Are You A Backslider Who's Sick Of Backsliding?
By: David Hopkins
Wed, Jun 22, 2005
If you're a backslider you need to know what causes you to backslide. If you don't, do you at least know how to get back right with God? But most importantly, how to prevent yourself from backsliding in the first place? If not, you'll discover the answers to those all important questions in this article.
Which Type Of Backslider Are You?
According to Jesus in one of His famous parables there are three ways a person can backslide. (Mark 4:3-20).
Seed that falls by the wayside, seed that falls on stony ground, and seed that falls among thorns.
Seed that falls by the wayside is the word of God that you get but don't understand. The devil comes immediately causing you to forget. Then you go back to what you're used to doing and you backslide.
Seed that falls on stony ground is the word of God that you get and understand but it's not rooted inside you. So when the devil comes with hard times you can't handle it. This offends you, so you get mad and backslide.
Seed that falls among thorns is the word of God mixed in with the cares of this world, pursuit of riches, and other lusts. This chokes the word before it can produce and you go back to doing what the world does, give up and backslide.
How To Turn Back From Backsliding
A backslider is a Christian who withdraws him or herself away from devotion to God and His word to go back under the control of a self-pleasing spirit.
"The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways..." (Proverbs 14:14).
This occurs when fear somehow replaces the faith you have in God. It then causes you to run away from the spirit of God back into the sinful world of the flesh to satisfy your doubt and unbelief.
This means you must be careful not to mix yourself up with former sins and addictions like you did in the past. But if you do there will come a time when you regret it. Your soul will long to be back depending on the Lord your God for direction and guidance. You may even be experiencing these feelings right now as you're reading this article. But don't worry.
God said, "Return, ye backsliding children, and I will heal your backslidings..." (Jeremiah 3:22).
So how do you return to God? "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord." (Acts 3:19). Therefore repent, get back into the word, and let God blot out your sins. It's that simple. Just pray and ask God to forgive you and clean you up.
What Backslider Prevention Technique?
Right before telling another one of His famous parables Jesus said, "That men ought always to pray, and not to faint." (Luke 18:1)
The keyword in that sentence is the word faint. This is just another way of saying backslide. Jesus is talking about "praying without ceasing" or stopping. (1 Thessalonians 5:17). You should do this instead of giving up and backsliding.
The parable goes on to explain how a wicked judge who had no regard for God avenged a widow even though he could care less whether justice was done for her or not. Yet He avenged her because she showed initiative, was persistent, didn't give up and kept asking him. Because of this he said in his heart "Yet because this widow troubleth me, I will avenge her, lest by her continual coming she weary me."
The point of the parable is if a wicked judge avenges a widow simply on the basis of her continual asking, "shall not God avenge his own elect, which cry day and night unto him, though he bear long with them?" The answer of course is an astounding YES! So don't forget to keep praying to God without giving up until He gives you whatever you ask Him to do for you.
For example: if the devil steals some word from you, or if hard times come, or even if you love money and sex a little bit too much you can keep praying to God to deliver you from whatever it is that causes you to backslide. Don't be afraid because eventually He will heal you of your backsliding and you will be free. So don't ever give up on praying to God no matter how you feel or how bad your situation looks.
In conclusion, it is also extremely important that you continue to pray after God has forgiven you, and cleanses you and when you are in good standings with Him. Because Jesus said, "Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." (Matthew 26:41).

This morning, after recommiting my life to the lord, i
did a search on backsliding. shortly after i came
across your page. i just wanted to thank you for
helping me to understand what's happening a little
better. i have been backslidden for over a decade now,
and i so long to return to god. i am struggling with
the doubts (as usual) that god will take me back. your
article was almost like god was speaking to me
personally.

Thank you for this. it's funny that you posted this
today. like corrina, i just googled backsliding and i
was about to give up with no answer but i made one more
look... i have been saved for over 2 years and already
backslidden once, it was horrible. i felt myself
withdrawing from him again but have no one to go to. my
church home is broken. but i can pray. i haven't been
praying for about a week now. anyway, thank you.

