DO NOT WORRY BUT TRUST IN THE LORD


There are many temptations in everyday life. But “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.” (1 Corinthians 10:13)
Only those who do not have the spirit of God (the Holy Spirit) can not bear not fall into temptation. Because,  “Every spirit that does not acknowledge Jesus is not from God. . . . You, dear children, are from God and have overcome them, because the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.”( 1 John 4:3-4)
If you have already received Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit is in you. Therefore, “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. . . . so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. . . .

 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. . . . And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests.” (Ephesians 6:10-18)
“His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.” (2 Peter 1:3-4)
“No one who is born of God will continue to sin, because God’s seed remains in him; he cannot go on sinning, because he has been born of God.”( 1 John 3:9)

May Jesus be with you always.
