August 21, 2019 at 9:45 amDear DAB family, please join me to pray for my husband whose drinking addiction is taking a bad toll. It started off with a drink at table and now, one cannot have a conversation with him in the evening as he is so drunk he goes to bed. Please help me pray as it is affecting our marriage. In his HOLY NAME, Amen! Stella

August 21, 2019 at 12:04 pmHeavenly Father, I pray that you would reach down and heal this husband of the terrible disease of alcoholism. As I bow before your throne of grace, I pray that if he is not aware of his disease, that you would reveal this truth to him, and guide him to help that will lead to sobriety, with you as his constant companion and his peace. You know best what resources are best for him, and I believe, Lord, that you have already prepared this perfect path for your suffering son. Take his hand and guide him to the path you have prepared for him to walk. We believe that it is no accident that this prayer request is before us; it was ordained by you to muster the prayer power of the community of faith. I also pray for his wife as she copes with the difficult life of living with and loving a person who has the disease of addiction. I ask that you give her your wisdom on how to deal with this crisis that robs their home of all normalcy. In the mighty name of Jesus Christ, I come against the evil one who rejoices every time a person succumbs to the slavery of addiction, who glories in the destruction of lives and homes. I pray that Satan would be bound from any further influence over this son you created in your own image. Father, we pray for your mercies to fall over this household; by the cleansing and healing power of the blood of Jesus, deliver him from alcoholism. Father, I pray that you would raise up still more intercessors to storm the chambers of heaven on behalf of the life of this son. I pray, Father, that you will not tarry long. Lord, speak to the heart and mind of this husband even as he struggles to have clear thoughts. Let your words and your wisdom penetrate his brain even as he seeks to numb his racing thoughts and emotions. Father, show him that you can help him deal with his emotional pain and insecurities without the need to pour alcohol over the pain. Show yourself as his perfect healer. We praise you, Father, for the privilege of standing before your throne and pleading for the life of this son and the life of his wife and their marriage.

August 21, 2019 at 1:16 pmAbba, Father! You are HOLY! I pray in agreement with above prayers that You are in control and know what is best for this dear man as he struggles with addiction. Yes, Lord, open his eyes to truth so that he will begin to see that as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are Your ways higher than our ways, Your thoughts higher than our thoughts. I pray the promise that Your Word shall not return to You empty but shall accomplish that which You purpose and it shall succeed in the thing for which You send it. I pray Your Word over this son of Yours that needs reconciliation and has lost his way. Give him the strength to rise up above it and to seek Your Face. In Jesus Name!

August 21, 2019 at 1:38 pmStanding in agreement with these prayers to conquer the alcohol addiction. Lord, You know I came from such a family as this, and, my own marriage sunk to this terrible level. Help our sister ask herself if she and/or their children are hurting because of his behavior. If she/they are, it’s too much. It’s time to act.
Stella: Action was the only language my dear husband understood. He listened to none of my words and requests. It was only when I packed my bags and those of our little children and left for a week, did he start to understand there was a problem. Before I left, I told him why I was going. He had a choice to make: me and the kids, or alcohol. It was a good first step.
Looking back, I wish I had done this earlier and made a stronger statement by staying gone longer and having no contact with him. I wish I had known that his greatest fear was of losing me. If I had known that, I would have used it to bring our family back into godly alignment sooner. I would have set aside my emotions and acted calmly and more often.
Thank You, Father, for helping me when You did and I called our pastor to come help us, twice, and I called his best friend, to come help us. Thank You for helping me let go of my fears of abandonment and being alone, unloved, in order to bless our sons and our marriage. Thank You for continuing to work on each of us such that we CHOSE to stay married, and to make a better marriage going forward. Listening to the DAB daily is another blessing and improvement in our spiritual walk.

August 21, 2019 at 4:02 pmDear Lord,
We lift up Stella’s husband up to you. We know that your heart aches for the lost and he is that lost sheep that needs to be brought back to you! You are the good shepherd and we pray that you steer his way back to you through your love and patience. Have mercy on his soul father God. Open his eyes that he may see that the void he is trying to fill his heart with can only be filled by you!! Touch him wherever he may be and bring conviction upon his heart dear Lord….that he may be able to see the damage he is doing to himself and to his marriage. Give Stella the courage and the strength to bear this current trial. That her faithfulness to her husband be a living testimony to others and that it will all lead to your glory and your honor. Bring peace upon her husband and surround him with your love and grace. This we ask in the power of your precious name, Amen.felixculpa723Prayers: 2063Requests: 7
August 25, 2019 at 2:48 pmFather, I stand before your holy throne again today agreeing with and even reciting to you again these prayers above. I pray again for the healing of this husband from the devastation and deception of the terrible disease of alcoholism. I pray for the healing of this marriage, and the ability of this wife to continue to walk beside, to forgive and to believe her husband once he accepts his need for treatment and healing. Father, we lay these saints upon your altar for your healing. Keep us attentive to each prompt you give us to pray!
