Lyrics:
He woke up this morning
To an angel in his bed
There was a devil in the bottle he was holding in his hand
With head still full of whiskey
and his eyes now full of tears
He dusted off a bible that he hadn’t read in years
And he said
I am tired, I am torn
and I can’t take it any more
You see this bottle has been my only friend
But here I am to you my heart to you I give
Oh Father can you take away these tears
She struggles with addiction
She struggles to fit in
She takes too much medication to cover up her tears
One pill to make her happy
Too many make her sad
Then she notices the bible
In the hotel by her bed
She says, “I am weary I am worn”
and I can’t take it any more
You see this bottle has been my only friend
Here I am my heart to you I give
Father can you wash away these sins.
Then the sun came up and the skies turned blue
and the pain they knew was gone
and as the old life died a new life it was born
it was a life they never knew
until they followed you

Such a powerful and heartfelt song. I struggled with addiction and was homeless for over 10 years. But by Gods endless mercy and grace I have over 8 years clean and now he’s using me to help those who are still struggling and stuck in its grips. 🙏❤️🌎

I need help for my boyfriend. He's a really bad alcoholic and can't stop!
He spends all our money on liquor 3-4 times a day. And then gets behind the wheel and drives.
I have prayed and prayed for him to get help. But, AA makes him worse. He really needs Detox. Can anyone there give me anymore advice? I'm about to give up. Because, he is a totally different person when he drinks.
He said, it's because of what hee seen in the War. I understand that. But, he really needs prayer and God to cast these thoughts away for good. Please anyone. Advice is all welcome. Be positive please!!!! Thank you, in advance.
I'm A recovering addict and I found Jesus when I needed him the most in my life 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏... Amen praise the Lord 🙏🙏🙏🤍❤️
We are new creations in christ. Please don't label yourself aa recovering addict.
I had over a 30 year addiction with alcohol and meth. A few year's ago on New Years I fell to my knees and I cried out to God and said I couldn't live like this any longer. So I told God, take away my cravings and addictions and I will serve you for eternity. I got up and threw everything I owned that had to do with drugs and alcohol into the fire and I haven't looked back. My life has forever changed in a good way. Clean over 2 years and sober over year and a half
Congratulations on your new true life in Christ and equally as importantly your sobriety.
That is so inspirational congratulations there is hope
Praise God! I pray the Blood of Jesus Christ over you, the evil one touches you not! Find a church, have fellowship with Believers and most importantly read His Word!
Thank you for sharing, I need the strength, I've asked God to help he's not listening to me I think he made me to struggle im tired ppl are dying around me I died twice once by my own hand and once accidental and he still keeps me here I can't here him , my husband died while I'm at the hospital with my daughter having our grandchild to come home to find my husband dead I've being abused cheated out of most every important event in my childhood life and abused all my life so why am I here my children couldn't give a rats ass about me since my husband passed I javent had one friend or family care to come see me or call me got the government taking all my benefits so what the he'll is the dM point of being here I don't get to see my grandchildren since the first one was born and there's 5 of them from 16 of age and younger last oneDec the 6thjust past so if there's a God he hates me and wants me to struggle for the rest of this life I ha e so if there's help from him I have a better chance getting a bus to hit me , but I'll never ask for a dam thing from him or anyone else so I lost my faith in everything now
@@leahpayette2552 I'm sorry your going through what your going through and what you have already gone through. God doesn't hate you, he loves you just as much today as he does me. You have to help you before you can help anyone else. When was the last time you prayed.
This song is such a blessing. I battled meth addiction for 17 years. Was homeless and ended up in prison. Oh but glory be to God he heard my cry from inside those prison walls. He delivered me of my addiction and now 8 years later I am faithfully serving him. I Own my own business and I am the leader of our mens ministry program at church. Also drive our church bus every Sunday to pick people up. God can turn any thing around if we surrender.
Amen!!!!
GLORRRYYYY 🎉
Please pray for my son
@@mn2638 of Course. God has us all, he will stay by your son's side. God Bless you and yours 🙏🏼✝️❤️
Amen. Amen. Amen. I’m three years sober. God is good all the time. All the time God is good. He has lifted my obsession for the drink and replaced it with love for Him, my fellows, and even...myself. I have been saved from who I was. All glory be to you God! You did for me what I couldn’t do for myself.
I am thankful that God's love was inside you brother!
Amen brother!! 4 1/2 years here.
All the glory to God !!!
Well said. With caps as emphasis, a prayer of surrender to GOD using JESUS CHRIST AS THE MEDIATOR to urge the broken, wounded, empty, desperate and guilty to be mended, healed, filled rescued, and pardoned by HIM.
On a balcony of space STEPPED A PURE AND HOLY GOD. IN AWESOME SOLITUDE YOU STOOD ALONE. Not one faint star to give YOU light; just endless darkness, it was blackest night. But somehow in the darkness YOU COULD SEE.
