Christian Addiction
What is a Christian intervention? A Christian intervention is an orchestrated attempt by one, or often many, (usually family and friends) to get someone to seek professional help with their drug addiction.
The sole purpose of the intervention is to offer a solution and program of drug intervention and Christian based recovery for those afflicted with addiction.
The ultimate goal of a drug intervention is to enable the addict to escape from their seemingly hopeless addiction and to move back into the world in a close walk with Christ.
The Hopelessness of Drug Addiction Drug Addiction is a tremendously powerful affliction.
It grips it's victims in such a way that even when they are not on drugs, they are constantly thinking about drugs.
They suffer from a mental obsession.
Hence, just quitting the drugs alone is not sufficient to overcome the addiction.
The large majority of drug addicts have sobered up for brief periods of time in the past, only to slip back into using again shortly afterward.
This is the baffling and hopeless condition of drug addiction.
Is There a Chance for Recovery? The short answer to this question is YES.
However, the recovery process itself is not as simple as the one word answer implies.
As stated above, drug addiction is extremely powerful.
In reality, the only known permanent and satisfying solution to this illness has been a spiritual experience.
We believers would know that spiritual experience as being born again.
It means an entire willingness on the addict's part to take a fresh start and allow the power of Jesus to work in their life.
If this takes place, then the addict's chance for recovery is very high.
So What is Your Next Step? The next step on your part would be to find a Christian intervention team to help you interrupt your loved one's drug use.
The purpose of this process is to attempt to persuade the addict to accept help.
If the Christian intervention team is effective, they will be able to aid the addict in making the best choice possible.
Now that you are armed with this information, I would encourage you to seek the guidance you will need in this process.
The first thing to do would be to pray.
Ask God for help.
The next step would be to take action and start seeking a Christian intervention team to work with.
Good luck and God bless!
