“If you think you are standing strong, be careful not to fall.”
We all face temptation.
Temptation isn’t sin — it’s part of the battle.
Lust/Craving of the flesh– Appetite (Eve: saw fruit was good for food / Jesus: stones to bread).
Lust/Craving of the eyes– Attraction (Eve: fruit was pleasing to the eye / Jesus: kingdoms of the world).
Pride of life– Achievement (Eve: desirable for wisdom / Jesus: prove yourself, throw yourself down).
Can you identify WHAT you are tempted with or by?
Do you know WHERE you are most tempted?
Do you know WHEN your are most tempted?
BUT GOD is faithful.
BUT GOD is faithful and with us through...
The Holy Spirit.
His people.
James 5:16a NLT
“Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.”
“Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.”
The Cure: What if there is a place so safe that the worst of me could be known and I would discover that I would not be loved less but more in the telling of it.
His Word.
Even when we give in, God doesn’t give up.
God offers forgiveness when we confess.
God offers transformation, not just another try.
Next Step: What is a current temptation you are facing or falling into and how can you experience the faithfulness of God in and through it?
