Prayed for happiness all I have is destruction

Apolagies to OP for late response, please look into Islam, forget the media stories and the hear say, just sincerely look up a copy of Quran in english and read it and ask yourself is this the word of God, just be sincere, God is all seeing and hearing you dont need to go to any place, just say a prayer like God if this is the truth then guide me to it.

In terms of protecting yourself, just play Surah Baqarah from youtube in the house and listen to it, this literally burns the Jinn and if you or any family membera have a reaction to listening to it then you need to step things up from there. Ready to advise if need arises just give me a shout.

There are things unseen that can harm us, but we are taught not to fear them and we have been given the tools to handle and overpower any afflications but the main ingredient is to believe and have conviction. I have studied budhism, christianity, judaism, Islam, hinduism and many other faiths and i looked at them objectively at a low point in life and just wanted to follow the truth of this world, so they key is just be sincere in your outlook. I always say if someone is sincere in the pursuit of truth, then he shall find it.

recognize you can't get to heaven by good works. Compared to God's work in the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross our works are filthy rags.

Know only that if you want to do the work of God it is this easy

John 6:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

There is no other name upon who to believe and get to heaven

Acts 4:12 Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

All other ways lead to hell. While other ways will look good on the outside but it doesn't change the inside or your standing before God. For we are all sinners and come short of the glory of God.
