Does God tell people when they are going to die? Idk if it’s my own thoughts the anxiety or depression. But I could of sworn I heard or thought popped up. About getting affairs in order...
I do not think that God told you were going to die, and get your affairs in order, but you are worried about it so it came up.
It is like someone that thinks they blasphemed against the Spirit, but that is only because they are worried about it not wanting to do it.
For if you blaspheme against the Spirit you do not think did you do it, for you will know you did it for you will say it, or think it, without doubt, such as the Pharisees when they said Jesus cast out devils by Beelzebub, for they said it without doubting what they said.
Loss of interest, question, wonder.
Some people get so worried not to think something that it pops up, and it if causes stress can make it worse, and then if they try to understand it, it makes it worse for they cannot understand it, and adds more stress.
And if a person is stressed they can start thinking negative, and things they would not want to ever think about might pop up, but it is not because they want it, or that it is actually coming from God, or the devil, but they are worried about it.
It pops up because they do not want it, and does not even mean it is against them, but only about the subject that they do not want to think about.
It is like a person that does not want to think elephant, and wants nothing to do with that word ever coming up, or a mental picture of it, for they think it is bad, they will beat their head up trying to avoid it, but it will come up, and they are thinking am I thinking it, and it will come up, and then it will cause stress as they try to avoid it which makes thoughts more intense, and the mind not relaxed, which adds to the problem making it worse, for the word will seem more offensive, and troublesome, because of the stress of their mind.
Try not ever saying elephant ever again in your mind, or a picture of it, and you cannot do it, for it will pop up because you are trying to avoid it that much.
That is why God said overcome evil with good. Do good, and do not worry about the evil for you do not want it, and if it pops up you do not want it, and of course a subject can come up but that does not mean it is meant for you.
I would not want to rob a bank, but if a thought about robbing a bank came up I would not think I want to rob a bank, but it is a subject that happens in society, but if I was that worried about the subject coming up to where it caused me stress I might think I want to rob a bank for the mind set is not relaxed, and worrisome.
I do not think God said you are going to die, and get your affairs in order, but that you are worried about it, and is something that you would not want to come up.
Also Jesus said blessed is he that has not seen Him but still believes, so would God actually talk to us, or would that violate the faith we are supposed to have, for faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen, and would that also include not hearing a voice from God that would prove He does exist the same as seeing Jesus which He said blessed is he that has not seen Him but still believes.
The disciples and Paul did not need faith, for they were witnesses to the resurrection of Christ, which Jesus met Saul on the road to Damascus, so God could talk to them and not violate faith, and in the Old Testament talked to certain people.
I do not know and many people will say God talks to us, but do they only think that, and it could be you do not want the subject of you dying coming up, so you thought it that you were going to die, but it was only because you were worried about it, or maybe the subject came up because it is a subject that can come up.
It is like this one man that saw a cloud that he thought was in the shape of a goat, and then thought God was calling him a goat, as opposed to sheep following Jesus, which if you are going to worry that much about something it will probably pop up.