YOU SAW mountains high and lofty, YOU SAW valleys lush and green. YOU SAW babbling brooks, and wildflowers grow, YOU EVEN HEARD a robin sing. Then through YOUR COMPASSION STANDING OUT THERE IN YOUR TOMORROW, YOU SAW forum's visitors, their families and friends. 🥰
YOU SAW them as sinners (missing the mark resulting in their weaknesses prevailing causing guilt of wrong doing) because there is no intrinsic righteousness in any of us due to Adam’s sin. YOU SAW them as they grew from a baby into adulthood due to YOUR HANDS OF MERCY. 🥰 YOU SAW them pursuing a career path for the purpose of obtaining the gains of the world not realizing that it is a loss compared to what YOU DID on the cross. YOU SAW them working long and laboring hard to receive the grace by justification even though YOU stated, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."(John 6:29 KJV) YOU SAW the unwillingness to accept YOUR PLAN OF SALVATION THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST. YOU SAW them living with the guilt of committing crimes to the heart. YOU SAW them enduring personal crisis. YOU SAW the weight of the burden on their hearts with each tribulation. YOU SAW them seeking comfort from the above mentioned topography, ONE OF THE MANY MARVELS YOUR PERFECT HANDS HAVE MADE. 👏👏👏 YOU SAW their worries about tomorrow.
If their hearts were a window that they could look through, oh the pains and scars they would see. What a cruel fate the skin gives as a mask to the inward pain. But the skin couldn’t cover THE SUFFERING YOUR ONE AND ONLY SON BORED on the cross as PAYMENT for all our sins because HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ALONE HAD THE MERIT TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR HOLINESS. Indeed, ONLY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SUFFICIENT TO SAVE us from this present evil world as evidenced by Mary's song of praise. "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1:46-47 KJV) Awesome thanks to YOUR GREAT PARDON for being easy on the heart. 🥰
They have seen a lot of crazy things done in YOUR NAME. For example, the father of lies futile attempts to make crooked the right ways of the LORD to turn people away from faith in the WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST ALONE. How can anyone bear the thought of his or her life story detracting from the GLORY AND HONOR KNOWN TO BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE? As a consequence, YOU ARE A MYSTERY OF GREAT MYSTERY to them. Despite this conviction, YOU ARE MINDFUL of them as evidenced by the fact that YOUR JUDGEMENT is not speedy, allowing them to pursue the desires of the flesh.
They are aware of hypocrisy in religious assemblies that like to be seen and heard. In addition, secular education teaches that there is no right and wrong, if GOD exists there is no way of relating to HIM, and moral standards shift according to the whims of fashion. Therefore, their minds are conditioned to question everything this world has to offer including “THY POWER THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE DISPLAYED.” They have accepted the heavy burden of dealing with the troubles of this life and seek to know another way, YOU THE GREAT COMFORTER TO ALL who did receive YOU as their personal SAVIOR. Still, YOU have shown them NEW MERCY every day with each thought they make and each breath they take.
Unfortunately, like the prodigal son, we are all guilty of wandering far from YOU LORD because the negative experiences of our lives tend to build roadblocks to the TRUTH. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them to identify the way, truth, and eternal life (that is YOU). Since to know and follow your SPIRIT is more exciting than any 007 movies, and YOU DELIGHT MAKING the ordinary into extraordinary. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST MAKE them understand that there is no way around YOUR TRUTH, and that there is something about YOUR NAME. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them defeat in their minds what is false in YOUR EYES.
LORD GUIDE their thoughts to know that the path of sin is hard on their hearts for the purpose of crying out to YOU to know the joy, peace of having the heavy burden LIFTED by THE GOD OF PEACE I AM, and ANCHOR their souls in THE HAVEN OF REST. In other words, LORD use the storms in their lives to get a hold of them to trust YOU and believe. In truth, YOU ARE THE JOY that seekest them through pain.
LORD HELP their fainting hearts to believe that YOU, who was slain on the cross over 2000 years ago has the POWER TO CHANGE lives today through the INSTANTANEOUS GREAT FAVOR from GOD to the house of Israel made known in believers by YOU to make YOUR NAME EVERLASTING. 🥰 For as the statue liberates the citizens so the cross liberates the soul. ONLY YOU can calm the trouble waters of the mind when one admits to wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, JESUS IS LORD, and believes in the heart that GOD RAISED HIM from the dead TO LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt away from the heart in accordance to YOUR WORD found in Psalm 51:1-10 KJV. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 O, the wonder of it all to experience within the flesh the feeling of a tree being cut back/pruned in order for it to grow stronger and more beautiful after meditating on the words of said Psalm. 🥰🙌
LORD MAKE them know that ONLY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, through the experience of a new birth within believers, can prevent the family circle from being broken because THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE YOU HAVE GRANTED means a chapter of their lives is decided. Creation sings the rebirth song for them yearly, through YOUR PROMISE of springtime, giving rise to the idea that by the mention of YOUR NAME flowers grow, and the desert blooms again. 🥰
LORD GUIDE their understanding of words to use to come into YOUR PRESENCE with an honest reverence of WHO YOU ARE to experience the beauty that time can't erase YOUR WISDOM resting on their faces. LORD STRENGTHEN their determination to never waiver in efforts to search for YOU because the wages of sin is too high for anyone to pay. Additionally, THE KING OF KINGS is needed in their hearts to learn how to expand their capacity to love for YOU are LOVE in any language. 🥰 Once they learn to speak it with boldness through YOUR WONDERFUL COUNSELING all the world will hear, and know that LOVE is the language of their hearts. So LORD, KEEP KNOCKING on their door until they let YOU in to know hardships and struggles will end with a GREAT CELEBRATION WITH YOU. 🥰🙌
If one believes faith cannot be forced, YOU WILL GIVE that individual over to the stubborn heart to follow own counsel which will surely fail him or her to the extent that the punishment will last forever found in Psalms 81 NIV. Given this, I pray that YOU WILL MAKE that person see that this feeling is wasted for a world in which we become strangers as we age, gives us thrills instead of peace, aims to solve a problem but creates another, and unrest surges with each passing generation. Shed some light into their broken hearts for YOU ARE THE GREAT JEHOVAH, THE GOD THAT HEALETH thee.
Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again (repentance manifesting itself in a changed life), I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh.
O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
Shared this with my 73 year old father who is a week sober off of alcohol. I am clean off medication for 8 years this summer. I sat him down and made him listen to this. We have music in common so this song spoke to both of us. God thank you for your grace and mercy. I love you, Father and I am so very thankful that we walk with You. Great song, Zach!
❤
Praise God isn't he great
God Bless you both!
I miss my Dad so much, God called him home but he was my inspiration, my hope, my power of example as he got clean and sober when I was in 4 th grade, he stayed clean and sober through cancer treatments..... God Bless you and your Dad, music is a universal language, one through which my Dad and I also bonded. 🙏🏼✝️❤️🙏🏼
I have dependence on pharmaceuticals due to mental illness. Oh how I long for the day to free from these chemicals. The one thing I can say is after suffering so many years trying to battle it on my own; I’m thankful that God has given me this affliction to soften my heart towards Him and others. He’s given me compassion in the place of bitterness. He’s humbled my heart and gave me hope. The price of laying down my life is such a small price to pay and I’d do it until the end of ages just to be with the greatest love of my life, that is the God who sent his only son Jesus Christ. In His name I pray safety and love, especially to those that are afflicted with mental illness. Amen. God sees you, he sees your heart and He won’t ever quit on you.
I have to take them too.
Was told it was a sin.. (taking these meds)... Tried to cut cold turkey... And I'm a mess. Started them back but I've not been the same. I get intrusive thoughts ... I don't want. I cry a lot now. I get scared Jesus coming and I'll be left because of these thoughts.
@@freyaaldrnari6086 you are a child of god and you have been saved by his blood...I am on methadone and have been for years, I have had back surgery and I was taking close to 50 pain pills a day for a couple year's... I've been to rehab several times but the pain was to much so I thought I was doing a good thing by switching to methadone I no longer use any other drugs...I was addicted to cocaine and meth and a alcoholic, I just can't seem to get past the methadone...I know it has saved my life but I am still department on it and alot of people frown on it ...I am really trying to wing off of it but it is so addictive...there is no worse addiction than an opiate addiction, I tried to quit cold turkey and I was vomiting for over 2 weeks straight and made it 11 months and still felt horrible and hurt all the time, I wanted to die....my point is god knows your heart and we are all sinner's... addiction is a sickness and each addiction is different... stay close to god and keep him first in your life...Don't beat yourself up over this addiction instead take it to god and believe you will be healed and it will happen... mental illness is serious, I don't believe for one second it will keep you from heaven, god knows your heart..if u were to get off your meds and commit suicide or hurt someone then you would be worse off...god judges everyone different so don't worry my friend...it does no good beating yourself up over it... keep praying and believing...get that stigma of being a life long addict out of your head god heals in his time and at a flip of a switch just keep trusting and believing....a good person to listen to is Joel Osteen on podcast or utube...he is a very encouraging pastor and he will put hope in your heart even on those toughest day's.... I've been reading his books and listening to him for about 9 months know and he has really helped me understand and see things a different way....I encourage you to give him a chance and I think it will awnser alot of your questions...I know what you are going through I met several people in rehab and sober living who were suffering with mental illness.... whoever told me you that you would not go to heaven for taking your psychological meds should be ashamed of themselves...god put medicine as well as Dr's on earth, he gave them knowledge to be able to help people like you... people take dianetic meds , blood pressure meds and Al sorts of meds they could not live without, your issues are no different they are just a different type of meds....you did not ask for your mental illness and I know u wish I didn't have it, but u do....you have no choice but to be to take them, and prey to god to take your illness away....he heals some people and some unf5 never get healed and end up dying...I can't awnser the who and why and when but I can tell you to never loose hope... when I prey I feel like a broken record sometimes but I know I will be delivered from my addiction on god's time and until then I must keep my faith and keep 5he enemy at bay because he wants to drag you down and keep you there he wants you to think just as you are right now....I encourage you to let him know otherwise...you Are a child of the most high god...you have his favor in your DNA so don't give Satan the time of day that is what he longs for....keep your head up high no matter what anyone else tells you....the only thing that matters is that god loves you No matter what, so remember that. And remember you are not alone friend....don't ever think you are not worthy of gods love, and don't let this pull you from serving him...the word says come as you are....he would rather have you in church addicted, strung out and in sin than not at all... hopefully your church tells you the same thing and if they don't I think I would start looking for one that does... don't judge your brother, I think that says it all and I think a church should would go by the words they teach...take care and I will prey for you but remember these things and remember you are never alone... take care and God bless you...

