God is love
(1John 4:8). And God is faithful.
Have you ever been tempted to do what’s wrong or what violates your values? I have been there. And I can assure you that you will never get to a place in your life where you won’t be tempted any more. Talk about the zenith of maturity and spirituality, that’s Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God. He was without sin, and in Him was no sin. Yet He was tempted of the devil. Temptation isn’t a sign of weakness. Rather, it means that devil hates you and is afraid of your spiritual progress and growth.
Temptation isn’t sin.
It becomes sin when we yield or give in to it. However, our strongest assurance in the face of trials is the fact that God is faithful. He is reliable. He is worthy of trust. He can never violate His compassionate nature nor His Word. And He promises to ensure that you overcome.
Are you going through something tough? Know these facts:
1. You’re not alone. Others have trodden that path before you. It’s not peculiar to you.
2. God is faithful. He will not allow you to be tempted beyond your ability to endure.
3. No temptation is irresistible
4. God’s strength is available for you to overcome.
The Bible says, “No test or temptation that comes your way is beyond the course of what others have had to face. All you need to remember is that God will never let you down; he’ll never let you be pushed past your limit; he’ll always be there to help you come through it.” (1Corinthians 10:13, Message Translation)
Hallelujah!
It’s my prayer that you will take hold of God’s never-failing hand today and experience victory over your trying moments.
In Jesus Name.
