Heavenly Father, we come before you in the name of Jesus, interceding on behalf of all those who are struggling with narcotic addictions and other afflictions. We ask for your divine intervention and healing power to touch their lives, bringing complete recovery and restoration. Lord, we pray for their safety and security, that you would surround them with your loving protection and guide them away from any harmful influences. We also ask for real ethical justice to prevail, that those who contribute to the cycle of addiction would be held accountable and that the systems in place would work towards the well-being of all individuals. Father, we pray for their healthiness, both physically and mentally, that you would strengthen their bodies and minds, and grant them the strength to overcome their struggles. We ask for nice circumstances to be bestowed upon them, Lord, that they may find themselves in environments that support their recovery and provide them with the resources they need. May the truth of your love and grace be revealed to them, Lord, and may they experience your transforming power in their lives. We lift up this prayer in the name of Jesus, believing that you are able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think. Amen.