I think if you are someone like me, reading this
article on backsliding because you believe that you
have turned away from the lord yet again and may not be
worthy of forgiveness, than you can be comforted in the
fact in your heart you realize that you have turned
away from him but that his forgiveness is infinitely
larger than our capacity to stray! praise be to god who
loves us beyond understanding.

Jay, just hang in there! as you have read above we are
all sailing in the same boat. god is a forgiving god
and he alone will reunite you with his holy spirit. in
my trial i have felt seperated as yourself. on the
otherhand little by little through obedience god is
allowing me to feel his presence once again. i'm sure
he's there for you as well. study his word and ask for
his understanding and he'll show up! may god bless you!

Recently i fell into the sin of adultery. i have been
married going on 9 years, i left my church just this
week where i was ordained. i feel like such a hypocrit,
what kind of reverend am i. i know god is married to a
backslider and is forgiving, i just can't forgive
myself. after i committed the sin of adultery, i found
myself drinking, and now i listen to secular music
again. i don't know how i allowed myself to get here.
pray for me please

Dear queana,
first and foremost, there is none perfect, but the
father. when the woman at the well confessed her sins
to jesus he forgave her and told her to sin no
more...the men who wanted to condemn her, jesus stated
to them "he who is without sin be the first to cast the
stone." god is a merciful god and he is a forgiving
god!

For jay and everyone!!
passage romans 8:31-40:
nothing can separate us from god’s love
31 what shall we say about such wonderful things as
these? if god is for us, who can ever be against us? 32
since he did not spare even his own son but gave him up
for us all, won’t he also give us everything else? 33
who dares accuse us whom god has chosen for his own? no
one—for god himself has given us right standing with
himself.

I've been separated from my wife for almost 2yrs now.
during this time i started talking to a woman on
facebook, long story short i slept with her and now she
says she is pregnant with twins of mine. i've been
sober since then (7 days as of today) and have asked
forgiveness to god. i just get so overwhelmed and don't
know what to do. i'm scared to tell my wife this
because i'm afraid it'll deal the final blow to my
marriage. i don't love this woman that is pregnant.

forgiveness.

I've been backslidden for 25 years now, last month my
lovely wife died at age 40. i left the house for only a
moment to get food came back, she was gone. she was
actively searching for the lord but don't know if she
got saved. i'm broken hearted, filled with guilt. i’m
not sure what to live for now but i’ve asked jesus to
forgive me. i’m not sure if he’s tired of me running to
him only when in trouble. please pray for me, ask the
lord to have mercy on my wife. thanks.

Queana, i think i originally backslid because of guilt
(i was having sex out of wedlock) instead of just
asking for forgiveness and going back to the lord, i
just started to get worse doing more sin, having more
guilt, forgetting jesus. now after my situation, i have
a lot of doubt but hopefully he hasn’t forgotten me. i
pray that you ask for forgiveness and he saves you from
your sin.

I stopped going to church about 3-4 years ago. i
really miss it. the main reason why i stopped going
was because i felt the lord was convicting me to make
restitution in something i was involved with many years
ago. i'm worried if i try to make things right, i will
end up in prison. i've already been to prison once,
and i really don't want to go back. i have already
made alot of restitution, and i got fed up with it, so
i stopped everything.

it and by doggone it, i looked at the date and, it was

and i've anguished over "will god take me back?" for a
very long time, now. i'm reminded of the prodigal son.
backsliding leaves a rawness that is hard to recover
from.

The devil made a mess of my life but god is merciful i

me believing i had to honour my mother i would never
support my boyfriend n he feels i let him down and has

to have a single parent family like me and her father.i

Can i ask one question though? what do you do when some
of your friends do not know jesus, nor do they want to,
and your best friend is gay? do you keep loving on them
and showing them god is the way, or do you move on and
surround yourself with supporters who have the same
beliefs as you...?
thank you.

