Title : Overcoming Temptation
"And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. Matthew 4:3"
Devotion : The faithfulness of God allows every man to be tempted within his ability; therefore, God does not allow us to be tempted beyond our ability to overcome. He provides a way for us in his Word to win over temptation, therefore, instead of complaining what one needs to do is to find that way of escape in the midst of the temptation. If you don't find it what do you do? What you do is to pray for God to show you that way of escape.
Quote the scripture above to him and He will give you an answer. He also gives us the grace to bear temptations just as He gave Jesus Christ the grace to endure and overcome his temptations.
We should also understand that God tests us but the devil tempts us. The intention of God in testing is to promote us but the intention of the devil in temptation is to discredit and run us down.
Dear beloved, what did learn from this article?

I learnt the difference between TEMPTATION and TEST. Temptation is of the devil 👿 he entices us to sin while Test is of God, to measure how we react to adversity without cursing or blaming God.
More reactions welcomed.
