I and four of my church leaders have prayed for a women that we all love very much and she is a big drinker.. a couple of weeks ago we prayed healing be done and we also pray that she would make this her last time drinking by drinking til she was sick.. Well prayer was successful sick for a week and she has been coming back to church and bible study praise God.. But now in discussion at bible study about prayer and different religions, she jump up yelling, just not right..Saying I dont believe this and dont want any part of it.. just out of no where.. Any way I have recieved a phone call heads up; she is going to ask me what right did I have praying that kind of prayer and how is it in line with the word of God..Just so happens the bible study was on "The will of God in prayer" ...she didnt get.. I want to be in the will of God and is there any Scriptures in His word that can help me...:study: God Bless,T

She's obviously under a lot of stress. Wait a little until she is calm. Then have her realize the severity of the sins that she has committed (not necessarily drinking). And she should turn to Christ and away from booze.Remember, the trick is not to take her away from booze, but to make her realize that she is a bad person from everyday sin. Open her eyes to the reality of the Judgment day, and make her fear God. She shall then look for Christ and become born again. After that, things like drinking to get drunk would be unfavorable to her. God Bless and Good Luck.
