GOD'S PROMISES - TEMPTATION

When we are struggling and going through difficult circumstances in our lives, we can be tempted to do things that may be illegal or immoral to get us out of our current situations.  Stop!  Pray!  And ask God to see you through and lead you not into temptation and deliver you from evil!

"And do not lead us into temptation but deliver us from evil.  For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, forever, Amen!"  Matthew 6:13

"Keep watching and praying, that you may not enter into temptation; the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak."  Matthew 26:41

"And those on the rocky soil are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no firm root; they believe for a while, and in time of temptation fall away."  Luke 8:13

"No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man; and God is faithful who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape, also, that you may be able to endure it."  1 Corinthians 10:13

"..then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from temptation, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment.." 2 Peter 2:9
