Temptation - What It Is - What Is Your Part? - What is God's Part?

Temptation is common to the human race. Temptation itself is not sin, but what it does is reveal our true inner nature and it potentials. Christ Himself was tempted, but did not yield to it because His inner-man would yield only to God. Our part in temptation is to rise above it. We do this by building our allegiance to Christ who is number one in our life. God's part is to sustain us through it. He intervenes in the life of the believer, especially when the believer requests so by prayer. The result is a stronger saint who can weather the storm by knowing who he is in Christ.

Daily Prayer: Lord Jesus, we do not like temptation, but in this world there will be tribulation.
Equip us so that when trouble comes, Christ who is formed in us will rise up and go to another level apart from it. In Jesus name I pray Amen.
