Pray for me...

Get help and accept responsibility! Don't wait on God to do it for you!

I'm gonna find an addiction counselor and get in the church.

But prayers from others are always needed too.

Romans 7:15-20 New International Version (NIV)
15 I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16 And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17 As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. 18 For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature.[a] For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. 19 For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it.

This is where I'm at. This Bible verse speaks hard to me.

Godspeed BlueOne. You are in our thoughts and prayers

I will pray for you, but make a choice to choose happiness no matter how bad your soroundings want you to be otherwise. I think I spelled that wrong. Anyway I have to go over every morning my blessings and try to stay focused there.

I don't do prayers.
But
I wish for you to have the strength to go through the solving of your problems.

Be strong and trust yourself to be so !

I hear ya OP. I'm stuck at the Romans 7 stage of things. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. It's like I'm being constantly tempted and tested. I know the beautiful timeless spirit of God is all around us, and many many times in recent days I have been filled with His perfect presence, but the closer I get to God, the harder the enemy fights for my attention, and I'm a very weak person, very easily distracted.

This battle has been raging on within me for weeks now, but I feel sure I will win in the end, and so will you if you stick firmly to the word of God and get back to it straight after every fall.

In this world you will have troubles, but fear not, for I have already overcome the world.

Get in touch with a local AA group and go to a meeting. It helps.

First...get baptised.

Dear Lord,

We lift up our glp friend to you for healing. Please break the generational curse upon them. We thank you.

In Jesus' Name we pray,
Amen

If you need some Christian counseling, please feel free to contact me at [email protected]. I will be glad to offer prayers together, guidance in your walk with Christ, and encouragement for addictions. I too struggled with addictions and anger management for the longest time. Praise God that through Him I came out victorious.

God answered my prayer, I prayed and prayed for him to help me stop drinking and I stopped.

I have been sober ever since and that was 30 years ago, I have also prayed for others who asked for help and they quit.

I will pray for you.

God Bless You

Thank you all.... Some days are full of light and I'm nothing but a sunshine. Other days are difficult.

I will be getting baptized very soon here.

I'm gonna try my hardest to not buy the crap no more.

Y'all's kind words means alot.

I forget not everyone hates me.

Ask and you shall receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will open...

You have asked...He has heard your hearts cry and HE WILL ANSWER!

Those who believe here join in your prayer!

Blue, I want to tell you a brief part of my story.

Several years ago I was earning an excellent living in Las Vegas when I learned the man I had loved and adored for the past 30 years had been cheating on me.

I was devastated.

I had lived a Christian life that entire time- which made it even worse.

I didn't understand how a person who loved God, had been saved by Christ, loyally tithed not only my church but also the community as well as the homeless population could be flung to rock bottom.

Because drugs were so prevalent in the casinos where I worked it wasn't hard to obtain a lethal dose.

The evening I lined up the pills all in a row to consume I spent 20 minutes cursing God. I told him how much I hated him, despised him, loathed him... And it was raw rage filled with pure hatred.

I can't tell you all the blasphemous things that I hurled out to him.

As I turned to start taking the pills the phone rang and I answered it.

A minister from my former church 1,000 miles away (whom I had never spoken with in person) just happened to call and talk with me.

If you don't think this was a God-thing with God's perfect timing, I don't know what to tell you.

Though he comforted me I told him, "It's too late. You have no idea what I said to Him. It was awful. He'll never forgive me. I told Him I HATED Him and I MEANT it."

The minister paused and then said to me with a slight, loving, fatherly laugh: Lynne, Hate is NOT the opposite of love. Indifference is.

The fact is that I was brutally honest with God in those desperate hours and as close to Him as I'd ever been.

It hasn't been easy these past few years but He is with me every day.

If you need to talk further with someone who understands what you're going through please get in touch with me.

I think I can help you through this.

Love, Miggy

Prayers for you OP. Here's how to break the generational curse.

OP your addiction is hindering your relationship with God. Ask him to show you this.

When you realise this, you can then really begin to hate the addiction. Then you can really sincerely ask God for help to get clean.

We are simply not capable of bringing salvation to ourselves. Only God can do that. The fact that you are grieving as you do for the state of your current existence is a pretty certain recognition that you are not meant for this world. You are one of God's, and he is calling you.

Whilst we can fail to bring ourselves to God, he will not fail. Have confidence in his power, not your own.

Blessing brother, your real life has begun

That is a powerful testimony Miggy! You have been on here many years and I've always thought from your statements that you were a good soul. Now I know.

I have been through a lot of troubling times also, I know for a fact if it wasn't for my dear old Mother and her prayers I would have been a lost cause.

I am praying for you OP, prayer is the most powerful thing in the world.

Jesus prayed as David did in His suffering, "My God, My God, why have you forsaken me..."

In modern words... God, where in the hell are you? Perhaps this is the most honest prayer there is?!?

What is His answer??

I will NEVER leave you or forsake you!

OP please read up in my threads about the nature of god.. who is not some sky idiot wearing a beard. God the Father manifests ONLY THRU HUMAN BEINGS ON THESE WORLDS.... MANIFEST HIM. YOU WILL GET HELP IF YOU PARTICIPATE IN THAT HELP.

Water baptism does nothing.. except maybe a marker for some people. MEDITATE WITHIN TO YOUR FATHER FRAGMENT or HIGHER SELF

the olden saying of God Helps those who help themselves has merit.

God won't do it for him'/her.. but God will assist the process.

WHY?

That is definitely a God thing.... Just wow.... His timing is perfect....

My problem too is that I married a man who is the master of mental mindf**kery. He is trying to change, truly. But he is what he is. I didn't realize until I was in too deep what he was.... It eats me alive. He takes great care of me and is an excellent lover, but once again, he can't stop himself sometimes from his nature.

Think yin and yang, beauty and the beast.

He's told me he doesn't think I'm on God's radar at all because of how much I've sweared. He doesnt recognize my gift and doesn't seem to understand. I think he does understand, but his demons wont let him go to the light fully.

What I married into is eating me slowly. This world has outcast me too. I have no voice in this world.

Out of all people I even tried to talk to my uncle one time about people that were following me. I was treated like a paranoid liar. Before I even got a word out, his first words were, that Jesus shit isnt going to save you. I had said nothing about Jesus. It was a direct attack. Noone listens to me, or believes me. Even though I try to always tell the truth.

How much longer can us believers be in this world, there is nothing for us here :'( I'm tired of being a crybaby. I just want to meet Jesus already. I want him to hold me. Im a tough bitch yet such a little crybaby.

Im done venting I'm sorry im being weak. Thank you guys for being there for me , you have no idea how much it helps.

My advise. 1. Get baptized. I would recommend Christian Orthodoxy, in spite schisms and divisions may try to stop from it. Individual Faith and Spiritual Journey and experience is more important than religion.

After baptism, make a Spiritual Pilgrimage into Holy Places, where Ancient and still active Monasteries. While doing it get rid off all drugs prescribed by doctors and it will make easier to get rid off alcohol too.

As a matter of fact, my friend did that and voila, miracle happened. Man with complicated case of bipolar mixed with schizophrenia is now healthy looking and absolutely off drug and alcohol.

God's Blessings with You! My prayers

:Thankyou Rose:

I will pray for you.