Emily, in answer to your ? about your friends...the
scripture says "bad companions corrupt good manners."
i know it is hard to find friends that share the same
values but one must love the lord more than friends and
pleasures of this world.
god bless !

The lord loves us and he will never let us go. the lord
jesus says that he has not lost one that the father has
given him. i have saved for 10 yrs and was recently
tempted to backslide. i moved away from my family and
support network to take a job in a new state and i
became very vulnerable. i prayed to the lord to keep me
and he did!we have an advocate in jesus christ who is
seated at the right hand of the father who prays for us
because as we are tempted he was likewise tempted.

Joan,
perhaps you weren't saved to begin with. salvation is
in christ, not in us. if we could earn it, we wouldn't
need a savior. "if we confess our sins, he is faithful
to forgive us." paul wrote in the book of romans that
a war was going on within us and the good we want to do
we don't do; however 'there in now no condemnation for
those who are in christ.' i sincerely hope you put
your trust in his finished work and not your own.

Greetings you all. i have been child of lord jesus from
a very young age. but, from a very young age i started
backsliding. in high school i became interrested in the
things of the devil through heavy metal music. after
school, for a few years i could not even pray. 11 years
ago i returned to the lord. the past 11 years i had the
habit of backsliding severely and returning to the
lord. anyway, this is the first place i find fellow
backsliders like me. may all of us become steadfast in
the lord.

Hey justin,
just letting you know you’re not alone in your
struggles and backsliding. it’s certainly not easy.
struggling with sin, backsliding and to top it
off…god’s words…and possibly finding them
threatening…is much to handle at times. let’s pray for
god’s never ending mercy, forgiveness, patients and
compassion. we are all very very broken.
and if satan is telling you something…then you know
not to listen…it can only end in lies.
be well justin…hang in there.

always fails..just look at the previous posts. freedom
comes in knowing that you are secure in christ and that

I understand we are saved by grace through faith. i am
just saying that if we fall into habitual sin does that
mean we are truly saved?
if we are saved we should still try to be a better
person. i know we cannot go to god on the day of
judgement and say, "look what i beat or look at the
things i have corrected."
didn't jesus say in king james bible
"be ye therefore perfect, even as your father which is
in heaven is perfect."

Focus on the 'works' that christ did, not on what you
must do. the early christians were mainly jews that
had synagogues in every city and they could not
overcome the 'works' issue and tried to include
circumcision and other things, just like most of you
here. that is what is meant by 'examining yourself to
see if you are in christ.' faith in christ plus no
works will deliver a person from the curse of sin and
death.

im in a relationship with a guy who is a new believer
and we fornicate. i feel like im dieing inside and i
dont like what i am becoming. of course it is hard to
leave because i love him. just need a support group
with people my age who understand the struggle and
loneliness that often comes with having to choose gods
way even when it means you may have to let go of
someone you love.pray 4 gods enablement a strong
conviction in both of our hearts. thanks

Lakisha,
i will pray for you. i am not a saint either. i
repent but i still make some of the same mistakes.
perhaps you need to explain to him how you feel. if
he is a new believer than he should feel the same way
and should feel convicted too i believe. perhaps if
you say something to him it might remind him.

I have told him. he also gets drunk alot and goes to
bars and clubs. im not judging him but thats something
that i know that i persoanlly cant deal with in a long

doing every time he goes out with friends drinking at a
bar is too much for me to handle. especially since he
puts himself in shady situations.

By walking in faith and obedience, we may count on the
holy spirit to do a divine and most blessed work in us.
if we live by the spirit, let us also walk in the
spirit. this is the obedience that god requires. by
faith in the holy spirit who is in us, we have
sufficient strength to walk by the spirit and yield
ourselves to his mighty power. then, he can work in us

I'm struggling because even though i've been a
backslider for many years i thought jesus would always
“look out for me”. jesus allowed my wife to die at only
age 40. i took her to a doctor and he misdiagnosed her,
i found her dead 8 hours later, did cpr on her, begging
the lord for one heartbeat, he wouldn’t do it. she had
a brain aneurism. she was seeking jesus and reading a
lot of christian literature, but don't know if she got
saved. i’m mad at the lord now.

