I'm trying to stay sober

[chrisw]

My name is Chris. My prayer request is that God would heal my mind and my body and that He would use me in a mighty way for Him. I am an alcoholic and have 20 hrs. of sobriety. I just got out of the hospital from withdrwals I was having. I need help. I almost had 1 yr clean and sober in october 08 and relapsed. I was in rehab for 9 months of that sobriety time but when i got out i only stayed sober for about a month. I've completed aprx.5 long term programs in the past. So i guess what i'm trying to say is that i really need to be healed and have the desire to drink removed and be who God designed me to be.

Oh Father,

Please hear and answer Chris's cry for help. Help him to seek You, to be guided by You to find deliverance in You from this destructive habit. Father give him eyes to see the spiritual realm and to understand that every temptation is straight from the enemy who wants to sideline him and make him useless for Your kingdom. But You oh Father want to deliver him once and for all and help him to be a source of wisdom and encouragement for others in bondage to to the same god. Enable Chris, help him to fill his mind with Your promises and to believe them, and to seek all that he needs, in Your Word, and to memorize it and meditate on it, and to find the strength to honor the body You created which houses Your Holy Spirit if he is a child of God. May he be so filled with Your Spirit and hearing Your voice, that the call of the alcohol loses all power over him, that he actually no longer hears it or pays heed to its calling because he has found something much more SATISFYING! In Jesus' Name, I ask this, Amen.

Chris - DON'T GIVE UP! STAND!!!! BELIEVE AND HE WILL HELP YOU.

Lord Jesus, so merciful and full of grace, I stand with Christ at the foot of the cross. He is laying down the alcohol at your feet. He asks for deliverance from it's addictive claws.

Lord, I ask that you heal his body from this desease, that you remove all desire to have it in his system. He can't do it alone. Send him the support help he needs to stay sober. Give him wisdom to see how it has affected his life, his family, his friends and his relationships. Help him to say NO! and move on. Lead and guide him to the programs that will help him stay sober, to friends who will be there for him to lean on. Give him an extra dose of strength, Lord. He will need it. Help him to put on armor to resist the enemy when he attacks with the desire to drink again. Don't let him fail, Lord. Let him find victory this time. Draw him close to you. I pray for healing in his mind, body and spirit. Put a hedge of protection around him and guard him from the forces of darkness. I come up against them and bind them. I command them to turn away from Chris. He belongs to Jesus. I cast them away to the bottom of the ocean. Let Chris walk in peace with no fear. Let him lift up his head and say "I can do it!" I thank you and praise you for what you will do in his life. Thank you, Jesus, for your help and intervention. Amen
