I had a pretty hard life, I've been bullied and that lead me to depression, self-harming and trying to kill myself. God has helped me through all of it, I haven't self-harmed in like... 9-10 months and I haven't tried to kill myself since last year and I feel happy most of the time but... sometimes some horrible thoughts come to my mind and I can't help but thinking it can be... the devil. What if God hates me for harming my self and now he's leaving me with the devil?

God would never leave you or forsake you - it says so in His word nor could God EVER hate you because God does not hate people - only sin never the sinner. Satan will tempt you into thinking this way - never God. Whenever you feel Satan is tempting you with these thoughts just mention the name of Jesus - he has no answer to that.
"Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."
James 4:7

If we look at a more primitive version of a Father-daughter/son relationship (our Earthly parents), most typically have unconditional love for their children. Now, lets look at a more perfected form of unconditional love in our relationship with our Heavenly Father. We know from numerous scriptures, one being John 3:16, that God loves us so much... Whatever sins you have committed, the Savior washes away when you accept Him and ask for forgiveness. This doesn't mean God rejoices when we sin, however, He rejoices when we turn to him. You forsaking your past actions is evidence of that. Even if you didn't forsake it, He would still love you... Kind of amazing if you really think about it.

As for why things somethings go south for you, I have no idea. I just know it's not because God "hates" you. I'm not even sure if it's really the Devil. It could be psychological. Either way, I think it would be very wise to speak to a professional (continually) and follow their advice... all while working on your personal relationship with the Lord of course.

God cannot take over peoples free will and force them not to be mean. But He can help you not be hurt by it.

Believe it or not, you're really special to God! Many go though this but not many Christians are chosen like you. There's a reason behind everything and the trials that God is putting you through now is only setting you up for something greater in your future. What that future endeavor is? I don't know... Whether it's saving someones life or putting you into a situation that you can personally/spiritually/mentally handle with great success that the others around you can't because they haven't been in your shoes. It's spiritual conditioning, I know because I've been there myself. Continue to trust in God and embrace the little things, everything happens for a reason and you're apart of a greater plan that will impact many lives.

Hi GodLoverMeow,

The TRUTH is God loves you. Anything else is a lie. Don't listen to it.

When you have a bad thought, stop, and immediately start talking to the Lord, and keep talking to him until you are comforted by his Spirit. As a Believer, His Spirit is with you and will respond by comforting you. Say whatever you want to Him. He'll take it from there. It can be as simple as, "Jesus, I love you. I believe you're with me. Help me. Show me the way. I ask it in Jesus' name. Thank you Lord."

Focusing on and talking to the Lord will draw you into his Presence.

God bless you. He is with you GodLoverMeow!

I know exactly what you mean, about demonic thought's and all. What I do with my difficult thoughts is put them under a mental microscope and learn everything I can about them. I try to build a mental map of all the cause's and effects my (Demonic) thought's have on myself and the world, that way I know what's causing what and what's effecting what. Without knowing yourself you're powerless to change.
