I used to suffer with constant blasphemous and intrusive thoughts in general, even while sleeping my dreams were tormented. I was distant from God and barely knew how to pray, I thought I was going crazy and even attempted suicide. It was only after opening my heart and being honest to God that I couldn't do it without him and surrendering I was able to be freed. Learning to pray and going to church, God strengthened me.
God bless you, friend.
Please pray for me I suffer so badly from these blasphemous thoughts
Don't give into them or think they are coming from you not in a true way anyways cuz this is what the father of lies want, but don't be afraid of it either sing them away or think of them as a candy that you can spit out. Force yourself to ignore them for only when you give it power it will have power.
Don't worry about it as if you can do something to be disqualified from God's grace and lose your salvation. Once saved you remain saved.
@@alanwatts7822 you can lose your salvation - for if we go on sinning deliberately after receiving the knowledge of the truth, there no longer remains a sacrifice for sins- Hebrews 10 : 26 The early Church has always taught us this and this "free grace" stuff isnt true , put your HOPE in Jesus and obey Him or be one of those who say Lord Lord but are cast away becuase you didnt know Him
@@alanwatts7822 OSAS isnt true , the early church never taught it and it didnt appear until the modern era.
You have to wake up each morning prepared to stand guard at the door to your mind and do battle with the devil, Saint Paisios pray for us ☦️
Singing KILLS temptation and the devil. may the lord rebuke them.
I used to worship the enemy and mock God about a year ago due to constant failures in life, which I would bring upon myself and believing I was useless. The Lord supernaturally interrupted this in ways I thought were impossible, but remember, nothing is impossible with God. I was saved roughly two months after reading the Gospels. Honestly, I continue to deal with certain demons even after the Lord supernaturally made many of them just fade away. I have backslidden to some sinful behaviors and at times think I am going insane and despise myself and my flesh. This video puts things into perspective and has actually calmed me down quite a bit so I really appreciate it. All praise and glory to God, in Jesus name! 🙌
I LOVE St. Paisios! So much wisdom that helps me in my struggles. Pray for us, our beloved St. Paisios!
Thank You For This. I struggle with Depression and Suicidal Thoughts/Tendencies. God Bless You, Christ is Risen and Present in His Church - Orthodox
Man, there is some crazy synchronicity going on with my struggles, and this channels new videos. You always seem to post the perfect video in my time of need. Thank you, God bless!
Wow that amazing wisdom Pray to God for us St Paisios ☦️🙏 Christ has risen!!!
This helped me a lot. My heart is at peace now. Thanks to the Lord who solves our problems without even asking for help. I just randomly stumbled upon this video it was exactly what I needed. ✝️
Even on a psychiatric level this is 100% true
This one is real good.. Thank you!

This was like as if i was the one asking the questions. Thank you so much for your clarity, I just started reading the bible and going to church. I've been a victim of my own blasphemous thoughts since I was a teenager, I never had a strong role model and I grew up in an unstable environment. I'm 25 now and I'm aware of their destructive nature after giving into them for so many years, but still my awareness and experience is not enough to keep me above water. There are times that I get home after work and I would feel tired from the dreadful battle of fighting temptations all day. I pray to God for strength and confess my sins and my past sins and my weakness as a man but also my desire to change. Sometimes I feel like Its futile and I'm not being heard except for the one in the shadows. Im a dedicated reader of the bible but sometimes I feel like I'm standing on a toothpick above the ocean...it's not easy...

and I will lead you to the place I have prepared for you...
I will never leave you nor forsake you.

