Yes it is an attack on your mind. Basically it's a way for the enemy to make you paralyzed enough to keep you unusable in the Kingdom of God here on earth. He lies to you about all of those things he is telling you in your mind and eventually if you don't take a stand against it and use the authority God gave you through Jesus, you will believe it. You can put a stop to it. It's alot easier than you think. The mind is where all of our battles begin.There is a solution. Put on the full armor of God; the Word of God. Not just reading God's word, but speaking it. Out loud for you to hear. Hearing the word of God has to come before believing the Word of God. You have to keep up with it and not quit. So, the best thing to do if you need a little more direction is to get a topical bible, so that you can look up the topic of your problem. Or a topic that will encourage you. Focus on God's promises that He made to you in His Word. And focus on the power of Christ and how the enemy is already defeated but it takes action on your part. Renew you mind everyday with the word of God.

Yes satan will play tricks w/ you if you let him, the only way he can get to you is thru your thoughts, so find things to do, like reading the bible, shutting satan out. Read scripture out loud and call satan a liar. No weapon formed against you shall prosper and so on.... Give no place to the devil. An idle mind leaves room for satan to get in, busy yourself w/ positive things that are pleasing in God's eyes.Pray and bind those satanic spirits out our mind.

Could be the holy spirit guiding you in all truth, and could be the devil trying to deceive you, if you get scared might be satan, but do not be scared, only be strong and courageous and the Lord will step on his head for you! You need to get more in touch with the voice of the lord and then you will know the voice of the enemy. read your bible and if the voice says something that is not there than it is satan, God will only tell you his word!

I believe it can be satan. I am a christian also and trust me I get scared all the time. But God is on my side and I tell myself that he is bigger and more powerful then satan and all the other bad things out there are. So just keep believing and have faith and he will take care of you. God Bless!!!!

You may choose to talk to a christian councillor who has a gift for councelling people with fears. There may be a root of fear from some event that happened in your past.
It would be good to become aware of this root and deal with it properly before it grows into something bigger, limits your potential, causes you to make poor choices, and/or becomes a tool in Satan's hands.
Often, just being aware of the source of the fear makes it manageable, or makes it go away completely!

"For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to tear down STRONGHOLDS. We demolish ARGUMENTS and every PRETENSION (or Imagination) that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive EVERY THOUGHT to make it obedient to Christ" (II Corinthians 10:3-5)
"Submit yourself therefore unto God, resist the devil and he will flee from you."(James 4:7)
The Christian life is a battle, and the battlefield is the Mind. If you have accepted Christ and believe in the salvation that comes through faith in the sacrifice of Jesus Christ for your sins, you have been set free, but it has been said well that the price of freedom is eternal vigilance. "For the devil goes about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour, WHOM RESIST, steadfast in the faith... (see I Peter 5:8,9). YOU have to resist thedevil and take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ. This takes considerable effort early in the Christian life, but becomes more automatic as we mature in the faith. You must equip yourself with the Word of God - the Scriptures. Cultivate a discipline of reading the Bible, especially the New Testament, but work your way into the Old Testament - especially the Psalms, and Genesis to begin with. Jesus said "If you continue in My word, then are you My disciples indeed; and you shall know the Truth, and the TRUTH SHALL MAKE YOU FREE. (John 8:31,32).
Lastly, someone said: "You can't keep the birds from flying over your head, but you can keep them from making a nest in your hair!

Satan has come to buffet you,with his spirit of torment.I would get to a Holy Spirit filled church.One that anoints with oil and believes in the laying on of hands,fasting and praying.I am not trying to sale church to you but I see a lot of young Christians fall away because they lack the power of the Spirit in their life's.To be saved you need a relationship with Jesus,but to be Spiritual you need a relationship with the Holy Ghost.That is not taught in many churches today.Check out the Assembly of God Church in your area.You'll have nothing to lose and everything to gain.God Bless you,your in my prayers

It is my understanding that Satan was an angel of God. That being said, angels do not know the thoughts of our hearts. (1 Kings 8:39 or something).
The biggest weapon the devil has is doubt. Something simple, yet utterly effective. Point yourself toward Jesus (who even said not to worry about tomorrow because tomorrow with worry about itself) and all will fall into place.
Good luck.

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

Yes, Satan is messing with you. You are a christian, and therefore, Satan would delight in your fall. Do not let him! Christ is savior and has overcome death for you. He can do anything. When you have these head wars going on, just say to yourself or out loud " Satan I command you by the name of Jesus Christ to go away"
RECEIVE IT MY FRIEND!! Let Christ give you peace and rest! Claim it by his name and believe and you will receive!
