Quitting smoking is a great battle and you will need all the help you can get.
My favorite verse is Rom: 8:28. It fits all situations and is especially helpful when you are going through a difficult time.

Phillippians 4:13
"I can do all things through Christ, who strenghthens me."
I know you must be having a hard time but the Lord knows your heart and He will help you. I smoked for over 20 years and I finally said okay Lord, I give you these cigarettes as a gift to show you how desperately I want to serve you--and I chose a date to quit and I never picked it up again. Praise God!!!! You can do it if you give it to God. I'll be praying for you.

Heb 12:1 So therefore we also, having so great a cloud of witnesses lying around us, having laid aside every weight and the easily surrounding sin, through patience let us also run the race set before us,
Heb 12:2 looking to the Author and Finisher of our faith, Jesus, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, "and sat down at the right" of the throne of God.
1Co 9:24 Do you not know that those running in a stadium indeed all run, but one receives the prize? So run that you may obtain.
1Co 9:25 But everyone striving controls himself in all things. Then those truly that they may receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.
1Co 9:26 So I run accordingly, as not uncertainly; so I fight, as not beating air;
1Co 9:27 but I buffet my body and lead it captive, lest proclaiming to others I myself might be disapproved.

Matthew 26:41 - Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

I find this one to be quite inspirational...
Song of Solomon 7:8
I said, "I will climb the palm tree; I will take hold of its fruit." May your breasts be like the clusters of the vine, the fragrance of your breath like apples,

Psalm 1
EDIT: I quit June 9, 1991.
I ask God to quit for me, I did not have the strength.
