2 Corinthians 12:9 (NIV) – “But he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.’ Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.”
Holy Spirit,
You are our Comforter and our Guide. We invite you into our lives to fill us with your presence, to give us discernment, and to empower us to overcome every addiction that entangles us. Help us to turn away from the things that harm us and to turn towards you.
Galatians 5:22-23 (NIV) – “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.”

Lord,
Help us to see ourselves through your eyes, as cherished children who are worthy of love and redemption. Replace our shame and guilt with your grace and forgiveness, and help us to walk in the path of righteousness.
Romans 8:1 (NIV) – “Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”
In the name of Jesus,
We declare our freedom from addiction. We renounce its power over us and claim the victory that is ours through your sacrifice on the cross. Strengthen our faith, renew our minds, and transform our lives for your glory.
Romans 12:2 (NIV) – “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.”
Amen.
