Why a Christian Should NOT Smoke
Spiritual truths on why you should quit NOW!
________________________________________
We are responsible to God for the care of our body. When a person truly receives Jesus Christ as Savior, the Holy Spirit of God enters the human spirit making a new creature.
1 Corinthians 6:19 states that the body of the Believer is a Temple, a tabernacle or dwelling, abiding place of the very Holy Spirit of God. Our willing covenant or contract with God to receive eternal life through Jesus Christ puts us in a place of responsibility. As genuine Christians we are held responsible by God for the care and use of our physical body. 1 Corinthians 6:19 states: "What? Know you not that your body is the Temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which you have of God, and you are not your own?"
We can further see in 1 Corinthians 3:17 that when we behave or perform irresponsibly and defile our body, we open ourselves to our physical destruction.
"If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple you are."
The scriptural DELIVERANCE process of applying the power and authority given by Jesus Christ to the Believer (Luke 10:19) must be implemented. It is wise for the needy Believer to search out fellow Believer DELIVERANCE prayer warriors at a fellowship where biblical DELIVERANCE is actively administered to the saints. Acknowledging tobacco, cigarettes and smoking as sin is prerequisite.
Confession of the sin according to I John 1:9, and choosing to submit to God according to James 4:7, places the Believer on proper ground for the unclean spirits to be cast out.
FOR DELIVERANCE:
Confess and repent to God for burning incense to other gods. Then command the demons to go in Jesus' Name.
DEMONS TO CAST OUT:
spirit of self-destruction, slow-suicide, heart and blood diseases, demons in the eyes, nasal passages, respiratory system, emphysema and asthma, tobacco, nicotine, break down of immune system, cancer, lung cancer, throat cancer and lip cancer, addiction to nicotine, rebellion, destroying the temple of God, undue colds, flu, nervous disorders and hindrances to mind function, asthma, Hypertension, Depression, dull mental awareness, alertness and function, sting of death, mind control, etc.
May these spirits be cast away from u in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
May God give u all the strength.