Pete,
you need to make the best of this situation you can.
only god and your wife know.
somethings we have no control over. i believe in the
bible it speak of family and friends being saved and
other relatives don't. pray to god to bring peace to
your heart about this. your wife was searching perhaps
she was saved and didn't know how to confront you about
your salvation.

I feel a little guilty for asking this question when so
many on here are struggling with really terrible
situations…but i have a question to pose to anyone out
there that i have been struggling with. can anyone
really explain to me romans 9:18-23? what does this
really mean for us that struggle so much? should we be
afraid of god? and how can we be sure where we fit in
to that bible verse? i think it’s an important question
and one that most churches won’t address.
thanks

Bill, you shouldn't feel guilty about asking a legit
question. i'm no expert but i do know that one must
always ask 'who, what, when, where,' before arriving at
a conclusion. verses and chapters were not the
original purpose. heck the entire nt wasn't even
around then. all they had was moses and the prophets
or law/prophets. so the bereans examined the
scriptures daily to see if the things paul taught were
true.

the jews(as referring to the israelites) and not only
the tribe of judah, which is the origin of 'jew.' had
been scattered all over the world at that time and had
temples in every city. they still adhered to the old

god. paul was trying to tell them they couldn't earn
salvation that it was totally dependent on god
sacrificing his son and faith in that finished work.

Thank you judith for taking the time to answer and for
your kind words. i’m not sure if you understood my
question but basically in romans chapter 9 verses 18 to
23 it speaks about god deciding to make some for
salvation and some for destruction? it’s a really tough
section…and a frightening one. i really wish paul
didn’t make these statements…it makes one doubt if god
truly loves each and every individual. and if he
doesn’t…how can one ever be sure of that love?

come creeping back. salvation is in him, not me....

have to put my helmet back on when i read it. thanks

Hello everyone...
this is certainly a great site for christians who
struggle. i usually find myself hiding my struggles
when at church...but here i think we all can be a
little more open with one another. i think this site
can be an avenue to support one another...anyone agree?
god bless...

You are right. i have read a lot of things in this web
site that has helped me. i am still having a hard
time, but still trying to keep my faith in the lord.
i'm not where i want to be with the lord, but hope this
will pass. i got the joy of the lord back at one time
after being backslid for fifteen years. looking for
that joy and strength again.

God put the perfect book in my path several months
before i returned to god, and this book was the big
stepping stone that helped me: when godly peoploe do
ungodly things - by beth moore. people sometimes leave
god because of buried pain and she has immense sympathy
for those people. backsliders need this book
desperately.

Can i just say that i struggled with hebrews and asked
my dad about it. he made it very clear to me that god
is specifically talking to the jews in hebrews who were
going back to the old law that jesus had told us doesnt
count. hebrews was saying that if the jews feel the law
is more important than faith in jesus they are
effectively crusifying jesus all over again and this
cannot be forgiven. effectively it's blasphemy. once we
are saved we are saved, but we dont want to be at the
back of the line in heaven with our heads hung low. we
want to walk in bodly! :)

Dear zoe,
i served the lord for years and i don't know what
happen. i try to pray and get back to him and nothing
works. just in bondage again. when i try to get back
to him i just feel worse. just can't find his peace
anymore. i can't explain how awful this is. i want to
be back with the lord, but it seems like he won't take
me back. please pray for me. thanks and god bless you

Terry. it's easy to tell ourselves that we are not
worthy of god's forgiveness or love. this however is
what satan tells us, and not what god tells us. god
says 'i will never leave you or forsake you'. if we
didn't sin and disappoint god there would have been no
reason for jesus to have died for us. jesus talks about
bringing back the lost sheep. he rejoices when someone
who has strayed returns to them. don't doubt that jesus
loves you! get rid of your doubt and surround yourself
with god's word, with prayer, with christian music,
with christian people and trust that god has a plan for
you. it's your doubt that is getting in the way.
rejoice in that you belong to god!!! you do!! as long
as you have accepted that jesus died for you and asked
him in your life you are saved because you believe.
thats amazing!! now all u need to do is get your shoes
on and walk for christ! don't stop praying! get rid of
your guilt and your doubt and know that you are his.

Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall
find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
jesus doesnt expect you to do it on your own!! he
understands, and he still loves you but you need to
trust him, thank him and pray pray pray. surround
yourself with his word, music, videos. change what your
spirit is feeding on!! and god will give you strength
to over come any sin, it's only hard now because all
youre feeding on is earthly stuff, and avoiding god!
you have to do the opposite. if you struggle or mess
up, pray. dont feel like you can't pray you must!
remember the parable of the lost son in luke:15. the
father celebrated when his rebelious son returned to
him. don't let satan tell u anything different.

I have been under demonic oppression for 4 and a half
years now. i can see the enemy in my mind's eye. last
month i woke up with rage all over me - wanting to kill
my daughter. i admitted myself into the hospital and
was there 2 weeks. now i'm on all kinds of meds. i've
also lost my job. i have had hate in my heart for my
daughter and husband due to her autism, and both of
their
resistance to me in doing what's right. i am in a
stronghold! the enemy steals the word from me at night
while i'm sleeping. i want to and need to come back to
the lord but i do not have any conviction/remorse about
this.
i am just extremely tired of the fight and so close to
turning completely away from the lord to the devil.
please pray for me.

and also been in hospitals and on medication. i live
in fear everyday so i don't have the answer. sorry

Bill and terry,
i found a website that may help you:
http://www.worldinvisible.com/library/nee/sprtmnv3/part
9chapter4.htm - anything by watchman nee is deep.
i also found another website with many articles to
help you in your walk:
http://www.greatbiblestudy.com/love_relationship.php
it is good to know how the enemy works and be on
guard, however i'm noticing that i need to turn my
attention away from him and put it on christ and his
love for me.
i prayed for you both: that the annointing of the holy
spirit will break every yoke of bondage you are under
bringing about freedom in your mind, will and emotions.
jesus went through longsuffering and he is walking
beside you in all of this. just know he loves you and
will never let you go. a suggestion from a minister
friend of mine: read the psalms slowly looking at it
through the eyes of love and grace towards you and let
jesus love on you.

i found another excellent website for you to look
into:
http://www.bible-knowledge.com/bible-articles/
number 5 and number 6 are excellent.
call a local spirit filled church (assembly of god,
non-denominational, etc) and ask if they know of any
deliverance ministries in your area. sometimes you
cannot fight this on your own and need outside help.
those ministries do not charge anything to help you.
let me know what you find out, okay?
jesus loves us and wants us free. we will get free of
these demons! praying for you- liz

Dear liz,
i will look up the websites. don't know any
deliverance ministers, but can ask around and see if i
can find one. i feel condemnation over something i
done. i loaned a dvd to a brother and he wouldn't give
it back and i ask him for it back and he said he didn't
know where it was. i got mad and sent the people he
works for a letter accusing him of being a thief. i
knew i done wrong and tried to get the letter back
before it got to their address, but post office said i
couldn't because it didn't have a return address.
haven't felt the lord since then three years ago.
thenks,

Terry,
yours is a simple issue. try to apologize to the
people at his place of employment and also try and
apologize to the person you got mad at. once you have
done all you can do to humble yourself and do the right
thing, (even if they do not/or cannot accept your
apology, then forgive yourself
and receive god's forgiveness. thant's it. you will be
free.
three years is three years too long to be under
condemnation. jesus wants you free and the devil has
succeeded in keeping you in bondage. accept god's
forgiveness and don't look back.
blessings,

