We've been married for 20 years... and throughout those years... We have been used by God... to touch lives... and God has been so faithful to us... However... my husband... entered the marriage addicted to porn... kept it secret ... but it came out... God revealed it to me... I was devasted... because I knew full well the depth of this horrible addiction could/would have on our marriage... How much is would steal from us... and what God could do through us and with us as a couple and individually. When my husband finally came clean... or at least the first time was "caught'... We entered into counseling with an untrained pastor... who had good intentions... but no real experience in this area. The addiction went underground for awhile... and I hoped... maybe it's gone... but then a few years later again it came-up again... affecting our love-making... Not directly... (because my husband didn't push anything on me.. thankfully)... but indirectly with the lack-there-of... which caused a hurt and unbelievable pain in me.. and with us... Then we got real counseling... and we got healing.. and I thought..now it's gone... and it was a for awhile.. and then again.. it came back... my husband refused to stay accountable... refused to be real with the addiction... So... again hurt/and so much time lost... so many dreams crushed... I began to ask.. should I stay? should I go? God kept telling me to holdon.... I said to God.. to what? he said.. To me! I did... When the most recent-fall occured... 2008... I seperated from my husband with the help of our pastor... and my husband lived seperately from me for awhile... then with full confession..etc.. I allowed him back in again... Now... two years or more later... things are better.. but I still don't feel safe... I still feel like he's still "playing" with this thing.. maybe not directly... but indirectly... I have my suspicions... Please pray that David... be fully healed... but that he be fully aware of the enemy.. and that he be fully saved by God... that he be fully willing to give-up all for Jesus.. once and for all! Thank you! Amen!

I am 31 years old grew up in a strong christian family but have for these past 12 years had not been living a truly christian life. 10 years ago i joined the Navy and thats when i really started partying, to be honest i never thought drinking and going out was all that wrong, but here i am now and have realized that drinking has caused me so many problems. 2 months ago i started going back to church went to the alter and cried to God about my drinking then weeks later i got a DUI. I know it is God giving me a wake up call but i struggle with wanting just that 1 glass of wine which then turns into 4. I need serious heavy duty prayer i want the urge to go away , i want to feel sick if i even think about it. Please pray for me , i dont want to ruin my life, it is to important God has a plan for me and I want to start fulfilling it, whatever it may be.

I am a born again Christian and have been since 2006. Jesus came into my life in 2000. I have had a heroin addiction for many years now. I am on prescribed medication to take away the withdrawels but I still keep stumbling and using heroin. I don't get an effect from it but every time I have money I will buy some. Sometimes I go weeks without it and other times its just days. I long for the day when I can be totally free from this addiction. I do love the Lord with all my heart. But I battle with the flesh. I have been through rehab and counselling yet still I just keep falling flat on my face. Why doesn't the Lord deliver me from this horid Heroin?????????

I have been addicted to prescription drugs that I get illegally. I am a wife and mother and a Christian. I go on missions trips to Cornwall/Creation Fest, Austria and wherever God calls me. I serve in the children's ministry at my church Calvary Chapel in Costa Mesa, California. I was helping my uncle with an articles he is writing for iTunes on Christian Music. He is not a christian, so he asked me for help. I read the interview of John James (newsboys was one of the subjects) by Mike Rimmer. It made me realize that I am caught up and running from a lot and not calling upon God to deliver and heal me. No one knows of my addiction and I hide it well. John James story has ministered to me and God is great. Please pray for a radical work of the Lord in my life. He has always used me and wants to use me more. This is a lie that is standing in the way of the truth and my relationship with our Lord, Jesus Christ and knowing Him. Thank you
