The Trap of Addictions

Satan's plans is all centered of removing our freedom. There habits and drugs that when are done can hijack the brain and take away our freedom. We come dependent on it, and is seems that we cant live without its. Our life is consumed in that habit its all matters to met that appite of the addiction. This is sad all to common in the world.

Before the world was God has prepared a way for you and me to over come all and any addiction. No matter how far down the path you have gone. There is still hop and you. Like salmon swimming up river, its takes lots of  work and effort and you might fall backward once or twice. But  i promise if you give it your hardest and turn to the lord you can get free. Medical research describes addiction as “a disease of the brain.” 4 This is true, but I believe that once Satan has someone in his grasp, it also becomes a disease of the spirit. But no matter what addictive cycle one is caught in, there is always hope.

If anyone who is addicted has a desire to overcome, then there is a way to spiritual freedom—a way to escape from bondage—a way that is proven. It begins with prayer—sincere, fervent, and constant communication with the Creator of our spirits and bodies, our Heavenly Father. It is the same principle in breaking a bad habit or repenting from sin of any kind. The formula for having our heart, our body, our mind, and our spirit transformed is found in the scriptures.

In my life i have had to fight to get free from addiction. At first i tought is was impossible and want to i give up to Satan and the addiction. But i had repeatedly been taught that all can repent no matter how far down the path. So i began a daily battle against the addictive wants. I prayed like no other and over time it got easier. The addiction is still there in back of my mind but i know that i have repented and God has forgiven me.  We all can experience this. Pray is the first and most powerful step.
