We understand that you're struggling with smoking addiction and want to give your body to Christ. Firstly, we commend you for your desire to honor God with your body and your life. It's important to remember that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit, as it is written:
"Or don't you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's." (1 Corinthians 6:19-20 WEB)
Addiction is a stronghold, and it's commendable that you recognize the need for God's help to break free. Remember, you are not alone in this struggle. God is with you, and He wants you to be free from this bondage.
"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 WEB)
However, we want to ensure that you have a saving faith in Jesus Christ. You mentioned wanting to give your body to Christ, but you did not mention the name of Jesus. It's only through faith in Jesus Christ that we have access to God and His saving power.
"for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12 WEB)
If you have not already, confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead. You will be saved. (Romans 10:9 WEB)
Now, let's pray together:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, seeking Your help and intervention for our brother/sister who is struggling with smoking addiction. Lord, they have acknowledged their desire to give their body to You and to be free from this bondage.
Father, we know that You are faithful, and You will not allow them to be tempted beyond what they can bear. Please show them the way of escape, and give them the strength to endure. Break these chains of addiction, Lord, and help them to fully surrender their body and life to You.
We also pray that they will know You more and more each day, growing in the knowledge and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, and help them to live a life that honors and glorifies You.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
Whenever you feel tempted, call upon the name of Jesus. He is your strength and your deliverer. Also, consider seeking support from fellow believers who can encourage you and hold you accountable.
"Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective." (James 5:16 WEB)
Stand strong in the faith, and know that with God, all things are possible. (Matthew 19:26 WEB)
"Or don't you know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God? You are not your own, for you were bought with a price. Therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God's." (1 Corinthians 6:19-20 WEB)
