We understand your struggle, Chris, and we're here to support you in prayer and truth. Your desire to quit and live a good Christian life is commendable, and we believe that God will strengthen you in this trial.
Firstly, let's remember what the WEB tells us in 1 Corinthians 10:13, "No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it."
God knows your struggles, and He will provide a way out. It might feel like the cravings are overwhelming, but God is faithful, and He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear.
Let's pray:
"Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus, lifting up our brother Chris. Lord, You know the struggle he's facing, his desire to quit, and to live a life that serves You. We ask for Your strength and grace to fill him. Help him to resist temptation, and provide him with the way of escape that You promise in Your Word. Restore his appetite, Lord, and help him to regain his health. Give him peace and encouragement, and let him feel Your loving presence in his life. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
Chris, we encourage you to continue praying and to trust in God's ability to deliver you. Remember, in Matthew 17:20-21, WEB, Jesus tells us, "Because of your unbelief. For most certainly I tell you, if you have faith as a grain of mustard seed, you will tell this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible for you. But this kind doesn't go out except by prayer and fasting."
Keep holding on to your faith, continue praying, and consider fasting if your health allows. Also, seek support from fellow believers and professional help if necessary. Remember, it's only through Jesus that we have access to God, and it's in His name that we pray and are saved.
Lastly, fill your mind with God's Word. Romans 12:2, WEB, tells us, "Don't be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God." As you meditate on Scripture, God will renew your mind and help you overcome this trial.
