“There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.”
1 Corinthians 10:13 (KJV)
Lord, today is my first day sober. I am scared and I feel the pull already. I cannot do this on my own strength, so I am asking for Yours.
Give me strength for this hour. When cravings come, help me reach out, call someone, go to a meeting, take a walk, pray. Put the right people in my path today.
There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able. Show me the way of escape when I need it.
Forgive me for the past and help me forgive myself. Let me believe that a new life is possible.
Thank You for this one day. Help me get through it. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Short prayer to remember
Lord, give me strength for this one hour. Show me the way out of temptation. Amen.
