I've been struggling through sin for the last 5 or 6 years secretly. I've several times told myself I would quit this habbit but it keeps creeping back up on me. So please anyone out there that will pray for me would be great! Thank you so much.

Yes, I just prayed before I answered this and i will continue to pray! God bless you for reaching out and being strong and bold enough to ask for many to stand with you, in agreement, that God will "break these chains which bind you."
I believe that most all Christians can relate to your situation as it is so easy to "fall" back into sin! We are all guilty! You, have the desire to be an overcomer through our Lord and I am believing with you that YOU WILL succeed, through HIM!
Blessings

You have my prayers.
What I have found ,when I have to really cry out and seek God to help me.
Then I am a kinder person to others who struggle with problems of the flesh.
I prayed 33 years for deliverance from smoking ,then one day it just happened. But my heart has so much compassion for smokers. Because I know how hard it is.
Give the problem to God ,ask Jesus to forgive you.Now praise God .Its no longer your problem, its Gods.<><

I used to live that life.The Christian life is the most wonderful life there is if your faithful.Its also very miserable if your not.I fasted and prayed that God would show me how ugly my sin was to Him.I found that it wasn't as ugly to Him as I thought it might be, but rather I seen how it was hurting Him.That made it ugly to me and I was able to finally repent.I will be fasting and praying for you tomorrow, won't you do the same?Many people will be lifting you up in prayer as well and you should get the victory here.Praise the Lord!

I will say a prayer for you. Whatever the sin is that has a hold on you, I'm sure there's a group somewhere you could see about joining. Maybe talk to a pastor. My husband did once and with very positive results. Doesn't matter what the issue is, a pastor should be able to point you in the right direction. :) God bless.

Brian I will be happy to pray with you.
I have my struggles too. But just remember God's Love it is great. Nothing to tough for Him....He knows our hearts and thoughts. we have sometimes we get stuck in some stuff and its not easy to release it as fast as we want.
God will reveal Himself to you in a way that will make it easy though and you will do one of those doh! kind of things but He will make a way my brother and Remember always look to Him and not that problem and Through Looking to Him He will speak that deliverance to you. We Christians have a target on our backs and I've noticed that once we think we are strong in an area the devil attacks it and is the only one that can provide the strength to fight the enemy and his devices.Its a battle for your faith and joy just rejoice in God for you know your deliverance is coming and Jesus's Blood will cover it! Praise God!!

In Yeshua's Mighty Name We Pray,
AMEN!!

1 Timothy 5:24, "Some men's sins are open beforehand, going before to judgment; and some men they follow after."
1 Peter 3:12, "For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil."
Repent and ask the Lord to restore your conscience--please read my answer here:

My prayer for you is that you seek out the Lord with your whole heart.

I will pray for you, A "name" would be good to pray for, I know in my 37 years, even what seems the worst turns out for the best. Read Proverbs, esp Chapter 3 verse 5 "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, lean not unto thine own understanding, In all thy ways acknoweledge Him but direct thy paths" This always seems to get me through the troubles. I wll pray for you, there are many people praying for you, feel it.

Hi Brian....we all have secret sins....which are not secret to God. I sure will pray for you and will ask you to do the same for me. When you reach out to each other in Jesus' name it strengthens us. (Luke 22:32)
I want to share a Bible promise with you to claim for yourself and pray back to God when you feel weak.
"My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness." 2 Corinth. 12:9
We are weakness...God is strength. If God said He can...then we need to believe Him. God cannot lie. Titus 1:2
God bless you and keep you in His will.

Yes, Brian, as one who believes in and can testify to the power of prayer, and also as one who struggles with a particular sin, .......yes, I will lift you up to the Lord. I will ask that He give you strength to overcome your temptation and to use it for a testimony for His glory.
Yes, Brian, Yes.........I will be your friend in prayer.....