This Song Literally Touched Me Because I Am Struggling Within Myself and Fighting Addiction, A Reason Why I Clicked On This Song, Im In Tears. Oh God You Are Love Life And , I Love You God.. Thank You For This Wonderful Song Zack 🤞🥰😍
I got sober in AA. Three years now. I thought that would be impossible. But he I am today a free man. That allowed me to reconnect with God. And not only am I sober today but I’m in love with God and on fire for Jesus and the message of the Good Book and the Big Book. I wish the same for you my sister. One thing I know without doubt is God loves you and wants you to be happy, Joyous, and free. He made you in His image and loves you deeply. Pray honestly and earnestly from your heart to Him: Father please help me.
God doesn’t make too hard term with those that true seek him.
Jesus stepped into my world in 2011 and began to show me the path of repentance. I went to Teen Challenge and the Lord used that ministry to show me the path to freedom. This august is 10 years sober from meth/hard drugs, praise God. The road hasn’t been easy, but through it all, I’ve learned to trust in Jesus. Praying for you this morning. Matthew 7:7

Thank you
I was in a abusive relationship with my kids father.. I ended up leaving him but started meth to numb the pain. I had 2 young children and had a psychosis because of the drugs abuse. I lost my parental right temporarily. But with god I was able to stop using meth. Completely. For 2years now. I remember begging god for help. And he heard me and he helped me. Thru the hurt of losing my children full custody now, which is nonsense with everything I've changed and how far I've made it in the last 2years.., I'm still able to keep my sobriety on. And just started going to college. Building myself a life day by day. So one day I can show my children I did got better so that one day I can be the support they need even if it might only be when they are adult.. god is giving me strength every day and I know I will never go back to my old alcool and meth abuse self.
You got this!!! God is with you and so are the rest of us addicts/alcoholics in recovery ❤️🙏🏼✝️❤️🙏🏼 I was clean and sober for nearly 10 yrs and I relapsed. I thought God gave up on me but He did not! I am back fighting the good fight! You can do this, as others have said, WE DO RECOVER!!!❤️
"I'm no longer a slave to fear I am a child of GOD" You ever have a song stop you dead in your tracks & you just have to stop lingering on to every single word?? This, this my friends is that song for me. Just celebrated 4 years of being free from all mind altering substances on February 20th. My soul was set on fire 🔥 for KING JESUS 🙌🙌 Thank you Zac Williams for all your music and allowing God to use y'all to speak and relate to people like me.
Can relate as evidenced by the following sentences delineating how we use music to deal with pain. The negative influences of this world are designed to make our heart sick through emotional & physical pain resulting in a given person turning to music as one source of comfort to the body. The painful realty of this existence gives rise to the birth of music in two forms, earthly & HEAVENLY. Earthly music speaks to the experiences of this world through the singer-song writer’s eyes. Oftentimes drug use (i.e. alcohol, smokes, marijuana, cocaine, opioids, benzos and propofol to name a few) is intertwined with the survival of an artist to deal with the pressure of performing in order to stay relevant in the music industry, and to serve as fuel for creativity. As a result, music celebrities develop a tendency to sin against their body, through excessive drug use, for not measuring up to or to satisfy the demands of their music. Any earthly joy they experience is darkened by the heavy burden of performing and the loss of privacy.
The end users of their music become fans because the lyrics are relatable and the sound of the singer’s voice & rhythm helps them cope with the pains of this reality. Unfortunately, this band aid approach is only a time out from the hurt and in the meantime we are fortifying its wall with painful memories waiting in line. Who can save us from wounds that are silent, wordless and cruel all the while tearing us apart inch by inch on the inside, which could radically accelerate the demise of the human body? I will use caps as emphasis to show the honest reverence for GOD'S SOVEREIGNTY when writing about HEAVENLY music in the paragraphs below.
That INVINCIBLE DIVINE be our HEAVENLY FATHER, WHO THROUGH HIS SON’S MISSION HAS INSPIRED believers to write songs that sing of HIS LIFE GIVING LOVE to deal with emotional & physical pain, economic instability, mortality and the emotional instability of others with the motive of winning over souls for HIS KINGDOM. The melody & theme of HEAVENLY music is hateful and intolerable to the devil, a spirit which causes us to be blinded of the effects of sin and is responsible for the woes of this world such as melancholy, anguish, tribulation and trial. These agitations of the soul create a heavy burden for the lost and could lead him or her to be hostile of songs that sing about GOD’S GLORY. This makes it clear that we cannot win the spiritual battle by our own strength. Moreover, on earth the devil has no equal.
GOD has provided us with the ONE WHO CAN AND WILL LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt from a given sinner's heart if he or she (through faith) would open their understanding to Psalms (starting with the focus on Psalms 51:1-10 KJV), and hymns/songs giving praise to HIM for the purpose of being persuaded, converted and healed by the HOLY SPIRIT from within by transforming your body/temple into a meeting place for you and the KING OF THE AGES to commune as friends through the born again experience (repentance manifesting itself in a changed life). It is only here that the fears of tomorrow will diminish, the blessed assurance is given that you are HIS and HE LIVES. Once the blessed assurance is known in prayer (through the confession of wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, combine with admitting that JESUS CHRIST is LORD and believing in one’s heart that GOD raised HIM from the dead to deliver us from sin's guilt) the world can never take it away because the world didn’t give it to you.
