Avoiding Alcohol, Drugs, and Other Addictions Prayer

Avoiding Alcohol, Drugs, and Other Addictions

Lord, I pray that You would thwart any plan Satan has to destroy her (his) life through alcohol and drugs. Take away anything in her (his) personality that would be drawn to those substances. Your Word says, “There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death” (Proverbs 16:25). Give her (him) discernment and strength to be able to say “no” to things that bring death and “yes” to the things of God that bring life. May she (he) clearly see the truth whenever tempted and be delivered from the evil one whenever trapped. Enable her (him) to choose life in whatever she (he) does, and may her (his) only addiction be to the things of God. In Jesus’ name I pray that everything she (he) does with her (his) body be done to Your glory.

The righteousness of the upright will deliver them, but the unfaithful will be caught by their lust.
Proverbs 11:6
