Escaping temptation

1 Cor. 10

One of the key scriptures for all Christians to employ in their arsenal of spiritual weapons is v. 13 of this chapter … “No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also (ALWAYS) provide a way out so that you can endure it.

Temptation is going to happen. What we do with it is key. Just knowing that God has given us tools to overcome it means we can live in total victory.

Realize this! Jesus Himself was tempted in EVERY POINT. [Heb. 4:15] So, when you are tempted, Christ knows exactly how you feel. In fact, He’s right there with you making grace and strength available to you so can resist and escape.
