PRAYER TO REDUCE OR STOP DRINKING ALCOHOL
(This prayer must be
recited on nine consecutive
days.)
Behold me, O my God, at thy feet!
I do not deserve mercy, but O, my Redeemer, the blood which
thou hast shed for me encourages me and obliges me to hope for it.
How often have
I offended thee, repented, and yet have I again fallen and
been drinking (too much/got drunk) again.
O my God, I wish to amend, and in order to be faithful to
thee, I will place all my confidence in thee. I will, whenever I am tempted,
instantly have recourse to thee.
Hitherto, I have trusted in my own promises and resolutions
and have neglected to recommend myself to thee in my temptations. This has been
the cause of my repeated failures.
From this day forward, be thou, O Lord, my strength, and
thus shall I be able to do all things, for “I can do all things in Him who
strengtheneth me”.
Amen.
