deliver the godly out of
temptations,

Temptation and
the Bible |
When you
are faced with a temptation—run
the other direction.
"Run from anything that
gives you the evil thoughts that
young men often have, but stay
close to anything that makes you
want to do right. Have faith and
love, and enjoy the companionship
of those who love the Lord and
have pure hearts."
II Timothy 2:22, TLB
Prayer
strengthens us against temptation.
"Watch and pray so that
you will not fall into temptation.
The spirit is willing, but the
body is weak."
Mark 14:38, NIV
Meet
temptation with God's Word.
"Then Jesus was led by the
Spirit into the desert to be
tempted by the devil. The tempter
came to Him and said, 'If you are
the Son of God, tell these stones
to become bread:' Jesus answered,
"It is written: Man does not live
on bread alone, but on every word
that comes from the mouth of
God.'"
Matthew 4:1,3,4, NIV
God will
not allow us to be tempted beyond
our ability to resist.
"No temptation has
seized you except what is common
to man. And God is faithful; He
will not let you be tempted beyond
what you can bear. But when you
are tempted, He will also provide
a way out so that you can stand up
under it."
I Corinthians 10:13, NIV
Those who
do not yield to temptation will be
rewarded.
"Happy is the man who
doesn't give in and do wrong when
he is tempted, for afterwards he
will get as his reward the crown
of life that God has promised
those who love Him."
James 1:12, TLB5
