I would love to do volunteer work and feel like I had a purpose God is my purpose, but my physical health has faded so bad that it's all I can do to just be conscious I can't explain it to you but the pain that I experience from what the devil and his minions do to me is more than any one person could bear and it's by the grace of God that I'm still alive thank you for the comment though God bless you man.
I do not know how much time I have left I have been praying for seven years for the Lord to deliver me from my addiction to pain medicine and cigarettes and he hasn't . I am completely saved and a child of God but I still struggle with addiction I have for over 20 years I broke my back 20 years ago in a dirt bike accident and was introduced to opiate pain medicines and now I take something for pain and it doesn't even help but I can't bear to go through the withdrawal and cigarettes I've spent thousands of dollars on patches and tried medicines and nothing seems to help. I'm asking God for help and I'm asking for you guys to pray for God to help me because I don't know how much longer I have this disease will kill me before I even know I'm dead and I don't want to go out like that I know the Lord is sad seeing me like this and I want my Dad in heaven to be proud of me again. I'm 38 now and I was saved at 22 but didn't start walking with the Lord until I was 31 or 32 and at first he really sparked a zeal in me that was unstoppable and a love that I still have for him to this day but my addiction gets in the way and the devil constantly makes me think about medicine and cigarettes and I don't hear the Lord's voice convicting me or making me think of him I'm going to die someday but I don't want to die yet, in the past 7 years I've learned a lot about the Lord and his word and his character and I love him as a daddy and a friend and a savior . The Bible says that the Lord forgives me and that I'm saved and justified by faith alone in Jesus Christ but I don't want to have this habitual sin in my life anymore. I have real pain in my back I have a spinal fusion with rods and screws and it always returns worse without medicine and my anxiety that I take anxiety medicine for is so bad that I can't breathe and I've had panic attacks ever since I started walking with the Lord. I just don't know what to do. Lord please help me in Jesus name amen. βοΈπβοΈπβοΈπβοΈπβοΈπβοΈππ³οΈπ³οΈπ³οΈπ³οΈπ³οΈπ³οΈπ³οΈ
Ty soooooooo much DebβοΈπI finally feel a little bit encouraged. I didn't think that medication was a sin but what the Lord has shown me is that some can be bad. But I always pray for His comfort and pain relief 1st, most of the time as long as I can remember, but sadly most of the time it seems it's my thorn in the flesh almost. As for the cigarettes I've spent 1000s$ on patches and gums and lose he's and 1000s of prayers for strength and hope and encouragement to quit smoking to no avail so far. But I keep praying literally after each cig I ask the Lord to forgive and take the addiction away and that I can't do it without His help. Admitting my powerlessness daily and 100% dependence on Him to just breath even..thank you so much and please keep praying for me God bless you and have a good night!
