What experience did you go through or what did you feel when you were saved? I have talked to people about it and seen people's born again moments, and they usually have a dramatic experience(like collapsing or talking in tongues). And I haven't experience something like that yet. Which makes me wonder if I am broken? Does God not want me? People always say you have to be predestined by God, I have been praying and asking Jesus into my heart and I do mean it, but I don't feel different. I don't think God wants me and I am going to perish in hell for it. Please help.
Does your heavenly Father really love you?
"Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love" (Jeremiah 31:3
" For the Father Himself loveth you." (John 16:27
Jesus would have came and given His life for you, even if you were the only person to be redeemed! You are extremely precious in His sight. His sent His only Son, to save you. Please don't forget that fact!
"But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8)
Do you want to know what you must do to obtain the gift of Salvation?
This is what you do: Believe it and accept it as a pure gift!
"Being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus." (Romans 3:24)
"A man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law." (Romans 3:28)
Once you finally realize that you can do nothing to save yourself, believe these 3 things:
"If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed." (John 8:36)
"I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." (John 10:10)
"These things I have spoken to you...that your joy might be full."
Do not listen to those that tell you that you must have some type of "strange" expierence to KNOW you are saved. It is not true. The sign of the infilling of the Holy Spirit is a contrite heart that desires to Witness for Jesus.
When thoughts arise in your heart that God doesn't care for you,,, Immediately discard those thoughts!!! Repeat the scripture to yourself. Satan seeks to destroy you by continually telling you that you are worthless. Do not give ear to these lies! Keep your mind on Jesus. Contemplate heavenly themes as your day unfolds. Sing about Jesus. When you do these things, angels will come to your aid. Most important. Consecrate your day to God before you leave your bedside in the morn. If you draw close to God, He will draw even closer to you. I will pray for you.
