My name is Vanj, and I’m reaching out with a sincere heart, asking for your prayers during one of the most difficult times of my life. I have been struggling with online gambling addiction—a battle I’ve been silently fighting since last year. Just recently, I relapsed and used my credit card again. I am feeling helpless and trapped in the win/lose cycle because I am trying to win back and pay some of my debts, but falling into the trap of gaining more debts. The guilt and shame have been overwhelming, and I know I can no longer face this on my own.
I’m asking for your prayers in the following areas:
Repentance – That I may fully turn away from this addiction and return wholeheartedly to the Lord.
Healing – Emotional and spiritual healing from the pain, regret, and anxiety caused by this habit.
Strength – To overcome temptation and break free from this destructive cycle.
Wisdom – To make wise decisions as I repair the damage caused—especially financial—as to only trust the Lord as my Provider.
Peace and Restoration – That my heart and mind may be restored, and that I may walk again in the joy of the Lord.
This addiction has made me feel unworthy at times, but I know God is merciful. I’m clinging to His promise in 1 John 1:9: “If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.”
Please stand with me in prayer. I want to heal, rebuild my life, and be restored in my relationship with the Lord. I truly believe your prayers will make a difference.
With humility and hope,
Vanj
