    Today is day 27 for me. The ONLY way I have been able to do this is with the help of my Lord and Savior...Jesus Christ. I love and thank him every day.

    Default Let us pray for one for another! Yes, it is hard! But God is greater than our struggles!! PTL!!




    I am sure that each of you smoke-free winners quit several times before you became a winner!
    And you are still winners because of our Lord Jesus Christ Who said " Greater is He that is in you than he that is in the world!

    I want us all to think about how powerful mighty and wonderful Jesus our God is!!

    Feel free to share!



    God cares,
    God loves you,
    God is not the one who is making you feel unworthy, guilty,shameful!

    NO NO He came to give you life and and life more abundant!!

    Default It is okay to fall...but please get up! The Lord God will hold your hand through it all...

    and you will be a full-time winner!!

    that you will ask us to pray for you!
    that you will come here to praise the Lord for helping you to be a winner!

    Feel free winners to share when you had fallen and gotten up again like

    Heather Dorniden who fell at her 600 meter race and got up to continue to win
    and was the winner!!
    She gives the Lord Jesus all of the credit!

    Let us hear from you!

    Default God loves you before you were born!! Praise the Lord!!



    Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)

    And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:



    Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.

    Hebrews 10:23-25


    I want us all to focus on Who God is!!

    God is love!
    God cares about you!
    God is your Helper!
    God is full of grace and truth!

    I am thinking about these words: love, forgiveness, praying, enduring, hold fast
    praying and loving one another.


    Feel free to share what this verse says to you!

    I would love to hear what God is saying to you!

    Have a wonderful 4th of July!

    Let us not forget what freedom means to you!

    Don't forget our Christian brothers who were stoned in the USA ( Dearborn, MI) and are being persecuted, and suffering for Christ's sake!!

    I quit in early 2010, and after 2 years, I started struggling with this again
    A lot of changes going on in my life (not exactly bad ones just a lot of uprooting)
    I keep thinking it's gonna relieve some of my periodic stress
    but I know that's a lie, it will just make me want to rely on it more and more

    Prayers would be much appreciated
    I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
    For the LORD God is a sun and shield; the LORD bestows favor and honor;
    no good thing does He withhold from those whose walk is blameless.

    Psalm 84:10-11

    I still smoke at the moment but am wanting to give up. I've stopped a few times in the past - last time was the longest - but then I unfortunately fell into the wrong company and started again.

    Next week, Lord willing, I am going to try a nicotine inhalator. I will keep you all posted of my progress for as long as we're still here. Wish me luck

    We want to welcome me me!

    We will sure be praying for you and will add you to our prayer list!

    Yes, please keep us posted on how you are doing!!

    I would like to encourage all of us to spend extra time in prayer and
    reading the Bible.
    Use your idle time in praying for victory nicotine and reading and memorize
    Bible verses.


    God is loving, understanding, gentle and at the same time He is all powerful,
    almighty and He can do anything...even what we would say would be impossible!!

    Yay! Praise the Lord! Winners in Christ!! Without Him I can do nothing!!

    Let us take time to pray for one another!

    Praise the Lord for those who have gotten the victory over nicotine.


    Remember:

    It is NOT a sin to be tempted... only to YIELD to it!

    Do we really believe that God can help us every time we are tempted?



    I want to hear from you all who have quit the habit and how you are dealing with the temptation to yield to those urges to continue the habit.

    Hi all,

    Got some nicotine chewing gum at the weekend (was originally going to get an inhalator/false cigarette pack, but opted for this instead). Smoked a few of my left-over cigarettes from the previous week on Saturday and Sunday.

    As of today, Monday 30th, I have not smoked any cigarettes and also thrown my lighters, ashtray and the cigarettes I had left away, leaving just the chewing gum for me to rely on for nicotine. I have not used any chewing gum today but may do tomorrow. I am absolutely determined to give up smoking this time for good, please pray that I do it and never go back. God bless all the ex-smokers on here who have given up for good and may He help everyone else who is trying.

    Damien

    Default COULD WE ALL TAKE TIME TO PRAY FOR ON THE PRAYER LIST? Yes, is my answer!

    That is so awesome, me me!




    me me is moving in the right direction!!
    We want to congratulate you for first of all being motivated ( moving)!!
    And you are moving in the right direction!!

    Let us hear how you are doing me me!!


    Just a thought to leave with you all!

    It would be better to try and fail instead of not trying at all!
    And if and when you fail.... get up and try again!
    Leaning on the Almighty Strength from the Lord!

    I know that you can do all things through Christ Who will be with you during your complete struggle!

    Last Monday 30th I was going to use the nicotine chewing gum but decided not to. I have not used them at all since then, nor have I smoked any cigarettes. So far I have been completely cigarette and nicotine-free since Sunday and am now not going to bother with the chewing gum at all and throw it away. Today is day 6 for me. I know it's only early days but I know with Christ's help I can do it. Will post my latest progress again this time next week.

    Praise the Lord !
