A few years ago, a deliverance minister who also was addressed as an apostle by a pastor, told me that he could see clouds of confusion coming from my stomach. He told me he could see arrows inside my body and could see webs around me. He told me that I had difficulty concentrating because I had self hate and self condemnation. What he said about difficulty concentrating was true as well as having self hate issues.
Today, I still suffer from ocd but I have to be honest. I did not put 100 percent in reaching out to god and believing in his word about my identity in christ. My question is if what the apostle said was truly from God, if I eliminate self hate and self condemnation by believing in Jesus Christ as savior and believing in what God says about my identity, is it a guarantee that my ocd and anxiety problems will be cured completely without me ever having to take any medication like Zoloft or see a therapist?
Cause if my ocd is caused by my self hate, will removing the cause mean that the spirit of confusion will leave me and I can be free from bondage? I really want to be set free because it is causing me a lot of mental discomfort. I also suffered from a milder form of ocd when I was very young and I didn't hate myself then. Does that mean that perhaps the demons made it worst? Thanks.

lifter. Jesus can and will set you free. He is the healer of the body soul and spirit and wants to set you free from all this confusion, self hatred and ocd. Sometimes we need to just ask Him and other times we need to renounce things and forgive people in order to be set free. God is a good God and loves you. Regardless if in the past you did not put forth 100% Today is today and He still wants to set you free.
In order to find out why this symptom is there you need to go back to the point it started. When did the ocd start and when did the self hatred start? is there any unforgivenss in those areas?

Thanks for your response. I have hated myself for a long period of time. Mostly, I just wished that I was more competent in a worldly sense. I know now that God's word tells me that I am complete in christ and that I am his child, so therefore, I am significant in his eyes. It's just up for me to believe in his word and not just take his words as head knowledge.
I must admit that it is very hard to accept because it just feels to me that if I had a more perfect life, I would be a lot happier. I know I still have a lot of homework left to do and that I can't expect God to do everything for me. I must do my part in trying my best to communicate to him on a daily basis. It's hard because a lot of times I can't feel him at all. But I know the bible says that without faith, it is impossible to please God. I suffer from very bad anxiety issues and worry too much. I used to take Zoloft and Prozac to treat ocd but I didn't feel it had any significant help to me. I have a very hard time knowing whether or not something I worry about is appropriate or an inappropriate worry that is not true.
I believe I know that to get set free, I must truly believe that God loves me and thinks highly of me. I have a very hard time believing what God says about me.
