Overcoming
Addictions

Addictions are an epidemic in the church and the world right now. From illegal drugs to shopping to digital technology—addictions can be anything we cannot stop as an act of our own will. They are things that we turn to instead of God to try to disassociate from the real problem. They are anything we use to continually attempt to soothe or comfort ourselves rather than resolve the source of pain. But with God’s help, we can walk out of bondage to addictions and into freedom.

What does the Bible say about addictions?

Colossions 3:2 KJV says: Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. Whatever we set our affection on is our addiction. Are we addicted to things upon the earth, or are we addicted to heavenly things from above? Whatever our hearts focus on in our life is our addiction. The only thing we should be addicted to is God.

What causes addictions? 

The need to be loved is built within us from creation. But when relationship breakdowns occur, sometimes we do not feel properly loved. When we have no love, we have no peace. So we may begin to look for all kinds of ways to try to satisfy this need—when, in reality, only God can be our source of love!

Can we be delivered from addictions?

The first principle of getting an addict free is love. As we learn to accept our place as sons and daughters of God, learn His love, and receive His love—this keeps us from addictions. We also can pray for creative miracles, as a work of the Holy Spirit, to deal with the biological and genetic factors which may have been inherited. As we put on the new man and renew our minds in the knowledge of God, we can be free from addictions!

And have put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him: Colossians 3:10 KJV

The big questions are:

What is the root cause of addictions?

Can we be delivered from addictions?

How do we become free from addictions?

We want to help you answer these questions and find real solutions for your life.

Here’s how Be in Health can help you overcome:

At Be in Health, we help people identify and overcome the spiritual root causes of addictions with amazing results of deliverance and freedom in their spirit, soul, and body.

The medical community has known for years about the mind-body connection (how our thoughts affect our body), but what they don’t understand is the spirit, soul, body connection that is defined in the Word of God. This means we are a spirit, we have a soul (or mind), and we live in a body. What is so often overlooked or misunderstood is the connection between these three major parts of our being.

Through the various classes and resources that we offer, we can help recover you back to the way that God designed you. This isn’t just a journey of physical healing; God wants you to be whole in your entire being: in your spirit, soul, and body. This happens through identifying thought processes and life perspectives—how you view yourself, the world around you, and God. Countless people have been healed and set free when their minds and spirits were renewed.
