless you 😞 Thankyou Benjamin

@rascal113646 @EncouragmentF @HispanHombre I do this, too. It helps.

@EncouragmentF @HispanHombre When this happens to me it feels like a spiritual attack. I repeat this phrase in my mind and sometimes I whisper it out loud. "Satan get away from me. I belong to Jesus Christ." Over and over until I feel less anxious. I will pray for you.

@healing_Praise Absolutely - but not when said as an exclamation. 😪

Do you agree that there's power in the name of Jesus Christ?

@justin_author Do you really care or you're just using me?

#WritingCommunity Your main character has been given a truth serum. What question are they most afraid their FRIENDS might ask?

@gracekbianco I'm really happy! :)

@NPascaleva I’m feeling better. I was a little emotional yesterday. It still comes and goes in waves, but overall, I am better! Thanks for checking in 🤍

God knows what He’s doing even when you don’t. Trust Him! ”As you do not know the way the spirit comes to the bones in the womb of a woman with child, so you do not know the work of God who makes everything.“ Ecclesiastes 11:5 ESV

@EimeeLoza @crossofpraise Hi, Emi, I've been praying for years for my husband, too. he's e believer, but differently and I wish he could know Jesus personally. However, I realized that it's between God and him, and my job is to show Jesus through my character. So that's what I'm doing now.

@crossofpraise I’m waiting on a miracle… for my husband to come to know God intimately. We’re not equally yoked and have so many problems due to it. Trying to be humble and loving but his character is one of the world and it’s so hard. We’re separated right now but I miss him so much. Praying.

I believe in miracles. Do you?

@_anandacaseyy Sending all the love God's placed in my heart to you....

@healing_Praise That's me. 😊

Where are my Christian brothers and sisters? Comment "Hi" let me follow you. Let's spread the Gospel together.

@Lexa_in_Christ Bless you, Lexa. ❤️

Hi i'm Lexa. I was raped a few times when i was in my early teenage years. Jesus is with me every step of the way to make sure i will receive healing. One day i can help others. Some days are good, some days are very hard. But in faith i continue to be blessed. God bless!

@KObregonWriter You made my day. 😊😊😊

A week ago, I dreamt I was pregnant (I’m 55) and last night I dreamt about having a baby. I was changing her, holding her, swaddling her. God, thank you for everything in my life, I’m completely grateful, but please don’t make me a Sarah!! 😂🤣🤣😳

@BitsOfWhitt Guilt is the worst thing. There are phases and I think one should follow their rhythm. If we love God and trust HIm, He'll take us where He wants to.

Brethren, what would you tell someone who is saved but doesn’t feel close to God, doesn’t feel like praying or reading the Bible, and is torn up about this fact?

@youlynew I'm sure it's not from God, as He's only love...it's really scary...

@NPascaleva What you are feeling is not from God. "For God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind." It sounds like you are under attack. I went through something similar very recently, but instead of fear it was dispair and emptiness.

Christians, when you get off track in your spiritual life, what do you do to get back on track?

@youlynew Of course! Thank you! I'm away on holiday, but I'll try to come here more often!

@NPascaleva The prayers of two believers got me through it and God delivered me from the pain I was in. May I repost your comment and ask others to pray for you?

@gracekbianco I know...

@NPascaleva I understand. God can seem scary, and He is a powerful God. But He truly loves His children. He loves you so much, Nevena. It can feel easier to just run away from Him, but we both know that isn’t going to fix our problems. It’s the enemy we should be scared of, not God. 🤍

You are NOT alone. ”fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” —Isaiah 41:10 ESV

@gracekbianco Thank you so much, Grace, you've been really helpful. I'll reach out to a friend in Bulgaria, too. And I'll be praying for you a lot, too. I've also noticed that praying for others helps. Lots of hugs and love!

I 100% understand that. You can start small like I did. Read verses and passages that validate your feelings (like Psalms and Job). Read the stories where they were in the thick of it too. As for worship music, you don’t have to force it. For a couple of weeks, I would have my car radio on and turn it down really low just enough to know it was on. That’s how I came across the song “Kind” by Cory Asbury. It talks about Holy Wars and running from Jesus. Whenever you feel your heart open up to worship again, I recommend it. When I couldn’t pray, I prayed for others. I had no idea what to say to God. So, I found it easier to pray quick prayers for others. I am still figuring out these things for myself. It seems easy for me to say, but trust me, I know that what you are feeling isn’t good. You will get there, but you have to continue to push yourself back to Him. Do you have a trusted pastor or a wise Christian friend that you could meet with to talk about this? Meeting with my pastor helped me see the hard truths in a better light. It may be helpful to talk to someone too.

@gracekbianco The thing is, I used to think so much about God that it sort of became intrusive and triggered the panic disorder, and now my brain is scared to go in that direction, something like your fear of vomiting. It's like a got fear of thinking about God, because it felt like going mad.

I am so sorry that you feel so alone. Have you read Ephesians 6 on spiritual warfare? What you described sounds so much like Satan’s attack on you. When we get into these dark places, we so easily can feel misunderstood by people and even God. There’s so many unanswered questions and that nagging feeling of defeat. It feels hopeless. And when things feel hopeless, that’s when Satan will whisper all kinds of lies in our ears. Like you read in my post, I hardly fought back in the beginning of my own spiritual battle, but we HAVE to fight back. Face those battles head on. Pray like never before. Listen and sing worship songs. Read the Word. Go to church. Show Satan that his attacks can’t pull you away from God. You’ll be so submerged in all things God that Satan will just want to give up. He’ll grow bored of your faithfulness. And you’ll be left with more faith, strength, peace, and joy than ever before. I am here for you! I know being in the pit feels awful. It feels as lonely as one can possibly feel. But don’t forget that you aren’t actually alone. God is ALWAYS with you whether you feel Him or not. I’ll be praying for you!

@chris_jolliff That's absolutely terrifying. maybe a sort of artificial immortality?

I think about this passage often: “In those days men will seek death and will not find it; they will desire to die, and death will flee from them.” —Revelation 9:6 What are your thoughts on this passage?
