Prayer for Alcohol Deliverance I am 70 and have been drinking alcohol since I was 15. My normal routine: 5 glasses of wine and 2 or 3 cocktails, every night, without fail. If I was out at a restaurant, I might drink a little less. In 2010, my younger sister died on her kitchen floor, a wine bottle at her feet. She had terminal cirrhosis of the liver.
