Proverbs 23:29-35 The solution for Alcoholism and Addiction
Proverbs 23:29-35 TPT
[29] Who has anguish? Who has bitter sorrow? Who constantly complains and argues? Who stumbles and falls and hurts himself? Who’s the one with bloodshot eyes? [30] It’s the one who drinks too much and is always looking for a brew. Make sure it’s never you! [31] And don’t be drunk with wine but be known as one who enjoys the company of the lovers of God, [32] for drunkenness brings the sting of a serpent, like the fangs of a viper spreading poison into your soul. [33] It will make you hallucinate, mumble, and speak words that are perverse. [34] You’ll be like a seasick sailor being tossed to and fro, dizzy and out of your mind. [35] You’ll awake only to say, “What hit me? I feel like I’ve been run over by a truck!” Yet off you’ll go, looking for another drink!
- A key point I want to highlight is verse 31 where he says not to get drunk with wine but be known as one who enjoys the company of the lovers of God.
- Lovers of God live in the Light, the enemy works in darkness to bring addiction and other bondages.
- If you are with the other sheep you are not leaving yourself in a vulnerable position for the enemy to bring the temptation for substance abuse.
- Bondage puts a demand on your time, Jesus frees you from all other yokes if you are willing to trade with Him and be one yoked to Him.
