Prayer For Dealing With And Overcoming Addictions
Freedom From Addiction Through Christ’s Power
Heavenly Father, I come before You with a heart weighed down by my struggles. My addiction has gripped me, and I feel powerless against its pull. I recognize that I cannot break free from this bondage on my own, and I humbly turn to You, seeking Your strength, grace, and intervention.
Lord Jesus, You came to set the captives free, and I believe in Your power to break every chain. I lay my addiction at Your feet and ask for Your transformative power to cleanse and renew me.
I confess the times I’ve willingly walked into temptation, and I repent for allowing this addiction to become an idol in my life.
I long for the freedom that comes from living in Your will, unburdened by the weight of this affliction. Give me the determination and perseverance to overcome, and the wisdom to avoid situations and triggers that lead me astray.
Romans 6:14 For sin shall no longer be your master, because you are not under the law, but under grace.
1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
Renewing My Mind and Heart
Oh God, Your Word tells me that by the renewing of my mind, I can be transformed. I seek this transformation now, Lord. Let Your Holy Spirit fill me, pushing out the desires that are not of You and replacing them with a hunger and thirst for righteousness.
Replace the pleasure I derive from my addiction with a deeper, purer joy found in You alone. Guide me to scriptures that will speak to my situation, and give me understanding and revelation as I meditate on them.
May Your Word be the sword I use to fight against temptation. Surround me with believers who will support me, encourage me, and hold me accountable. Give me the humility to confess my struggles and seek help when needed.
Romans 12:2 Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
Psalm 119:11 I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.
Restoring What Was Lost
Oh Lord, this addiction has taken so much from me. Relationships have been strained, opportunities missed, and my communion with You has been compromised.
But I believe in Your power to restore. As I work towards breaking free from this addiction, I pray that You will work in the areas of my life that have been damaged. Mend broken relationships, restore my health, and revive my spirit.
I also ask for Your protection against relapse. May I always be vigilant, recognizing the schemes of the enemy who seeks to ensnare me again.
I declare that no weapon formed against me shall prosper and that with You, I am more than a conqueror.
Let my testimony of freedom be a beacon of hope to others who are trapped in the grip of addiction, pointing them to the ultimate Healer and Deliverer.
Joel 2:25 I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten—the great locust and the young locust, the other locusts and the locust swarm—my great army that I sent among you.
Isaiah 41:10 So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
DELIVERANCE From The Control Of All Addictions!
Almighty God, I thank You for Your unfailing love and mercy. Even in my weakest moments, You have never forsaken me. I lean on Your strength and grace as I embark on this journey towards complete freedom from addiction.
I declare DELIVERANCE from the control of all addictions! I know that the road may be long and filled with challenges, but with You by my side, I am confident in my victory.
Lord, be my guide, my protector, and my strength. I declare that in You, I am set free, and whom the Son sets free is free indeed. In the mighty name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
