Mumu. U wan serve god. You no go enjoy ya freedom.

Freedom to do what exactly?

Freedom to furnicate, tell lies or to do all sort of negative things? I don't think I need such freedom anymore.
I am tired of such freedom. It has done more harm to me than Good.

Op Jesus loves you, he died for you so you would be saved.what is happening to you is that Jesus wants to enter into your heart and take over your life, would you let him. Every man is a sinner by birth even if you were born in a christian home it doesn't matter Jesus came to save sinners like you and I only we should open our heart to him and accept him as our saviour and his sacrifice as the price for our sins, if you do then you would be God's son (born again) if you refuse then the forces that has always controlled you will continue and you will remain in your sins.
If you have accepted Jesus as your saviour, you have to be baptise and look for a mature Christian to help you in your walk. Depend on God for you day to day living by praying and studying your bible.
John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.


The powers of darkness WILL COME AFTER YOU.
But don't be afraid the Lord is with you.pray with bible verses, study the bible and always sing praises to God. LIVE A HOLY LIFE because Jesus, his father and his Spirit are all holy.
Lastly, avoid false religions like Jehovah witness, atheism,Islam etc occult practices,spirit conjuring etc
Put your 100% faith in Jesus always remember his word.
God bless you.

Thanks so much.
I am really encouraged.

why are you asking fallible humans to lead you to him if this God exists, is everywhere and is as powerful as his believers claim?

I believe He exists, Everywhere and Powerful.

When you were a child, you reason and talk like a child. Now that you are an adult, you reason and talk like an adult.
Experience they say is the best teacher. There are so many Christians who I believe might have passed through or know of those who have passed through similar situation. With their experiences and knowledge of the word of God, I believe they can advise someone like me who is still a baby in the faith.

O!! your story touched me. As christians, we have the assurance that when we stumble and fall, with the help of God we will get back on our feets. Many atimes, it has happened to me. When we feel so sorry abt our since and the fact that we once went astray.. Its called Godly Sorrow. The fact that your sincere and for you to even speak out means ur truly sorry,and Christ is pleased. Just repent from your sins and mean it from the depth of your heart,ask for God's forgiveness and he will take it up from there. Pls find yourself a Bible Believing church,so as to have a spiritual covering over you and your family. Its neccesary. I wish you all the best in Jesus Name,Amen.

Thanks

Maybe you have a calling who knows?... talk to someone, you definitely need help from someone with more experience and insight than you do. Good luck bruh.

Yea. I know I need help.
There was this guy I told some time ago. He is a pastor of a small church who is desperately in need of members. The first day I attended his church, he made me his assistant. That really discouraged me. I was like how will I just jump from the world to the pulpit? I had to run away from him.

God is within you. God has found you and you have found God because you have retraced your steps and acknowledged your poor taste in life. So you do not need someone to drag you to God, you need a partner who will help your faith grow. But there are only very few genuine people in that circumstance. Most are also searching for what they can get from God if not they will not think of God. Many are also very worldly but believe that if they are not commiting sexual sins or stealing then they are good to go. So, if your wife is also willing to change or follow God the way you have chosen, she I the best partner you can get. Both of you work in unity.

I really appreciate your advise.

Good day all.

I do not intent to bore you guys with my story. I need urgent advice and help from the Pastors and Evangelists in the house.

I was not born into a Christian family, although my dad told me he was a dedicated Christian before he decided to go the other way (being a native doctor). So I didn't grow up as a church goer.

When I was in primary school, I used to have this group of Jehovah Witnesses, who usually come to study the bible with me. They introduced Christianity to me. They taught me how to study the bible. By the time I got to secondary school, I developed the habit of studying the bible on my own. I so much loved the teachings especially the New Testament. I made sure I apply the bible principles in my daily life even though I was not attending any church. This really helped me to the extent I was always referred to as a good and responsible boy both at home and in school.

Later on, I would sometimes follow my neighbours to church - this my dad was not happy with. In one of the church services, I had an experience during worship, my body changed. I could feel a kind of cool breeze and suddenly, I became so light that I could not stand, and I found myself on the floor. Up to today, I can not really tell what it was.

Not long, I stopped attending church because my dad was not happy with it. But I continued my personal bible study and fortunately, another group of Jehovah Witnesses started visiting me.

After my WAEC, I had a dream. In this dream, I saw myself standing in front of our house, thinking of what to do since I was done with my secondary education. Suddenly, a ladder came down from the sky and its base was just directly in front of me. When I looked up, I saw someone coming down from the ladder. I was so scared. He was coming to me and I thought of running away. Suddenly, there was this bright light behind me. It was so bright that I was like a small object at the centre. I was frightened, I wanted to know the source of the light but I could not turn my head to look back. As I was struggling to turn my head, the man from the ladder was so closed to me and I suddenly woke up from the sleep. I keep remembering this dream even after so many years. I didn't tell any one and I keep wondering what it means.

When I entered university, I started hustling and mingling with different kinds of people. Gradually, I lost interest in the bible and things concerning church. I started having girlfriends and living a wayward life. It was so bad to the extent that I started patronising prostitutes. When ever I don't have money for prostitutes, I would masturbate. Even before I graduated from school, masturbation was like a hubby to me.

Fast forward to today, I am married with two lovely kids (girls). Gradually I have been able to stop masturbation although I seldomly patronise prostitutes.

The truth is that I am not happy with my life. Things are not the way they ought to be. I keep thinking of death. I keep imagining if I die now where will I be. I need help as soon as possible. I want to repent from my sins and serve God before I leave this earth. I am so scared of dying without Christ. It seems I cannot help myself. I feel so ashamed with myself. My major problem is that I don't even know where to go and who to meet. I cant pray. My heart seems hardened. I see pastors as scammers but I know Jesus is real. I am so confused. Could it be that the dream I had then was a sign or just meaningless?

I need serious deliverance.

I need help to retrace my steps back to God

Please Pastors and Evangelists in the house help.
