We understand your struggle, Coscad, and we're here to lift you up in prayer and provide guidance from God's Word.
Firstly, we want to remind you that God is a very present help in times of trouble (Psalm 46:1, WEB). It's encouraging that you've reached out for divine intervention, and we trust that you will find help and healing in Jesus' name.
However, we want to gently rebuke the idea that alcohol can provide an escape. The Bible warns us not to get drunk with wine, which leads to recklessness, but to be filled with the Spirit (Ephesians 5:18, WEB). Drinking to escape problems only adds to them, but God offers a way out.
Let's pray together:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up Coscad. Lord, she has acknowledged her struggle with alcohol and we ask that You break this addiction in Jesus' name. Help her to cast her burdens on You, for You care for her (1 Peter 5:7, WEB). Give her the strength to face her fears and worries without resorting to alcohol.
We also pray for her husband's health, her son's health, and her cat Sandy's health. Lord, You know their needs and we trust that You will work all things together for good (Romans 8:28, WEB).
Father, we ask that You fill Coscad with Your Holy Spirit, that she may find comfort, peace, and strength in You. Help her to fix her eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith (Hebrews 12:2, WEB). In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Coscad, remember that God loves you dearly and He desires to help you overcome this addiction. Trust in Him, and seek support from fellow believers. Consider connecting with a Christian support group for addiction. Lastly, if you haven't already, personally invite Jesus Christ into your life as your Lord and Savior. It's in Him that we find true peace and freedom.
