No Temptation

I need to be reminded of this every day of how temptation is defeated. Knowing it and acting as if it is, a different thing.

This is my struggle. My hope is some day I will be more than a conquer in this area. 

God Bless.

1 Corinthians 10:13 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 provide a way out so that you can endure it. As believers, we will be tempted. The idea of temptation relates to how we are attacked or addressed by the world and the forces of evil.

 A thought, a circumstance, words spoken to you; sometimes it doesn't take much to cause us to be tempted. Evil strikes at opportunities that make you feel as though you are powerless to defend. God allows you to be tempted that you may hold strongly to Him and show your faithfulness. You are equipped to stand firm which, in some cases, means to flee from temptation. Feeling the pressure or pull of temptation is not a sin, but following its lead will take you to sin every time.
