My Blog on God - Temptation

Temptation

Temptation is not from God, God Does not tempt you. So when you are being tempted remember that Jesus was tempted too, but did not give into temptation. Instead he turned to him and said Away with you Satan. Jesus can help you through the temptation if you ask for help. God will not allow you to be tempted by evil beyond what you can bear.

Father, when I feel like I am being tempted, please help me through, in Jesus name I pray, Amen.

James 1:13-15 (NKJV)
^{1:13 Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God"; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone.
14 But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed.
15 Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.}

Hebrews 2:18 (NKJV)
2:18 For in that He Himself has suffered, being tempted, He is able to aid those who are tempted.


Matthew 4:8-10 (NKJV)
4:8 Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.
9 And he said to Him, "All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me."
10 Then Jesus said to him, "Away with you, Satan! For it is written, 'You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve.' "

1 Corinthians 10:13 (NKJV)
10:13 No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.
