Under Pressure
Peer pressure is inevitable in school. No matter how strong you are, there are always going to be times where it is tempting to give in. If you don’t decide now how you’re going to react to peer pressure, it’s going to be a lot harder to do the right thing when you’re trying to make that decision in the heat of the moment.
Matthew 4:1-4 NIV
Matthew 4:5-11 NIV
1 Corinthians 10:13 NIV
You are going to face peer pressure this year, it’s just a fact. But you can make things so much easier by deciding how you are going to respond before it even happens. Whether it’s something as big as drugs or something seemingly small, like gossip, there is going to be pressure to act in a way that contradicts the Bible. Be prepared this year by knowing what the Bible says. Just like Jesus was able to say those exact verses at the right time, you can memorize them and do the same.
