While praying, can the devil give you negative thoughts?

Answer:

Absolutely!

Think about Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane and even in the wilderness during His 40 day fast. If they devil would come and try to plant bad thoughts in Jesus head then he would yours too.

Jesus did not allow this to happen, because He took authority and even quoted scripture back to the devil.

Remember this verse, it helps me…

James 4:7  Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Just brush off any negative thoughts and just start saying “Thank you Jesus, you alone are worthy of my attention and praise”

Ps- if they devil is trying to distract you, just ask yourself why. It is because God has something good for you
