Temptation

[Daily verse and quote]

“The only temptation that has come to you is that which everyone has.

But you can trust God, who will not permit you to be tempted more than you can stand.

But when you are tempted, he will also give you a way to escape

so that you will be able to stand it.”

1 Corinthians 10:13

 

Temptation is natural. Temptation is not sin. 

It is yielding to temptation that is sin. 

God never brings temptation to us. 

He allows it to test us.

[Billy Graham]

Naturally, God Speaks

TEMPTATION 

LUKE 22:40  and when I was at the place  HE  said unto them --PRAY  THAT  YOU  ENTER  NOT  INTO  TEMPTATION--

--22:46-- and he said unto them why sleep you --RISE  AND  PRAY-- LEST  YOU  ENTER  INTO  TEMPTATION --

JAMES 1:12  blessed is the man that --ENDURETH  TEMPTATION-- for when he is tried he shall receive the crown of life which  THE  LORD  hath  promised to them that -- LOVE  HIM--

 

REVELATION 3:10  BECAUSE  THOU  HAST  KEPT  THE  WORD  OF  MY  PATIENCE  I ALSO  WILL  KEEP  THEE  FROM  THE  HOUR  OF  TEMPTATION  WHICH  SHALL  COME  UPON  ALL  THE  WORLD  TO  TRY  THEM  THAT  DWELL  UPON  THE  EARTH 

 

JAMES 1:14  but every man is tempted when he is drawn away of --HIS  OWN  LUST-- and enticed 

--1:15-- THEN  WHEN  LUST  HATH  CONCEIVED  IT  BRINGETH  FORTH  SIN  AND  SIN  WHEN  IT  IS  FINISHED  BRINGETH  FORTH  DEATH

--1:16--  DO  NOT  ERR  MY  BELOVED  BRETHREN

 

LOVING  THE  LORD  JESUS  CHRIST

When we face temptation, it is like standing in the middle of a forest fire. Danger beckons from all sides. The problem is that the fire may look inviting. God always provides a way out for those who believe in Him.
