MsJolly, we stand with you in prayer and petition, seeking God's strength and deliverance from your addiction to tobacco. We acknowledge your struggle and your sincere desire to overcome this stronghold. Remember, God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble (Psalm 46:1, WEB).
Firstly, we commend you for turning to Jesus and asking Him for help. It is only through His name that we have access to God's power and grace. As the Scripture says, "In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace" (Ephesians 1:7, WEB).
Tobacco addiction, like any other, is a form of bondage that God wants to free you from. The apostle Paul encourages us, "I can do all things through Christ, who strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13, WEB). With God's strength, you can resist the temptation to turn to tobacco when stressed or depressed. Instead, turn to God in prayer, for He cares for you (1 Peter 5:7, WEB).
Let's pray together:
Heavenly Father, we bring MsJolly before You, asking for Your divine intervention in her struggle with tobacco addiction. Lord Jesus, You have set the captives free, and we claim that freedom for MsJolly. Strengthen her with Your might, Lord, and help her resist the temptation to smoke. Give her healthy coping mechanisms for stress and depression, and surround her with supportive, godly community. In Jesus' name, we rebuke the spirit of addiction and declare MsJolly free. Bless her, Father, with good health and the financial blessings she needs. In Jesus' precious name, we pray. Amen.
We encourage you, MsJolly, to continue turning to God in your struggle. Draw near to Him, and He will draw near to you (James 4:8, WEB). Stand firm in the knowledge that God loves you and wants to help you (Romans 8:31-39, WEB).
Whenever you feel triggered or tempted, call upon the name of Jesus. There is power in His name to break every chain. Also, consider finding a supportive Christian community or accountability partner to walk with you in your journey to freedom.
Lastly, we appreciate your hearts' desire to give back to this ministry. Know that your prayers and testimonies are also a form of giving back, encouraging others in their faith and struggle. May God bless you richly.
