The devil uses addictions to keep us Chained in bondage.

GOD – Jesus -Holy Spirit = Love, Peace, Happiness, Free Will
The first step to overcoming any addiction is to cry out to Jesus to save you. The flesh is weak and only Jesus can give us the strength to overcome them.
Prayer is the only thing that can break the chains of bondage from addiction.

• GOD is in control which is the best thing ever once you realize to let go of control
