1 Peter 4:8 ESV Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins.”
51% of quitting is what we now start “To do.” If you quit ______ without love, now you need to join a church that is without love to fit in. Consider praying:
“Father, I will fight this habit, please help me fight it, and fill me with Your love.”
If you make a breakthrough with love, will not God respond? God has millions of Christians who show the world their traditions. That helps only a few people. God has only a few people who show the world “His Great Love.”
Sooner, or later, God starts to empower people who, #1 Go to war with sin, #2 Dig into His Word, and #3 Pray often, and quote scriptures often on love.
Second, consider setting an alarm every 30 minutes to quote a direct quitting scripture like:
Proverbs 20:1 ESV Wine is a mocker, strong drink a brawler, and whoever is led astray by it is not wise.”
Then add your quitting prayer.
Finally, consider switching to this verse on love with every other alarm. I need to increase in love, we need to increase in love. Jesus is love.