That was a divine appointment meaning that was the spirit that stopped you and your track not the song the spirit gave you wisdom conviction and discernment to be able to know what it is he needed you to know
Hello Katie how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
If satan reminds you of your past, remind him of his future.

Thank you.
Well said, brother ...
Preach it
There's always a better day, a new season, a new blessing, never give up, God is always there holding your hand, that you cannot see, God bless you from me !
Amen!
How important we put the bible in strategic places! You never know who the Spirit of God could minister to and how that could change a life forever. Awesome song Zach!
Oh thank you, Zach Williams for this. I’m struggling with an alcohol and medication dependence. For me, feeling numb is better than the hurt at the moment. To those who are overcomes, congratulations. To the rest of us who aren’t there yet, let’s pray for strength and for the issues we aren’t dealing with by numbing to hand over to The Lord. Today may or may not be the day. We CAN do it. 🙏🏼🧡
Hello Lauren how are you doing hopefully you are doing good??
Let God's incredible mercy and grace allow you to experience acceptance and forgiveness. By understanding Gods mercy, it will allow you to forgive yourself and walk in his grace. It's powerful to be led by the Holy Spirit, with the Armour of God to redemption. Be strong and courageous. 🙏❤️🙏

Was lost in the wilderness for the first 30 years of my life. Just because you stop using drugs, does not make you cured. Sure that solves the immediate threat, but what those drugs did to my brain, faith, and body was the real killer. Alot of people including myself can be clean and dirty at the same time because we refuse to let God in. When we follow his teachings, we learn truth. Doesn't matter how old you are, God can bring you out the wilderness no matter how long you been held captive there. Amazing Grace, how sweet that is!
God is good and works all things for good for those who love him.
Blessings to you in Jesus precious name. 🙏🙏🙏😀😀😀

I lived this struggle. With God’s help, His Holy Spirit, Jesus lifted me out of it.
Oh thank you Jesus have your way Lord
I never battled with addictions - drinking or drugs - but I'm sure to those who have, this songs rings true. There's saving Grace to be found in a living Savior - halleluiah and amen to those who have found it in the midst of struggles - to those who haven't yet, I pray you will soon. God bless.
Amen.
My son died on July 2 2023. He was 18 I had bought him a dirt bike 2 days prior to his incident. I served in Iraq and Afghanistan and have ptsd so my children grew up with me drinking. Since my son died this is the longest I've been sober from alcohol since his birth. So much regret!
I love reading all these different stories of redemption. It should give hope to every situation. Jesus has the power to break every chain. GOD SEES US EXACTLY WHERE WE ARE. AND LOVES US SO VERY MUCH!
not even a minute through the song and I am already in tears. so powerful. Thank you Zach

This song is exactly what happened to me. I was drunk in a bathroom one night and I asked God to take it from me and he did. I used to go to sleep every night deading to wake up the next day. I hated going to sleep because I hated waking up. Then I found Jesus christ. I woke up and the sky's turned blue like in your song. I found pure joy in christ Thank you for this song! 🥰

My LORD set me free from meth 19 years ago... But I watch my husband still struggle with his alcohol addiction it breaks my heart... I know my Lord can do for him what he has done for me... He was sober for 13 years and relapsed 3 or 4 years ago ... He is a believer, it's just so sad... This song made me cry because it speaks of the power to overcome all it takes is to surrender it all
i pray this song over my husband now in Jesus mighty name

I’ve been sober for 29 days my girlfriend and I lost our child and our home I am torn and tired.but I know our father will carry me through just like foot prints in the sand amen lord
With Christ you can make it one day at a time
When I listen to Zack’s music it’s like God’s speaking to me through him! He tells my life story. How far down I was before I finally surrendered my Will and life to Jesus Christ amen 🙏!! Love you all God Bless merry Christmas ❤
Satin has nothing on the power of God's abilities to heal anything we are suffering from, praise Him for this child of His who continues to deliver, comfort & remind us of Your faithfulness.
Sent this song to my son. After work, he listened to it and spoke deep to him! Praying it changes him!!
Thank you Zack..I needed to hear you sing that song..God bless y'all on your Journey seems to be a great one!! It will be worth all the pain and struggles you know ..he wants us the most..I'm happy he picked me at 62..I sing again..soon I will know his plan for me..love y'all 😇😇
6 years clean and sober by the grace of God to God be the glory and honour completely clean amen to that
I love this song. It also reminds me of myself. Addiction runs deeps in my family and I'm hoping I'm the one to break that cycle. This song is definitely going on my Playlist. ❤
I'm crying I am literally drunk and God is good. Please resist the Devil's temptation at all costs. God is always worth it. I've been drunk too long I know God loves all the time. GOD BLESS.
What a spot on description of the chains of addiction, and affirming the ONLY answer to freedom from the bondage is by God taking it when we ask. I remember my surrender vividly and with a big dose of gratitude listening to this beautiful song. This will help so many who are struggling! You’ve been chosen to deliver God’s message through your gifts and talents. Love everything you guys do! Thank you! Please, come back to Space Coast, FL!
