No one is immune. Every Christian who has ever lived has faced temptation. Before we go any further, it’s important to remember that being tempted isn’t a sin. It’s when we act on temptation—when we give in to it—it becomes sin.
Sometimes temptation seems so strong; you find yourself wondering if you can truly be victorious. You CAN win the battle of temptation! The Bible gives us a clear pathway to freedom.
God will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you can bear. When you’re in the middle of fighting temptation, don’t fight it alone—seek His help!
If you’re giving in to temptation, more than you’d like to admit, go ahead and admit it to God right now. Ask for His strength not to yield to temptation.
