Let's consider an in-depth knowledge of temptation from the word of God.
Hebrews 1:13-15 15 When you are tempted to do wrong, do not say, “God is tempting me.” God cannot be tempted. He will never tempt anyone. 14 A man is tempted to do wrong when he lets himself be led by what his bad thoughts tell him to do. 15 When he does what his bad thoughts tell him to do, he sins. When sin completes its work, it brings death.
1 Corinthians 10:13 13 There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.
Genesis 22:1
Some time later God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" "Here I am," he answered.
Matthew 4:7
Jesus replied, "It is also written: 'Do not put the Lord your God to the test.'"
James 1:14
But each one is tempted when by his evil desires he is lured away and enticed.
TEMPTATION... All of us have been there. Satan's silver bullet was designed just for us personally. "No one will ever know, and it won't hurt anyone anyway," a mysterious voice whispered in a way that sounded like our own. Even if those two things were true, which they rarely are, it wouldn't matter because something in us gave in to what we knew was wrong. One way to fight temptation is to remind ourselves that we are not the only ones facing it. Others have faced it and won, so with God's help and the power of the Holy Spirit, we can too.
My Prayer: Most Holy Father, keep temptation out of my heart and sin out of my life. I want to do everything I can to help you. Forgive me for my past sins, and fill me with your Holy Spirit through your grace and your word so I can resist Satan's attempts to pull me away from you. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
May God increase and Bless you
Numbers 6:24-26 NKJV
“The LORD bless you and keep you; The LORD make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; The LORD lift His countenance upon you, And give you peace.” ’