GOD is not the only way but it does help alot of folks
What an awesome song 🙏 God bless ! So many people struggle with addiction . I mixed up some stuff drank alcohol . There is nothing that can deliver and heal you like Jesus! I pray for people that have addictions . To be free ! Amen 🙏
🙏🏻Alleluia!❤
I've been granted a DAILY reprieve from the chains of heroin addiction for almost 18 yrs, (since 11-3-03), by the grace of God! I thank Him every day for helping me stay focused on the GOOD IN LIFE❣

This song really hit my soul hard.....I struggled with alcohol addiction for years and eventually turned to pills and I was at my lowest of lows when I heard chain breaker for the first time.....Zach, between you and God I have come to know myself again. Not the woman behind that whisky bottle or pills......my life has completely changed, I no longer drink, I no longer abuse pills and I'm glad I've found god again. I don't know how I ever lived without him. God had always provided a way for me and my family and I turned my back on him when I should've ran to him instead. Thank you so much for the music you write and the souls you have helped to turn back to god. May he bless you and hold you tight in his arms❤️❤️❤️❤️🦋🦋🦋🦋 love amber Lynn 💞
Yes! He came and got me while i was in my addiction and loved me till it was gone! He saved me from going down to the pit of hell. Ty Abba!💞

EPIC! God Bless Humanity w/God's Grace💜🙏
My name is Robert God made me schizophrenic. I was a lifetime of drug addiction after my dad died when he was 35 from drugs.. I finally quit at 35 and lost my mind seeing n hearing the voice's was so much I begged for it to stop it didn't until I set and prayed to him not for myself but for him. I said to God that I can't imagine what you go through n now I hear one voice at a time God saved me that day now I speak to him I love you God n thank you for this song
Thank you God for delivering us, whatever our struggle may be. You are the way, the truth and the life!
You struggle most when you think no one is watching, but always remember, there are two watching, one that can help through the struggles and one that wants to keep you trapped. Which one will you choose?
Amen
So true.
God
Amen
Well said. With caps as emphasis, a prayer of surrender to GOD using JESUS CHRIST AS THE MEDIATOR to urge the broken, wounded, empty, desperate and guilty to be mended, healed, filled rescued, and pardoned by HIM.
On a balcony of space STEPPED A PURE AND HOLY GOD. IN AWESOME SOLITUDE YOU STOOD ALONE. Not one faint star to give YOU light; just endless darkness, it was blackest night. But somehow in the darkness YOU COULD SEE.
YOU SAW mountains high and lofty, YOU SAW valleys lush and green. YOU SAW babbling brooks, and wildflowers grow, YOU EVEN HEARD a robin sing. Then through YOUR COMPASSION STANDING OUT THERE IN YOUR TOMORROW, YOU SAW forum's visitors, their families and friends. 🥰
YOU SAW them as sinners (missing the mark resulting in their weaknesses prevailing causing guilt of wrong doing) because there is no intrinsic righteousness in any of us due to Adam’s sin. YOU SAW them as they grew from a baby into adulthood due to YOUR HANDS OF MERCY. 🥰 YOU SAW them pursuing a career path for the purpose of obtaining the gains of the world not realizing that it is a loss compared to what YOU DID on the cross. YOU SAW them working long and laboring hard to receive the grace by justification even though YOU stated, "This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent."(John 6:29 KJV) YOU SAW the unwillingness to accept YOUR PLAN OF SALVATION THROUGH YOUR SON JESUS CHRIST. YOU SAW them living with the guilt of committing crimes to the heart. YOU SAW them enduring personal crisis. YOU SAW the weight of the burden on their hearts with each tribulation. YOU SAW them seeking comfort from the above mentioned topography, ONE OF THE MANY MARVELS YOUR PERFECT HANDS HAVE MADE. 👏👏👏 YOU SAW their worries about tomorrow.
If their hearts were a window that they could look through, oh the pains and scars they would see. What a cruel fate the skin gives as a mask to the inward pain. But the skin couldn’t cover THE SUFFERING YOUR ONE AND ONLY SON BORED on the cross as PAYMENT for all our sins because HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS ALONE HAD THE MERIT TO MEET THE REQUIREMENTS OF YOUR HOLINESS. Indeed, ONLY HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS IS SUFFICIENT TO SAVE us from this present evil world as evidenced by Mary's song of praise. "And Mary said, My soul doth magnify the Lord, And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." (Luke 1:46-47 KJV) Awesome thanks to YOUR GREAT PARDON for being easy on the heart. 🥰
They have seen a lot of crazy things done in YOUR NAME. For example, the father of lies futile attempts to make crooked the right ways of the LORD to turn people away from faith in the WORKS OF JESUS CHRIST ALONE. How can anyone bear the thought of his or her life story detracting from the GLORY AND HONOR KNOWN TO BELONG TO CHRIST ALONE? As a consequence, YOU ARE A MYSTERY OF GREAT MYSTERY to them. Despite this conviction, YOU ARE MINDFUL of them as evidenced by the fact that YOUR JUDGEMENT is not speedy, allowing them to pursue the desires of the flesh.
