Unworthiness

 If you are feeling like a sinner:


“Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand.”


You seem to be having this sense of unworthiness while reading the Bible.


What you are experiencing might just be true repentance. Repentance is more than an apology. An apology means to ask the Lord to forgive you, but repentance means living a truly transformed life. It means turning over a new leaf and being a new person. It is no longer you that lives but Christ that lives in you. Galatians 2:20


I strongly advise baptism by water if you have not yet been baptized.


You need to leave behind your old body so that you are dead in the flesh, then allow the spirit of God to fill your body, giving you new life. Romans 8:10


You will be a new person. You need to say goodbye to your old self. Ephesians 4:22. Some people will even change their names after baptism. If the devil accuses you again after this, remind yourself that that was a different person. You are a different person. That wasn’t you. That was someone else.


Some people are baptized twice because their first baptism was a catholic baptism, or they were too young to know what they were doing, etc. maybe find a church that will conduct a second water baptism for you. I know Jesus Image in Florida does. My church does as well.

Couple Disagreements -- To Move or Stay Put?

It's not up to either of you nor is it our place to advice you. You both need to pray and seek the Lord for guidance on this. The Lord has led us as a family from one place to another. There is a time to move and there is a time to stay put. Ask the Lord for guidance. Also, submission to your husband and saving your marriage is more important than money. How to Pray: Both of you, go to a room, whether alone or together, close your eyes, ask God to give you guidance on whether to move or stay, and ask Him for a book, chapter and verse. Then wait for it with eyes closed. Wait for the book, chapter number and verse number. Read the whole chapter anyway, including the key verse.  It's hard the first few times but you'll get it over time, do it everyday as devotion. Get a notebook or Google Drive to write down what God is saying. Then match your verse and understanding with his. After a few days, you kind of know where this is going.

How to Fast the Right Way

First of all, motive. Fast to draw close to Him, and don't let anyone know that you're fasting. Matthew 6:16-18  For a Full Fast: Just tell them that you're taking some time off will be booked on those dates and can't be contacted during those periods.  Turn your phone on silent mode. It's basically only for emergencies, or else, don't answer at all. Lock yourself in your room. Matthew 6:6-7 Drink lots of water if you're going on a full fast. If you're living with others, only go out of the room to get more water. What you actually do: No work, no play, just fast and pray. And worship and Word and talk to Him and draw close to Him. And write down what He says. Do your devotion.

How God Saved My Marriage on the 9th year...

Please don't give up. Remember Smith Wigglesworth. There is hope. Pray for your husband everyday. I have a secret formula that I just found out recently -- intercession -- it's not what I thought it was. It's more than just crying on behalf of someone. It's praying on behalf of someone, like, Nehemiah, "Forgive us," he prayed on behalf of his forefathers. This means praying for your husband be like, "On behalf of my husband, Lord, Jesus, I pray, forgive my sins and help me to be more like You, help me to be a good dad and help me to draw close to You. Use me to be a mighty man of God, etc....." and just allow the Holy Spirit to lead you to pray him into the man He wants him to be. Things only took a turnaround on about the 9th year or so. It was so bad that even when I tried date night, like playing a board game with him, he will be on his phone playing his game. His heart was not into us at all. I learned from one of these godly moms in the comments...
