Temptation - Follow Jesus

1 CORINTHIANS 10:13

No temptation has taken you but such as man can bear. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation make also the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

JAMES 1:12-16

Blessed is the man who endures temptation, for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life, which the Lord promised to those who love him. Let no man say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God,” for God can’t be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one. But each one is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own lust, and enticed. Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin; and the sin, when it is full grown, brings forth death.

JAMES 4:7

Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

HEBREWS 4:15

For we don’t have a high priest who can’t be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.

GALATIANS 6:7-8

Don’t be deceived. God is not mocked, for whatever a man sows, that will he also reap. For he who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption. But he who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.

ROMANS 12:2

Don’t be fashioned according to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

MARK 14:38

Watch and pray, that you not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

COLOSSIANS 3:5-6

Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth: sexual immorality, uncleanness, passion, evil desire, and covetousness, which is idolatry; for which things’ sake the wrath of God comes on the sons of disobedience.

1 JOHN 2:15-17

Don’t love the world, neither the things that are in the world. If anyone loves the world, the Father’s love isn’t in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, isn’t the Father’s, but is the world’s. The world is passing away with its lusts, but he who does God’s will remains forever.

EPHESIANS 6:11

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.

GALATIANS 5:16-17

But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won’t fulfill the lust of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; and these are contrary the one to the other, that you may not do the things that you desire.

ROMANS 6:12-14

Therefore don’t let sin reign in your mortal body, that you should obey it in its lusts. Neither present your members to sin as instruments of unrighteousness, but present yourselves to God, as alive from the dead, and your members as instruments of righteousness to God. For sin will not have dominion over you. For you are not under law, but under grace.

HEBREWS 2:18

For in that he himself has suffered being tempted, he is able to help those who are tempted.

HEBREWS 4:15

For we don’t have a high priest who can’t be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.

JOHN 10:10

The thief only comes to steal, kill, and destroy. I came that they may have life, and may have it abundantly.