They are aware of hypocrisy in religious assemblies that like to be seen and heard. In addition, secular education teaches that there is no right and wrong, if GOD exists there is no way of relating to HIM, and moral standards shift according to the whims of fashion. Therefore, their minds are conditioned to question everything this world has to offer including “THY POWER THROUGHOUT THE UNIVERSE DISPLAYED.” They have accepted the heavy burden of dealing with the troubles of this life and seek to know another way, YOU THE GREAT COMFORTER TO ALL who did receive YOU as their personal SAVIOR. Still, YOU have shown them NEW MERCY every day with each thought they make and each breath they take.
Unfortunately, like the prodigal son, we are all guilty of wandering far from YOU LORD because the negative experiences of our lives tend to build roadblocks to the TRUTH. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them to identify the way, truth, and eternal life (that is YOU). Since to know and follow your SPIRIT is more exciting than any 007 movies, and YOU DELIGHT MAKING the ordinary into extraordinary. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST MAKE them understand that there is no way around YOUR TRUTH, and that there is something about YOUR NAME. As time marches on, JESUS CHRIST HELP them defeat in their minds what is false in YOUR EYES.
LORD GUIDE their thoughts to know that the path of sin is hard on their hearts for the purpose of crying out to YOU to know the joy, peace of having the heavy burden LIFTED by THE GOD OF PEACE I AM, and ANCHOR their souls in THE HAVEN OF REST. In other words, LORD use the storms in their lives to get a hold of them to trust YOU and believe. In truth, YOU ARE THE JOY that seekest them through pain.
LORD HELP their fainting hearts to believe that YOU, who was slain on the cross over 2000 years ago has the POWER TO CHANGE lives today through the INSTANTANEOUS GREAT FAVOR from GOD to the house of Israel made known in believers by YOU to make YOUR NAME EVERLASTING. 🥰 For as the statue liberates the citizens so the cross liberates the soul. ONLY YOU can calm the trouble waters of the mind when one admits to wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, JESUS IS LORD, and believes in the heart that GOD RAISED HIM from the dead TO LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt away from the heart in accordance to YOUR WORD found in Psalm 51:1-10 KJV. 👏👏👏👏👏👏 O, the wonder of it all to experience within the flesh the feeling of a tree being cut back/pruned in order for it to grow stronger and more beautiful after meditating on the words of said Psalm. 🥰🙌
LORD MAKE them know that ONLY YOUR HOLY SPIRIT, through the experience of a new birth within believers, can prevent the family circle from being broken because THE HOPE OF ETERNAL LIFE YOU HAVE GRANTED means a chapter of their lives is decided. Creation sings the rebirth song for them yearly, through YOUR PROMISE of springtime, giving rise to the idea that by the mention of YOUR NAME flowers grow, and the desert blooms again. 🥰
LORD GUIDE their understanding of words to use to come into YOUR PRESENCE with an honest reverence of WHO YOU ARE to experience the beauty that time can't erase YOUR WISDOM resting on their faces. LORD STRENGTHEN their determination to never waiver in efforts to search for YOU because the wages of sin is too high for anyone to pay. Additionally, THE KING OF KINGS is needed in their hearts to learn how to expand their capacity to love for YOU are LOVE in any language. 🥰 Once they learn to speak it with boldness through YOUR WONDERFUL COUNSELING all the world will hear, and know that LOVE is the language of their hearts. So LORD, KEEP KNOCKING on their door until they let YOU in to know hardships and struggles will end with a GREAT CELEBRATION WITH YOU. 🥰🙌
If one believes faith cannot be forced, YOU WILL GIVE that individual over to the stubborn heart to follow own counsel which will surely fail him or her to the extent that the punishment will last forever found in Psalms 81 NIV. Given this, I pray that YOU WILL MAKE that person see that this feeling is wasted for a world in which we become strangers as we age, gives us thrills instead of peace, aims to solve a problem but creates another, and unrest surges with each passing generation. Shed some light into their broken hearts for YOU ARE THE GREAT JEHOVAH, THE GOD THAT HEALETH thee.
Lastly, LORD when they call on YOU in earnest prayer to come into their hearts to be born again (repentance manifesting itself in a changed life), I pray that YOU WILL GIVE them the blessed assurance of their salvation because nothing breaks YOUR HEART, or tears YOU apart like when they cry from the trials of the devil who comes to slander, falsely accuse, steal, kill & destroy. Only by drawing nearer to YOU LORD will put them on a path to a glorious one way trip winding upward to YOU where pain is not welcome because the heart will never break anymore. For ONLY YOU UNDERSTANDS our tears since YOU LOOK at the heart, while humans look at the flesh.
O LOVE that will not let them go. When they don't have the strength to try, and have cried all they can cry hear their hearts that need YOU more today than yesterday. Many thanks LORD for speaking TRUTH in our lives TO BLESS those who are not offended by THEE. LET YOUR WILL BE DONE because YOUR LOVE ALONE CONQUERS everything by WAITING for them to cease struggling, and finally surrender to YOUR EMBRACE to learn about YOUR LOVE AND PROMISE TO TAKE CARE of your children exquisitely. 🥰 Since... "at thy right hand there are pleasures for evermore"... (Psalms 16:11 KJV), and the nail print for them to know YOU by answering the following question. How did CHRIST LOVE people into a relationship with HIM? 🥰
Thank you Jesus ❤️
First comment ....
