Beloved of All
Praying for this in Jesus Name. Amen.
We hear your cry for help and want you to know that your desire to quit and seek forgiveness is already a step in the right direction. Addiction is a heavy burden, but the Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit (Psalm 34:18). We stand with you in prayer, asking God to break every chain of bondage in your life and renew your mind according to His Word.
First, we must address the reality of what you’re struggling with. Marijuana use, while often minimized in society, is not aligned with God’s design for a clear and sober mind. The Bible warns us, *"Do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit"* (Ephesians 5:18). While this verse speaks directly to alcohol, the principle applies to any substance that alters your mind and dulls your spirit. The enemy seeks to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), and addiction is one of his tactics to keep you from walking in the freedom Christ died to give you.
We rebuke the torment in your mind in the name of Jesus. The enemy wants you to believe you’re powerless, but Scripture declares, *"No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it"* (1 Corinthians 10:13). You are not alone in this battle, and God has already provided a way out.
We also want to gently remind you that true freedom comes only through Jesus Christ. If you have not yet surrendered your life to Him, now is the time. The Bible says, *"If you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved"* (Romans 10:9). Salvation is the first step to breaking free from any addiction, as it is only through Christ that we have the power to overcome sin. If you have already accepted Jesus as your Savior, we encourage you to renew your commitment to Him daily and seek His strength in this battle.
Now, let us pray for you:
Heavenly Father, we come before You on behalf of our brother/sister who is struggling with addiction to marijuana and the torment it has brought to their mind. Lord, we ask that You would break every chain of bondage in their life. We rebuke the enemy’s lies that tell them they cannot quit, and we declare that greater is He who is in them than he who is in the world (1 John 4:4). Father, fill them with Your Holy Spirit and grant them a renewed mind, one that is fixed on You and Your Word.
Lord, we ask that You would give them the strength to resist temptation and the wisdom to seek godly accountability. Surround them with believers who will encourage and support them in their journey to freedom. We pray for healing in their mind, body, and spirit, and we ask that You would restore the joy of their salvation (Psalm 51:12). Help them to see themselves as You see them—a beloved child, redeemed by the blood of Jesus, and called to walk in victory.
We also pray for forgiveness, Lord. If there has been any sin in turning to marijuana instead of You, we ask that You would cleanse them and set them free. Your Word says that if we confess our sins, You are faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness (1 John 1:9). We thank You for Your mercy and grace, and we ask that You would empower them to walk in obedience to Your will.
In the mighty name of Jesus, we command every spirit of addiction and torment to leave and never return. We declare freedom, healing, and restoration over their life. May they experience the peace that surpasses all understanding (Philippians 4:7) and the joy of walking in the purpose You have for them. Amen.
We encourage you to take practical steps as well. Seek out a biblical counselor or a support group for addiction, such as Celebrate Recovery, where you can find accountability and encouragement. Replace the time you would spend using marijuana with prayer, reading Scripture, and fellowship with other believers. Memorize verses that speak to your freedom in Christ, such as Galatians 5:1, *"Stand firm therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and don’t be entangled again with a yoke of bondage."*
You are not defined by your addiction. You are a child of God, created for His glory, and He has a plan for your life (Jeremiah 29:11). Keep pressing into Him, and do not grow weary in doing good, for in due season you will reap if you do not faint (Galatians 6:9). We are standing with you in faith, believing that God is at work in your life even now.

We're here with you, friend, in this battle against marijuana addiction. It's a tough road, but remember, you're not alone. We've been where you are, and we've seen God's power break chains and set people free.
First, let's acknowledge the elephant in the room. Marijuana might seem harmless to some, but it's not what God intends for our minds and bodies. It's a tool the enemy uses to keep us from walking in the freedom Christ died to give us. But we serve a God who's bigger than any addiction!
We rebuke the torment in your mind, in Jesus' name. The enemy wants you to believe you're powerless, but God says, "No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it" (1 Corinthians 10:13). You're not alone, and there's a way out.
Now, let's talk about Jesus. True freedom comes only through Him. If you haven't surrendered your life to Him yet, now's the time. If you have, keep holding on to Him. He's your strength and your victory.
Let's pray:
Dear Heavenly Father, we come to You on behalf of our friend struggling with marijuana addiction and the torment it's causing. Lord, break every chain of bondage in their life. Rebuke the enemy's lies, and fill them with Your Holy Spirit. Give them a renewed mind, fixed on You and Your Word. Lord, give them strength to resist temptation and wisdom to seek godly accountability. Surround them with believers who'll encourage and support them. Heal their mind, body, and spirit, and restore the joy of their salvation. Help them see themselves as You see them - a beloved child, redeemed by Jesus' blood, called to walk in victory. Forgive them, Lord, and empower them to walk in obedience to Your will. In Jesus' mighty name, we command every spirit of addiction and torment to leave and never return. We declare freedom, healing, and restoration over their life. May they experience Your peace and walk in the purpose You have for them. Amen.
