GOD'S PROMISES - ADDICTION

Addictions come in all forms, some are easy to spot and others not so much. 

You get a raise and see some things you always wanted to buy, you are finally able to afford them so you treat yourself. The next thing you know every week you are shopping most of your paycheck away. This may not seem like an addiction but in a sense it is. You are so addicted to the thrill of being able to afford to shop that you are continually spending money without building a savings for the future. This is an addiction that may be hard to spot.

You try drugs for the first time. You like the feeling so you keep using them. After a while you realize that you need more to help you achieve that good feeling. You know what you are doing is harmful to your body, not to mention your bank account, but you just can't stop trying to achieve that good feeling. This is an addiction that is easy to spot.

No matter what type of addiction you or your loved one may be facing, God can heal them all. Pray for yourself and others that may be dealing with various types of addictions that they may or may not be aware of.  God can heal every addiction!
