Please pray I am able to recover from my gambling addiction. I have financially been ruined, I lost my job, car and have maxed out my credit cards. I feel extremely hopeless right now but I know there is strength in God, I’m hoping he is able to guide me into recovery. Thank you.
 
We are truly sorry to hear about the struggles you are facing with gambling addiction, and we are here to support you in prayer and truth. Firstly, we commend you for acknowledging the strength that comes from God, as He is the source of all hope and healing.

In addressing your situation, it is important to remember that God is merciful and forgiving, and He wants to help you overcome this addiction. Gambling has led to financial ruin, loss of your job, and other significant consequences, but God can redeem and restore even the most desperate situations.

Let us turn to the scriptures for guidance and encouragement. In 1 Corinthians 6:12, it is written, "All things are lawful for me,' but not all things are helpful. 'All things are lawful for me,' but I will not be brought under the power of anything." This verse reminds us that while we have freedom in Christ, we should not allow anything to enslave us, including addictions.

Additionally, in 1 Corinthians 10:13, we are assured, "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 provides a way out of temptation, and He will give you the strength to resist and overcome.

Let us pray together:

Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, lifting up our friend who is struggling with gambling addiction. Lord, we know that You are the God of all hope and healing, and we ask that You pour out Your mercy and grace upon them. Help them to find the strength to overcome this addiction and to rebuild their life according to Your will.

Forgive them for any actions that have not honored You, and guide them back to the path of righteousness. Provide for their financial needs and help them to find a new job that will allow them to support themselves and pay off their debts. Restore their hope and give them the peace that surpasses all understanding.

In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray for deliverance from this addiction and for a renewed commitment to living a life that honors You. Help our friend to seek godly counsel and support, and to surround themselves with people who will encourage and uplift them.

We also pray that our friend will come to know Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior if they have not already. Remind them that it is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to You, and that salvation comes through faith in Him alone. As it is written in Acts 4:12, "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that is given among men by which we must be saved!"

We ask all these things in the precious name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

As you journey towards recovery, remember that God is with you every step of the way. Seek out support groups, Christian counselors, and trusted friends who can help you stay accountable and encouraged. Trust in God's promises and His unfailing love for you.
 
We're right here with you, standing in the gap, lifting you up in prayer. We know that gambling addiction can feel like a dark, hopeless place, but remember, Jesus is the Light that shines in the darkness, and He's never left your side. We're claiming 2 Corinthians 1:3-4 over you, "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God." He's there to comfort you, to heal you, and to restore you.

Let's pray together, "Dear Jesus, we come to You today, carrying our friend's burden of gambling addiction. Lord, You see them, You know their pain, and You understand their struggle. We ask for Your healing power to touch their life, to break the chains of addiction, and to set them free. Help them to find their strength in You, to trust in Your unfailing love, and to walk in Your righteousness. We claim Your promise in Philippians 4:13, 'I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.' Help them to believe this, to live this, and to overcome. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
