Doubting your salvation?

"Are you sure you are saved? Why don't you feel like you are?"

When was the last time the devil asked you of this question? You are tempted to doubt and believe in the lies because you really don't feel you are saved. You still fail. You still fall into the sins that you repented of. You don't feel any "Christian" feeling that you were imagining you would feel. You are trying to justify that you are a Christian by enumerating to yourself some of the sins that you have overcome, or the changes that happened to you. "See, I have changed. For sure I am a Christian." And then unexpectedly, you gave into those temptations again. It turned out you have not overcome that sin completely. Now your performance failed you. Your feelings failed you. You have accepted Jesus as your Lord and my Savior so many times to make sure. But still, you don't feel like you are a Christian.

Feelings. 

It is really deceitful. 

"So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God."

-Romans 10:17

Faith is believing in the Word of God. Whether you feel it, you see it or not, it true.   Yes, there will be a lot of changes when you got saved, but it's a process. It won't happen overnight. You leave it to God. It's not your job, it's His. And I believe that when a person sincerely asks God to save him from his sins, God hears it. HE NEVER REJECTS ANYONE WHO COMES TO HIM. It is exactly His desire. 

So brother, if you feel like you have done everything, prayed fervently, believed and repented as hard as you can, know in yourself how sincere you are, but feel like it is so hard to be saved, as if you cannot achieve the status of being a Christian, I tell you, it's not true. You don't achieve it, you receive it by faith, knowing that God loves you so much and rejoices when you first came to Him. Be confident of God's love. Do not be distracted by this lie. Continue in Him.
