Mark 14:50-52

Luke 22:61-62

BIG IDEA : No temptation is too great for prayer.

1. Pray for his power to lead you through.

2. Pray for his power through testing and temptation.

James 1:12-17

Tests
- Designed by God (Mt 4.1)
- Loving Father
- Response = Rejoice
- ‘Good’ = Constructive Purpose

Temptations
- Exploited by Satan
- Hungry Lion (1 Pt 5.8)
- Response = Resist
- ‘Ruin’ = Destructive Conclusion

Every temptation is an opportunity to love Jesus more.

3. Pray for his power to deliver you.

Opposition is normal (& necessary) for disciples.

What's Next?
Use God's exit strategy.

1 Corinthians 10:13

Life cannot put more on your plate than God himself can handle.

What he did for his Son then he does for his children today so watch and pray.
