about a year and a half ago my ex and I had broken up, during that seperation I had a casual sex encounter that I feared gave me HIV. My ex and i decided to get back together but i hadnt gotten tested yet and I was so nervous and upset and sad that I might not be able to be with my ex, that I prayed to God that if i had HIV and couldnt be with my ex that I would die. I realized how foolish this was and have sinced begged God for forgiveness for speaking foolish words to him and asking to die. I've repented several times from this, I'm afraid that I may be under a curse because of my hasty words. I've plead the blood of Jesus over any curses that may be on my life, i'm still nervous because my father died of a heart attack last year, I've been having chest pains and other symptoms and have been to the doctor and had many test but they cant find anything wtong with me. I don't want to die young I'm only 23. Does anyone have any advice?

God says no to plenty of our foolish requests, and my guess would be that he said no to this one. Your repenting of it should pretty much guarantee he won't honor it. Pleading the blood over curses is a very good idea. Most likely the enemy is just trying to scare you. Remember, God has not given us a spirit of fear. Resist the enemy when he attacks you with fear and sooner or later he will flee. God bless.

If you have prayed to God and asked for his forgiveness you are ok. Those pains are probably from all the stress building up. Stop worrying if God knows you are truely sorry he will forgive you!! I would still go get checked out about the HIV though. Better to be safe then sorry and once you find out that you dont have it it will be like a thousand pounds lifted off your shoulders.

Don't forget that God knows you completely and understands your foolishness. If you have asked God for forgiveness, He's already forgiven you! So, no...you are not under a curse but you do sound really paranoid. Relax in the knowledge you are free in Christ.
PS. Go get tested and don't keep putting it off.

Yeah, quit flipping out. God is not in the business of cursing people these days. Your symptoms are that of guilt and anxiety. Let it go. Get tested and be honest with people.
God has a great big capacity for forgiveness so if you asked him to forgive then it is done.

You are drowning in shame. Get tested bro...I had a scare like a few years back when I had an unprotected relationship with a girl who turned out to be married to a heroin addict.
No joke...I was really scared but I confided in my best friend and he went with me to get tested and it wasn't all that bad. The waiting is a pain in the *** but the longer you wait to go see the doc the longer it will take for you to find out.
I was clean BTW.
Also- Having sex with your girl (protected or not) would be very wrong on a moral/ethical level. I hope you know that...she will HATE you forever if you give her anything.

No you are not under a curse. Yes I have advice but you won't like it.
It is this:
Go see a qualified doctor.
Also, be mature and learn about other stuff than supernatural mumbo jumbo and superstitious fear.
I also agree that psychological counseling would be good for you. And I don't mean priests, you need someone qualified in counseling stress and neurosis.

No, you are not cursed. You are causing your own chest pain because of the anxiety you have about being cursed. Get tested, you'll feel 100% better. By the way, all that crap about uttering things that you can't take back is bull.

Your problem is mental. Stop blaming real life events on superstition. The quicker you understand that there is no curse or demon, the quicker you will heal from any pains. (Go get a full check up by a doc just in case though)

Nope, God wants to give you a future and a hope. You need to yield your life to him, and he will do a work.
He is not willing that anyone should perish.
2Pe 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us,[2] not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.
He wants you to have a good future.
Jer 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.
Jer 29:12 Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.
Jer 29:13 And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.
--------------------------
You can't work to heaven, Jesus died on the cross for you, it was a gift, you just need to accept it.
Eph 2:8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,
Eph 2:9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.
Eph 2:10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
----------------------------------
Now give Jesus the wheel and follow up. You need to die to yourself and live in him. ;)

Hon, God tells us to not be afraid. If you have him in your life there's no reason to worry or fret about death. If you're worried about you heart go see a doctor. But I'm guessing some of what you're feeling you're bringing upon yourself. The mind is what controls the body and if you've convinced yourself that you're ill that's probably why you don't feel good. Relax, don't worry, pray, and remember that your life is in His hands.
