RESISTING TEMPTATION

in steemchurch •  6 years ago  (edited)


One of the greatest beatitudes is to resist temptation; for the winners. Let us remember the victory of Joseph in Egypt, against the insinuations that Potiphar's wife made him.

The Bible teaches us that Jesus dominated temptation by defeating the Devil with the word of God.

Jesus answered him: The scriptures also say: You shall not test the Lord your God, When the Devil finished tempting Jesus, he left until the next opportunity.

Lc 4:12-13 (NTV).

In addition, the Lord gives us guidance how to overcome temptations using the weapons he has left us. He recommends us to have a life of prayer since the Word of This Text Tells Us of a Permanent Prayer, is the term Watch, to be Awake Busy in Prayer. David Said While Sleeping ...

The purpose of maintaining a life of prayer is to avoid temptations because many times we fall easily before her because our prayer life if it is not null is almost nil. A Baptist Pastor In The 19th Century He Said:

Who Does Not Pray At Least One Hour A Day Is A Miserable.

On the Other Side, Because We Live So Frustrated, In Constant Failure And Spiritual Decline, Simple Because We Have No Life Of Prayer.

Watch and pray that you will not give in to temptation.

Mt 26:41 (NTV).

Understanding that the Lord keeps us from being tempted more than we can resist and in the end will reward those who overcome temptation in relation to:

God blesses those who endure with patience the trials and temptations, because after overcoming them, they will receive the crown of life promised to those who love him.

Santg 1:12

Finally, the disciple attains victory each time he submits to God in prayer, resisting the attacks of the enemy, considering that the Master Said:

Separated from me, you can not do anything

Jn 15:5.

And something very important for beating temptations is:

Stay away from the temptations

In example, we must know and remember that we are mos tempted when we are alone, so we must avoid to be alone as much as possible. That is a good reason to go to the church, we get encouraged when we meet out brothers and speak about God's word.

May God shine on you and guide you.