Good video. Thanks. God bless
This was timely. I know exactly how he feels.
The fact that I struggle with these thoughts and everything Saint Paisios explained perfectly resembles my struggles is just amazing. Thank you for posting this video and glory to god for everything he has done to help me get back up. Saint Paisios thank you for your guidance, please pray for us sinners! ☦️
...eschew evil, make with the good.
Thank you for your teaching.
"'Love your enemies, & pray for those who persecute you. Those that do this, will reap a bountiful reward.'"
I will remember this. Blessed Elder St. Paisos pray for us.
Needed this so much. I am very sensitive as a person so good to know🙏🙏🙏❤
this also applies to lustful thoughts, thank you
This is exactly what I needed to hear, God Bless St. Paisios!
Help me lord and please forgive me 🙏🏼🙏🏼.
By singing,he means chanting.
They are just thoughts. God knows your intention. You don’t have to micromanage every little thought. The very action of resisting and pushing away these thoughts promulgates them. Let them all come in and be as horrible as they can be - remember, it gets worse before it gets better, and remember God knows your heart & your intention. You have nothing to worry about. They are only thoughts. God bless.
Never stop praying brothers ☦️🙏🏻
Pray, Pray and Pray in the name of our Lord JesusChrist
All things are workable.
Please, do not just speak of dreams alone, but keep explaining them, with the interpretations. It is for each of us, who are aware of this form of communication, to write them down, & study Scripture, with the words of the images we are offered, to read about, & to clarify.
If you have yet to receive the gift of interpretation, ask the Father in heaven, in your closet, through private prayer, & see if He will be faithful to you, for the faithfulness you bear of Christ's prayer instructions, found in the 'gospel'.
If you wouldn't mind, watching the video I have shared, of two dreams sent to me, when I was a teenager, it would really help, to shed more of His light, as to what we are soon to be dealing with, & are, the few of us, who have seen.
Keep in mind, that if a dream or vision, show something more than once, it will happen for sure. If there is only one dream sent, another may have your missing portion. Use the words in His Word, to back up your own, as we are instructed to do, in both the Old Testament, & the New Testament.
All honor, glory, & praise, be to the Father God, & His Son, the LORD of Lords. 🥀
What’s the full chant of “I will open my mouth…” ?
It's the first Ode from the Akathist service to the Mother of God. A good translation from the Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America website:
'I shall open my mouth and it shall be filled with the Spirit; and I shall pour out a word to the Mother and Queen; and I shall be seen cheerfully celebrating; and rejoicing I shall sing her miracles.'
❤️☦️
I keep having these, what songs of worship not of the world can you showcase?
"Christ is risen from the dead, trampling dead by death and upon those in the tombs bestowing life."
"Holy, God, Holy Mighty, Holy Immortal have mercy on us!"
Or simply say: "O Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, glory to You"
What is in this context meant by blasphemous as opposed to "only" sinful? Downright cursing God?
Blasphemy is anything that attempts to mock, demean, or deceive God. It can be very obvious or very subtle. Blasphemy is like an infection, and faith in God is like a ray of light that destroys infectious. That is my own limited understanding. Christ is Risen 🕯
Hello can i still watch this as catholic?❤
You are most welcome😉
@@holyresurrectionofchristThank You❤
@@holyresurrectionofchristAlso Can I ask What Does He Meant By ignoring It❤
@@brcx1010pro we should never pay attention to our thought, fantasies or suggestions. Most of them come from the demons. I know this is scary but in the Orthodox Church we are always vigilant over the external impressions and thoughts. They are not ours.
We should never identify with our thoughts.
Unlike the Roman Catholics who do not have the same approach
@@holyresurrectionofchristOh Ok So Can I Still Follow St Paisos Suggestion? Even Tho im catholic
1:44 i dont think that is right
He giving an advice from personal experience, that sometimes if our prayer is unfocused it's fruitful to sing or chant in order to bring back our nepsis (spiritual vigilance) and continue to pray. Of course that the Jesus prayer after the Liturgy is the most powerful prayer we should all use.
Ew, AI voice
NOT RIGHT! Nobody in this world is able to neutrilise or ignore the blasphemous thoughts. If you have these thoughts this means you are chosen. If you have these thoughts these are very good for you indeed because you are able to learn the depths of satan. You are learning plenty things durings this. The purpose is to not make these words enflesh, TO NOT PRONOUNCE THEM!
So what to do when you have such words? ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS TO DOUBLE UP YOURSELF. AS THOUGH IT WASN'T YOU. IN REALITY ALL BEINGS ARE DOUBLED ALSO. JESUS WHEN HE WAS IN TEMPTATION AND IT IS WRITTEN SATAN TEPMTED HIM INTO THE DESERT - HIMSELF HAD SUCH THOUGHTS. HE WAS CHECKED THREE TIMES AND WHEN HE OVERCAME HIS OWN THOUGHTS HE WAS FINDING THE SNAKES NEARBY, BESIDES HIM - ALL THREE TIMES. AND THAT WAS THE WAY HE UNDERSTOOD WHY FATHER TOOK HIM TO DESERT TO TRY HIM - HE GOT CLEANSED THIS WAY. THE VERY WORDS TO PRONOUNCE DURING THIS TIME ARE: " GET OFF SATAN"! TELL IT TO YOURSELF AND NEVER BE DOUBTFULL YOU ARE TELLING THIS TO SATAN WHICH IS EMBODIED INTO YOU THIS TIME! I SWEAR WHEN JESUS OVERCAME THOSE THREE TEMTATIONS NEVER EVER ANY SATANIC THOUGHT CAME TO HIM. ONLY AFTER THIS HE WAS RIGHTFUL TO SERVE THE FATHER!
So you're saying Saint Paisos is wrong? And you also speak on the behalf of every single person? Wow you seem so right, you must be a Saint.
@@JHGSP Firsly i'm not saying he was wrong. If you read out i said "not right" what you preach unto the people having these thoughts - preaching wasn't right not him himself! Secondly, if i'm such persuaded in myself trust me i know what i am saying even if it takes to speak instead of others and if you don't trust me it is up to your belief and you have the very right to that! Lastly let me get to know with you, although i do not claim to be saint and not giving nothing for that, but anyway, you are speaking to THE SPIRIT OF HIS HOLINESS HIS HOLINESS THE SPIRIT! 😏
I am guessing your protestant lol ahah
@@David_Chkhaidze Are you alright?
@@DunsQuintus-sb7zo Yes i aM alRight NOOOOOOOOOOO :))))))
