Brothers and Sisters, Please pray for me Nicole and my boyfriend William to be freed from the chains of addiction that the enemy has kept us in bondage with for many years, but no more! Please pray for us to break free from this habit, and to no longer feel shame that causes us to isolate ourselves from the rest of the Body of Christ. Please pray for us to be effective witnesses of the gospel to our friends and peers of young adults. Please pray for us to be unashamed and unafraid to share the gospel of grace and win souls for the Kingdom of God. Pray for our faith to grow stronger everyday and to cultivate the fruits of the Holy Spirit in our lives. Please pray for us to operate in the gifts of the Holy Spirit, pray that we might be made useful in the Body of Christ. Thank you my brothers & sisters in Christ Jesus. Please pray for us, in Jesus' Holy Name above all Names!
Father, thank you that freedom comes to Nichole and William today, for today is the day of salvation, today is the day of new beginnings! Thank you that Jesus has defeated the devil and that any addiction that has kept these two in bondage has been defeated! in the name of Jesus I break the pull of addiction of drugs and alcohol, even food has keep these separated from the body of Christ. Every effect these addictions have had on these bodies, is crushed, and now they only desire what is right and good.
I am going to encourage you, your lifestyle, as in accordance to Corinthian church were immature, carnal believers. They were living as the world, not recognizing that God had given command to abstain from those things of the world that contaminates their walk. The gifts of the Spirit are given to the body of Christ, to immature believers, so that means you have those same gifts, it's walking in who you are in Christ. The enemy has separated you from the calling of God in your life and that is to proclaim the gospel and set people free. So, I encourage you to start telling the devil NO MORE. Renounce those things that have kept you from walking in the freedom that Christ died to give you. Renounce, reject, repent, and as you are forgiven, forgive those who have caused or brought offenses to you that has kept you in bondage.
Thank you Father, that your word is Spirit and life. i ask that the seed of love that has been sown in their hearts begin to abound yet more and more, that they would come to know YOU. I ask you give them the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Christ Jesus, that their eyes be flooded with light that they might know the hope to which they were called.
I encourage you to seek the Lord and ask Him to reveal who you are in Him.
In Jesus name. Amen.
