See Beyond Your Strugglesनमूना

You Are a Victor in Jesus 

“No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it.” —1 Corinthians 10:13

What I love about this verse is that it recognizes that regardless of how we’re being tempted, God is still actively involved in our lives. When we’re being tempted, He’s already there with us—in the middle of losing our temper or in the middle of having a bad attitude. In the middle of whatever it is, God is right here with us.

I want you to know that when you are tempted, God’s feelings of love for you do not change. He will give you the way of escape, if you will keep clinging to Him even in the middle of the temptation.

Now,  you may feel like you’re failing. You might think, “I’m clinging to God and I’m praying, but my attitude still stinks. There are still words coming out of my mouth that I know are not in alignment with love and truth.” But I believe that if you will keep hanging on to God and if you will keep praying for the situation, He will strengthen you through the process, and you will overcome.

At the end of the day, God is going to perfect you and complete the work He started in you. Whatever temptation you’re dealing with, you will overcome it because God will make a way out. It may not always happen immediately. There may be a process involved. But,  the Father will complete the work He began in us. He will cause us to overcome. You and I are victors in Jesus.

When we have sinned, we may think that God is angry with us and wants nothing more to do with us. But, the Bible says that “if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous” (1 John 2:1).
