CLEARWATER, Fla., March 23, 2015 /Christian Newswire/ -- The 25th Annual "Just Pray NO!" Worldwide Weekend of Prayer and Fasting for the addicted and their families is scheduled for April 11 - 12, 2015.
Since April 7, 1991 "Just Pray NO!" has united Christians from around the world in intercessory prayer on behalf of those bound by alcoholism, drug addiction and other life controlling compulsions. Not only is substance abuse America's number one health problem, the devastation of alcoholism and other drug addiction has impacted families and communities worldwide.
Prescription drugs are now killing far more people than illegal drugs, and while most major causes of preventable deaths are declining, those from prescription drug use are on the rise. The "Just Pray NO!' 2015 prayer focus is, "Setting People Free from Prescription Drug Addiction."
Anxiety medications and painkilling opioids not only have harmful side effects, but they can cause physiological and psychological dependence.
Drug abuse is not just a physical addiction or a biological or chemical problem -- it is a spiritual stronghold. Psychotropic drug dependency becomes a powerful, demonic stronghold.
"For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places." – Ephesians 6:12
Make a formal commitment to join with believers in Christ from around the globe this coming April. Put on the full armor of God and fervently pray in spirit and in truth. We are seeking to enlist millions of prayer warriors from around the world to join us in battle.
