"I went to the Lord Jesus and asked Him to help me stop."
After trying to stop smoking for three years I finally did what I
should
have done in the first place. I went to the Lord Jesus and asked Him to
help
me stop. I told Him I would try stopping again the next morning. The
next
day came and I went to work as usual and didn't even think of it. It
was
like I had never smoked. I had smoked for 22 years. I haven't smoked
for
20 years now.—Connie

I got
down on
my knees one
day, and confessed to my new found God that I was weak, helpless and
just
plain stupid. I needed to quit smoking but I couldn't. Would my new
friend
Jesus please help me? Please? I just can't do it, I said, please help
me
or I will die before I am even certain of my salvation. That thought
made
me sit there and cry.
Hey, I would tell you about the big, fiery miracle that Jesus whammied
onto
my head, with the lightning and the voice from heaven that knocked me
down
and made me shake, but it just ain't so. It was far more impressive
than
that could ever be. I simply never wanted another cigarette. Ever. Not
once.
To this day -- and it's been about 4 years now.
Not that I fought temptation and never gave in, you understand.
Remember,
I tried that and failed miserably. I have never wanted to smoke another
cigarette.
If you have ever smoked, you have some idea of the mercy and true love
behind
such a miracle. There was no kinder or more impressive thing that my
Lord
Jesus - my new best friend - could have done for me.

"I smoked
for
many years
and after failing time and time again to stop smoking by myself, I
decided
to turn it over to Jesus. I wanted to be free from this bad habit so I
bound
Satan in the name of Jesus and commanded him to depart from me and then
asked
Jesus to deliver me from smoking. I made a vow to God that I would
never
put another cigarette to my lips. I immediately started to thank and
praise
Jesus for answering my prayer and do you know what? Instantly all
cravings
for nicotine left, I felt like I received a new pair of lungs. That was
13
years ago and I have not had a craving for a cigarette since nor gained
any
weight. Put your faith into action, try Jesus, He works, praise God!"
Ask God To Deliver You From Smoking By Praying The Following Prayer:
Almighty God, in the name of Jesus I come to you in prayer. Your word
tells
me that I am free from Satan's bondage, for whom Jesus has set free is
free
indeed. Lord for years I have been in bondage to cigarettes, nicotine
and
smoking, doing harm to my body, which is now your temple. I place on
your
alter this bad habit and addiction. In the name of Jesus Christ of
Nazareth
I command you spirit of addiction and bad habit to depart from me and
enter
me no more. I will not take up eating as a substitute; therefore I will
not
gain weight, for I am completely free from this bondage. Praise God!
Thank
you Lord for my deliverance to your glory and honor forevermore. Amen.

“I wanted
desperately to
quit this habit, but nothing seemed to work. I would tear up my
cigarettes,
then buy more. I would mash each cigarette as I said, “I hate you, I
hate
you.” but then I would go out and buy more packs. My parents also
smoked,
which added to the difficulty of quitting. I even prayed to quit, but
kept
going back to my destructive habit.
“One January morning I was sitting outside a newspaper station in
Jacksonville,
Florida, at 4 in the morning waiting for the papers to arrive so I
could
begin my delivery route. I was so burdened to quit smoking, and I was
also
keenly aware of my inadequacy to do it. From the depths of my being, I
literally
yelled, ‘God, take these cigarettes out of me!’
With gratefulness to God, I can honestly say that I have not touched a
cigarette since that day—over 60 years ago.”

Dear Ferd,
I just read your section on Healing. I have tried to quit smoking for a
long
time now and have been unable to ... until now. I prayed the prayer at
the
end and when I did I felt the power of God lifting away my need for the
cigarettes.
I want to thank you because you helped me realize that my problem was
doubt
and that means I did not have faith in God's promises. I know now that
I
will never smoke again. I also know now that healing includes spiritual
healing
as well as physical healing. God gives us the power to truly rid
ourselves
of the devil and his evil influence over our lives. Thank you for this
web
site. It has been a blessing to me. Thank you Jesus for your healing.

I quit
smoking.
I stopped
going to the pornographic movies, and I was delivered from all my
addictions.
God really changed my life. During my military duty, I tried quitting
smoking,
but I couldn't succeed. Now my life was filled with joy, and I knew the
changes
I had in my life was a result of His miracle. After this I prayed to
Jesus
and asked Him to be the Savior of my life, and I gave thanks to him for
bringing
love into my life, and dying on the cross for my sins.

Jesus
came into
my life
and gave me a new resurrected soul because I was spiritually dead, just
like
Lazarus, and since that day I have no desire for the party life. I quit
smoking
cigarettes and I quit drinking. I have a strong desire to know God's
Word
and to serve him however I can and to not sin. The flesh lusts
against
the spirit and that will go on till I die or Jesus comes back as it
will
for all His people.

I tried
hard -
most of the
time -but I just couldn't do it. I would buy a package and tell myself
that
I was going to break them in half and smoke a half a cigarette a day
and
that's it, and when the package was gone I wouldn't buy another one. Or
I
would buy a pack, just have one and throw the pack in the trash. Then
later
when I couldn't stand it I would dig in the trash and get them out,
smoke
one and throw them away again. And dig in the trash again..........
Finally one night when I was badly needing a cigarette and trying hard
not
to go out to the trash can (my friend had been here) I talked to the
Lord
and told Him, crying, that I just couldn't do it. I was sorry but I
just
couldn't. ............From that point on I had no desire for
cigarettes!
It was as if He said "No, you can't but I can!"
Thank you Jesus!!!!!!!

Lord,
teach us
to pray!
Many years ago, a woman would come to us and ask for prayer that she
could
stop smoking. I think everybody in Omaha had prayed for this
woman
to stop smoking, but she kept smoking and smoking, and yet she was
always
asking for prayer. Priests would pray, special prayer teams would
pray,
but she still kept smoking. She couldn’t break the habit.
One
night we were at a prayer meeting and a young man whom we had never
seen
before was there and he just kind of glowed with the presence of
God.
Everybody noticed. He was just passing through. Who
knows—maybe
he was an angel! After the prayer meeting was over, everyone made
a
beeline to this young man for prayer because there was something
special
about him.
I was standing in line for prayer and right in front of me was this
woman
who wanted to stop smoking. I thought, “Oh, I know what she’s
going
to ask for. We’ve heard it for a year.” I couldn’t
help
but overhear because I was the next one in line and when it was her
turn,
he said, “What would you like prayer for?” She said, “To stop
smoking.”
He paused for a moment and I realized he was checking something out
with
the Lord. Then he said to her, “Do you want to stop
smoking?”
I kind of muttered to the Lord silently, “Of course she wants to stop
smoking.
She’s been asking all of us for a year to stop smoking.” Well the
young
man waited for her reply and there was this silence. I thought,
“Isn’t
this strange? She’s not answering him.” We waited some more
and
then I could see the struggle going on within her. Finally she
said,
“No, I really don’t want to stop. I should quit for health
reasons,
but I really don’t want to stop.” So then he said, “Let’s pray
for
the desire for you to want to stop.”
The prayer that needed to be prayed was “Lord, please give her
the
desire to quit.” So this young man prayed that she would get that
desire
to quit smoking and the desire for her will to be one with God’s
desire,
and that she would be able to quit smoking without any problem.
