I Prayed have prayed
Lord thank you for this program designed to help so many with addiction problems. We pray they would be set free.

For the nearly 20 million Americans battling substance abuse today, the Trump Administration just launched a new website, FindTreatment.gov, designed to help locate the best treatment options tailored to each person’s particular situation and needs.

Despite its importance, finding the best treatment option for those who need it most hasn’t always been easy. This new website scraps the failed one-size-fits-all approach that Washington too often favors, adopting best practices from outside of government to avoid the usual bureaucratic mess and muddle that can plague public projects.

Now, it’s easier than ever to learn about the full range of resources available, from understanding payment and insurance options to locating the right treatment program among the more than 13,000 state-licensed facilities across the country.

America’s opioid epidemic is one of the signature issues President Donald J. Trump identified for his Administration to tackle from day one. Before he took office, nearly 64,000 Americans had died from a drug overdose in 2016 alone. Opioid overdoses accounted for more than 42,000 of those deaths—more than any previous year on record.

Today, that crisis shows signs of fading. The United States saw a 5.1% decline in overdose deaths in 2018, including 24% and 17% drops respectively in the hard-hit states of Ohio and Kentucky. Today’s launch will aim to improve those figures even more.

“We designed it with human-centered principles in mind,” White House Counselor Kellyanne Conway said. “We used real words for real people.”

Father,
We know that You have created each of us in the image of God. The enemy in his hate continually attacks, mars and attempts to bury that image. We grieve for the marred image within your creation. We ask for your mercy to be extended to these who wrestle with addiction. We proclaim that Your “works are perfect and all (Your) ways are just.” We speak to whatever seed of the Word of God which may have been planted in these throughout their life to begin to bud and blossom and come to full fruition in their lives. Your Word does not return void. As Jesus said that the Holy Spirit will bring to remembrance all that He has spoken, we come into agreement that ears, hearts, minds and spirits are open to receive those remembrances from your Spirit. Confusion and lies must go in Jesus’s name.

    Such a beautiful prayer!
    I come in complete agreement that God will use His Word in mighty ways to deliver people from addiction.

    LORD, I also ask that You bless this tool created by the Trump administration to guide addicts to the best treatment plan for each person. Please cause this website to be widely known and used.
    Jesus came to set the captives free so we ask all this in His Holy Name. Amen.

    Judy-I love this prayer!!! I come in agreement Lord with this prayer and also Rochelles prayer. Lord, please have mercy on all addicts and do not deal with them according to their folly but hear our prayers for them. (Job 42:8) Help them (and others) to see them the way YOU see them and help them to know that no matter what they have done in their lives, that you see them as so very valuable. Help them to know that there is hope and help them to stop running from you and to surrender themselves TO you. We ask you to destroy all demonic strongholds in their lives and in their bloodlines. We pray all of these things in Jesus name. Amen.
