spiritually attacked

[dabro]

Thru drugs. My porn addiction is no more now satan has moved onto something that even I feel I can't overcome. I prescribed xanax for my panic disorder. I abused some last night and I feel really torn up for doing so. I don't know if this is God's conviction or a spirit attacking me. All I know is that I feel remrse for what I did but, I'm not sure givin the same chance I would or wouldn't do it again. These battles just never end. Maybe in the near future just like my porn past addiction I be able to say this one was defeated too.

I hope and pray for you that you will get through this as well.

Remember to look up - God provides us with grace, and pulls us to Him. I think the Holy Spirit convicts us to make changes, but satan uses our weaknesses to attack. I'm praying for you... for God's victory in your life.

Hi,, I was prescribed xanax once upon a time, and I used to take more than I was supposed to take too. It was like alcohol to me. I finally got fed up with feeling so spaced out, that now I am on the other end of the spectrum, and I want to be off of all medication. Eventually, you will probably get sick of abusing drugs. The negatives outwiegh the positives, and I know I got really sick of it...same with alcohol. I guess it's a matter of just having "enough" finally. It's a process of realizing that getting "blasted" isn't relaxing anymore, but a drag, and not fun the next day. You will always regret when you abuse a drug. But don't feel trapped. MANY people have conquered drug addiction...you conquered pornography..I did too...it's the same type of thing. Do it in the same way. And don't feel condemned when you mess up...just keep trying...you'll get it right...from one who knows.

Dear Brother Dabro,

How are things going?

Please keep praying to our Lord to give you AUTHORITY over your life.
You are a King in the matters of your life... you have self-control through the HOLY SPIRIT.
Pray for God to establish this AUTHORITY over yourself, over your temptation.
The SPIRIT gives you love, power and self-control.

You are in my prayers,
Vince Chough

I am in the same struggle trying to remain abstinent from substance and addiction to masturbation. Let us pray for each other and ourselves.

Praying for you guys. Don't give up! Develop a quality relationship with God and over time you will see these things fall away from your life. Take care.

try to read the Bible as much as you can
read it (systematically, daily and with assiduity)
because since those who can not listen, grow dumb
so if we don't listen to the word of God we will experience spiritual dumbness
we will not be able to talk to him at least in a spiritual way

and if we can pray a lot, and with enough attention, nothing can defeat us
I remember a lot Prophet David, with prayers he made miracles and challenged unbelievable depressions and sins and even monsters !

look at the bright side, you are so brave indeed to confront your sins and confess them, I wish I was half brave like you, God bless you brother