Tears of bitter sweet joy I've been there and glory to god on high he has delivered me from that darkness
Thank you Son. You placed a tear in this old man’s eye.
Be kind to me Lord, for I am a sinner.
Lyrics: 👇
He woke up this morning to an angel in his bed
There was a devil in the bottle he was holding in his hand
With head still full of whiskey and his eyes now full of tears
He dusted off a Bible that he hadn't read in years
And he said, "I am tired, I am torn
And I can't take it any more
You see this bottle has been my only friend
But here I am, my heart to You I give
Oh Father, can You take away these tears?"
She struggles with addiction, she struggles to fit in
She takes too much mеdication to cover up her tears
Onе pill to make her happy, too many make her sad
Then she notices the Bible in the hotel by her bed
She says, "I am weary I am worn
And I can't take it any more
You see this bottle has been my only friend
Here I am, my heart to You I give
Oh Father, can You wash away these sins?"
But then the sun came out and the skies turned blue
And the pain they knew was gone
And as the old life died, a new life it was born
Oh, was a life they never knew
Until they followed You
Thanks for posting. Can relate as evidenced by the following sentences delineating how we use music to deal with pain. The negative influences of this world are designed to make our heart sick through emotional & physical pain resulting in a given person turning to music as one source of comfort to the body. The painful realty of this existence gives rise to the birth of music in two forms, earthly & HEAVENLY. Earthly music speaks to the experiences of this world through the singer-song writer’s eyes. Oftentimes drug use (i.e. alcohol, smokes, marijuana, cocaine, opioids, benzos and propofol to name a few) is intertwined with the survival of an artist to deal with the pressure of performing in order to stay relevant in the music industry, and to serve as fuel for creativity. As a result, music celebrities develop a tendency to sin against their body, through excessive drug use, for not measuring up to or to satisfy the demands of their music. Any earthly joy they experience is darkened by the heavy burden of performing and the loss of privacy.
The end users of their music become fans because the lyrics are relatable and the sound of the singer’s voice & rhythm helps them cope with the pains of this reality. Unfortunately, this band aid approach is only a time out from the hurt and in the meantime we are fortifying its wall with painful memories waiting in line. Who can save us from wounds that are silent, wordless and cruel all the while tearing us apart inch by inch on the inside, which could radically accelerate the demise of the human body? I will use caps as emphasis to show the honest reverence for GOD'S SOVEREIGNTY when writing about HEAVENLY music in the paragraphs below.
That INVINCIBLE DIVINE be our HEAVENLY FATHER, WHO THROUGH HIS SON’S MISSION HAS INSPIRED believers to write songs that sing of HIS LIFE GIVING LOVE to deal with emotional & physical pain, economic instability, mortality and the emotional instability of others with the motive of winning over souls for HIS KINGDOM. The melody & theme of HEAVENLY music is hateful and intolerable to the devil, a spirit which causes us to be blinded of the effects of sin and is responsible for the woes of this world such as melancholy, anguish, tribulation and trial. These agitations of the soul create a heavy burden for the lost and could lead him or her to be hostile of songs that sing about GOD’S GLORY. This makes it clear that we cannot win the spiritual battle by our own strength. Moreover, on earth the devil has no equal.
GOD has provided us with the ONE WHO CAN AND WILL LIFT the heavy burden of sin's guilt from a given sinner's heart if he or she (through faith) would open their understanding to Psalms (starting with the focus on Psalms 51:1-10 KJV), and hymns/songs giving praise to HIM for the purpose of being persuaded, converted and healed by the HOLY SPIRIT from within by transforming your body/temple into a meeting place for you and the KING OF THE AGES to commune as friends through the born again experience (repentance manifesting itself in a changed life). It is only here that the fears of tomorrow will diminish, the blessed assurance is given that you are HIS and HE LIVES. Once the blessed assurance is known in prayer (through the confession of wanting salvation from one’s sinful nature, combine with admitting that JESUS CHRIST is LORD and believing in one’s heart that GOD raised HIM from the dead to deliver us from sin's guilt) the world can never take it away because the world didn’t give it to you.
Thank you lord for touching the heart of so many. Pray are so powerful.
6 years clean and sober I'm so thankful for this beautiful crazy life I get to have my children have a sober responsible available faithful loving mother again. Life is good sober. We don't recover. One day at a time. Prayers for those still struggling.

Thank you Jesus
A few years ago I was diagnosed with BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER (BPD)
Everyday I struggle...it's exhausting to fight this battle within myself & how it effects my loved ones... medications and counseling, are helpful but more then anything else-
(music) is my "go to" therapy...
This song is one of my most played, almost everyday I play it and constantly- I remind myself with these lyrics...I am a mother of 6 beautiful children, who are my everything...and for them I'll do anything, continuing to strive to see them grow & thrive!
Sometimes I feel like we don't find music. The Music Finds Us. Today has-been all kinds of strange. I've had signs and feelings of getting back on the path. Walking the line and loving your higher power can put a light inside your dark self. It's real. I hope it sinks in for me. ❤
Please pray for Papa n PJ, he wants to go ahead with the divorce instead of working it out. Thank you. 🕊️
Prayers
Wow. . . I feel that this song will bless, and challenge, many. Thank you!
