Fight Temptation
When people are tempted, they should not say, "God is tempting me." Evil cannot tempt God and God himself does not tempt any one.
JAMES 1:13 NCV
God does not tempt us. When we feel the urge to compromise, it is never from God. He is the embodiment of truth, and there is no shadow or falsehood in him. He does not lie, and he does not shame or trick us. He isn't waiting for us to mess up, and he isn't keeping a record of how many times we fail.
God readily gives you strength to resist temptation. He is eager for you to lean on him when your biggest weakness threaten to overwhelm you. He has already equipped you with the power of the Holy Spirit and the Word. Fill your heart with truth, and it will come to mind when you need it most. Go into the battles of life expectant that God will fight with you and for you.
Father, I don't want to blame you, for the things are not from you. Help me discern your will and give me strength to fight temptation. When I am weak, remind me of the truth.
🙏 Amen 🙏