Right, the problem you all have is that you are telling
yourselves you are not worthy of belonging to jesus.
you are not sinners. you are already the riteousness of
christ jesus. god has already paid the price for your
sins through jesus. as for feeling bitterness and anger
and rage and mental health issues. satan is attacking
you when you are weak. where is your faith?! rebuke
your illnesses, depression, anger and doubt in the name
of jesus, repent of your doubt and anger and do not
stop reading your bibles. expect attack from satan,
because it's when youre not being attacked you should
be worried. satan attacks those who he fears are strong
in the lord!! don't hold back from guilt thats the
worst thing you can do. jesus loves you!! reach out to
him!!! god bless you :)x

I have severe depression, and in agony almost to the
point of losing my sanity over my failures. i just cant
seem to accept god's love because i can't love myself.
i am backslidden and sometimes i wonder if i was ever
saved. i feel like i wasn't meant to survive and my
backsliding only strengthens that. i'm tired of crying
over sin only to fall back into it. please pray for
me...signed, at the end of my rope.

Dear christopher,
her is what got me back to the lord one time. repent
again and find a church in your area that baptizes in
the name of jesus christ instead of the titles of
father, son and holy ghoist and get rebaptized in the
name of jesus christ according to acts 2:38. jesus gave
peter the keys to the kingdom and acts 2:38 is what god
said through peter to do to receive salvation. type in
william branham at youtube.com and watch as many videos
you can.

get this book: victory in spiritual warfare by tony
evans.
i have suffered from depression and thought i was
going to lose my mind. this book is so sound and will
bring peace to your soul. all the father asks is that
you believe jesus - not religion. jesus himself is the
way.

Hi christopher,
i’m a perpetual backslider myself…so i understand to
some extent your struggle. but hang in there chris.
remember how gentle jesus dealt with the sinners…but
harsh with the “religious” of the day. it may not feel
like it…but jesus loves you…and desires to be gentle
with you too. we usually give up on ourselves long
before god ever gives up on us. and don’t underestimate
the psychological games satan will play with your mind.
i have followed liz’s reading recommendation in the
past…and it’s been very helpful. i would recommend
reading what she suggests. god bless you christopher…i
pray god to strengthen you…and help you to see his love
and passion for you.

harsh with the “religious” of the day. it may not feel
like it…but jesus loves you…and desires to be gentle
with you too. we usually give up on ourselves long
before god ever gives up on us. and don’t underestimate
the psychological games satan will play with your mind.
i have followed liz’s reading recommendation in the
past…and it’s been very helpful. i would recommend
reading what she suggests. god bless you christopher…i
pray god to strengthen you…and help you to see his love
and passion for you.

Awsome! i'm growing each day! i'm learning every day
and learning so much about gods mercy. the most
important thing is being sure that god loves us. and
applying love in everything we do. i'm trying to read
my bible every day and not just read it but study it
with other books now. fun christian books remind me
gods got a sense of humour. christian tapes and radio
when i'm feeling weak. i really have found god speaks
to me on there when i'm falling away from my bible. its
a constant battle but its the best battle in the world!
satan get behind me in the name of jesus. i got my war
boots on. you won't win cos you've already been
defeated by the blood of jesus. this is the attitude we
must all have. every day is a new day. don't let satan
tell you different. satan doesn't want you to think
you're on a journey he wants you to think you've fallen
are stuck are not worthy. you already have authority
over all things. realise it. god bless guys. i'm still
trecking x

Thank you for caring bill. its one day at a time. god
is soooooooooooooooo good!i am blessed! i thank god
that he is who he is! we are so fortunate to have the
love of god!! just a friendly reminder: stewardship is
a key of growth. the more we concentrate on the needs
of others, the closer we get to god.

Bill,
i have been struggling with anxiety since sunday.i am
still trying to nail it down. i found a great book by
joyce meyer titled "straight talk". it appears to have
the answer i'm looking for. the book is help and
encouragement to combat depression, discouragement,
fear, insecurity, loneliness, stress and worry. i am
diving in to it now.
