Romans 13:13 (NKJV) 13 Let us walk properly, as in the day, not in revelry and drunkenness, not in lewdness and lust, not in strife and envy.
Drunkenness. It’s something that God frowns upon, yet it’s also something that is a major problem for millions of people.
Some might call it a disease. Others might call it an addiction. And while there may be little pieces of truth in either of those terms, the Bible is very clear with God’s definition.
Now, this is not to throw stones at anyone. But the truth can set us free, if we will embrace it. And the truth is that God considers drunkenness a sin.
Drunkenness is something that many, many people from all walks of life engage in. It’s not limited to unbelievers. Believers also take part in this.
After a while, being drunk can become a habit. And, if we’re not careful, it will become a way of life.
Drunkenness can lead to many other problems; relationship problems, loss of employment, impaired judgment, alcohol-related diseases and, if not stopped, it can kill us.
Death by alcohol isn’t pretty or pleasant. It eats a person away slowly, one little piece at a time. It is not something that we want to see anyone go through.
If you engage in or struggle with drunkenness, take whatever steps are necessary to get help and stop.
It may require medical help. It may require addiction counseling. It may even require deliverance.
It all starts with recognizing that you’re in bondage to it, and then making a choice to stop. And from there, everyone’s journey is different.
And though the journey to freedom might be different for everyone, one thing is sure. The name of Jesus can set you free.
So, we encourage you today, get whatever help you need. Repent before God and ask Him to help you. If you’re serious about getting free, He can help you.
