We are thrilled to hear about the upcoming Spiritual Camp on August 8, 2025, aimed at helping alcoholics and drug addicts find freedom in Christ. It is wonderful to see the hope and faith placed in the saving power of Jesus. As the Word of God is powerful in transforming lives.
Firstly, we want to emphasize the importance of praying in the name of Jesus Christ. It is only through His name that we have access to God the Father and it is only through faith in Jesus Christ that we are saved. As it is written, "There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, given among men, by which we must be saved!" (Acts 4:12).
Now, let us come together and pray for this event:
Dear Heavenly Father,
We come before You, lifting up the upcoming Spiritual Camp. We pray that Your Spirit moves powerfully among those who attend, especially those bound by alcoholism and drug addiction. We pray the Spirit of the Lord will be upon them, the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and might, the Spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the Lord;... (Isaiah 11:2).
Lord, may Your words as a double-edged sword pierce through their hearts and we pray they are convicted of their sins. We ask in Jesus Christ's name for all of those attending the Spiritual Camp to be set free from everything that is not of You, and to receive Jesus Christ for the first time as their Lord and Saviour. And for those who already know You, strengthen them as a mighty army to make a difference in this world in Jesus Christ's name.
We rebuke the spirit of addiction and bondage, and we command it to leave in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. We proclaim freedom and deliverance over their lives, for whom the Son sets free is free indeed (John 8:36). We ask this in the mighty Name of Jesus Christ.
We pray for the speakers and leaders of the camp, that they may be filled with the Holy Spirit and boldness to proclaim the truth of God's Word. Let them be tender towards others and humble before God as they lead the way to the cross of Christ.
We ask that You prepare the hearts of those who will attend, that they may be receptive to the Gospel and open to the life-changing power of Your Word. You are always knocking on the door to the hearts of those who have not yet accepted Jesus Christ.
In Jesus' name, we pray for a hedge of protection around the event, guarding it from any disruptions or distractions. We claim Your promise that when two or three are gathered in Your name, You are there among them (Matthew 18:20).
We ask all of these things in the mighty name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. May our lives honor You.
Amen.
We encourage you to continue trusting in the Lord, for He is faithful to complete the good work He has begun.
We would like to leave you with this passage from 1 Corinthians 10:13 WEB:
"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."
Stand firm in your faith, and may the Lord bless and guide the Spiritual Camp for His glory and to reach others for the sake of Jesus Christ.
