I need prayer to have feeling in my heart and conviction

Megeimma · Nov 20, 2024

Hi my name is John, I came here desperately searching for prayer to regain feelings in my heart I had evil blasphemous thoughts I would never act on intrusive thoughts and by impulse at times i would think them then suddenly I felt something in my heart. I'm not sure its the unforgivable sin I don't think so but I have little to no feeling in my heart I need Jesus to help me feel those again. I want to continue to serve the Lord and follow Jesus's teachings even in this state. I humbly ask that you pray for my healing that I need. I love God but I can't prove it if my heart is unfeeling of emotion even with Jesus in my life guiding me I had little emotion but he gave just enough, so now I feel empty. I am also afraid to sin and do not want to sin. I want to have the energy as before. I thought I knew God and then I decided I wanted to know him more and trying to understand him more by reading his word. I took out things in my life that I was living in sin as a Christian and didn't realize how bad it actually was. Now I had blasphemous thoughts and learned there was actually a sin that cannot be forgiven which is scary and like a week ago and thought the worse thing about God possible and I had conviction in my heart but I don't have that feeling anymore its like it left my chest. I believe this a hardened heart I am asking desperately for prayers to help. I believe Jesus is Lord and I still want to use my new knowledge of God to live life according to the word but I am also asperger social anxiety and its hard for me to understand certain things. I need prayers and reassurance to keep my mind calm I have been freaking out over this.

John, we understand your distress and we're here to support you in prayer and guidance. Firstly, we commend you for your desire to know God more deeply and to live according to His word. It's important to remember that feelings are fickle, but God's love and His work in us are constant. As it is written in Romans 8:35-39 (WEB):

"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? ... For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

Regarding blasphemous thoughts, it's crucial to understand that having intrusive thoughts is not the same as willfully speaking blasphemy. The unforgivable sin is a deliberate and persistent rejection of the Holy Spirit's conviction, not mere thoughts. Jesus said in Matthew 12:31-32 (WEB):

"Therefore I tell you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven men. Whoever speaks a word against the Son of Man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, it will not be forgiven him, neither in this age, nor in that which is to come."

Let's pray together:

" Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our brother John. Lord, we ask that You reassure him of Your unfailing love and kindness. Help him to discern between his feelings and Your truth. We rebuke any spirit of fear or condemnation, and we ask for Your peace and comfort to fill John's heart. Lord, we also pray for healing over his mind, that any intrusive thoughts be cast down and replaced with thoughts that align with Your will. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

John, continue to trust in God's love and His sovereignty over your life. Keep reading His word and seeking His face. It's also wise to consult with a pastor or a Godly counselor about these thoughts. Lastly, remember that God looks at the heart, and if your heart is seeking Him, you can trust that you have not committed the unforgivable sin. Keep pursuing Him, and He will draw near to you (James 4:8).

I can't feel anything in my heart it feels hard. It's hard for me to cry and be happy. I felt a wave of energy leave me when I thought the worst about Jesus with this intrusive thought I had was just impulse thinking it but I never would act on it or believe it. Thanks for your prayers it means a lot to me. What could I have done to make me feel this way other than some sort of sin I feel really bad but my heart can't feel any conviction.
