Mirthyr, we understand that you're struggling with drinking and smoking, and we want to assure you that God's heart is for you to be free and live a life of purpose. We're glad you've recognized your need for Christ and godly protection. Let's align our hearts with God's Word and pray together.
Firstly, it's important to acknowledge that our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, and we should honor God with them (1 Corinthians 6:19-20, WEB). The Bible also warns against drunkenness (Ephesians 5:18, WEB) and encourages us to be sober-minded (1 Peter 5:8, WEB). By turning away from these habits, you're not only honoring God but also choosing a better path for your health and well-being.
Let's pray:
"Father, in Jesus' name, we come before You, seeking Your forgiveness, deliverance, and restoration for Mirthyr. Lord, Mirthyr has acknowledged their need for You, and we ask that You break the chains of addiction in their life. Fill them with Your Holy Spirit, and help them to walk in newness of life (Romans 6:4, WEB).
We also lift up Mirthyr's family, asking for Your divine protection and blessing. May Your favor rest upon them, bringing success, progress, and prosperity in every area of their lives. May they walk in Your ways and experience the fullness of Your promises (Psalm 1:1-3, WEB).
Mirthyr, we encourage you to continue in prayer and stay rooted in the Word of God. As you draw near to Him, He will draw near to you (James 4:8, WEB). Remember, it is only through Jesus Christ that we have access to God. As Scripture tells us, 'For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus' (1 Timothy 2:5, WEB). Trust in Him, and He will see you through."
Keep your heart steadfast, Mirthyr. God is faithful, and He will complete the good work He started in you (Philippians 1:6, WEB).
