Word of Hope for Today
with PRC
How
to overcome Temptation (Part-3)
“He ran from the house.” Ge 39:12 NLT
Today’s Insight
The Bible says, “Joseph was a very handsome and well-built young man, and Potiphar’s wife…began to look at him lustfully. ‘Come and sleep with me,’ she demanded. But Joseph refused. ‘Look,’ he told her, ‘my master trusts me with everything in his entire household…How could I do such a wicked thing? It would be a great sin against God.’ She kept putting pressure on Joseph day after day, but he refused to sleep with her, and he kept out of her way as much as possible. One day, however, no one else was around when he went in to do his work. She came and grabbed him by his cloak, demanding, ‘Come on, and sleep with me!’ Joseph tore himself away, but he left his cloak in her hand as he ran from the house” (vv. 6-12 NLT).
Note the words: “She
kept putting pressure on Joseph day after day.” Joseph’s temptation kept
happening when he was around a certain person: Potiphar’s wife. And it kept
happening when he was in a certain place: Potiphar’s house. So he ran. Not
because he was weak—but because he was wise! He understood that if you hang
around temptation too long you’re playing with fire and setting yourself up to
get “burned.”
So,
what people and what places do you
need to avoid?
What
sources of temptation do you need
to remove from your life in order to live victoriously?
Remember
the old Kenny Rogers song: “You got to know when to hold ’em, know when to fold
’em; know when to walk away and know when to run”? God isn’t dishonored when
you run—you’re dishonored
when you don’t!
Prayer for Today
O
heavenly Father thank you for your Word Today. Lord thank you for giving me
wisdom that if temptation will come to me, I must run to avoid contamination by
the wicked people surrounds. Your word tells us that bad character corrupt good
moral. So Lord, our good will not rob enough those who are doing wicked if we
stay those who are playing fire. Lord thank you for reminding us to always
resist temptation and run from them so that we may walk worthy of our calling
for your glory. In Jesus name! Amen!
Prayer for Salvation
Father
in heaven I admit that I am a sinner; I repent of all my sins and accept your
Son Jesus Christ as my Personal Lord & Savior Amen. If you mean that prayer
from the bottom of your heart you are now saved, it is God's... promise in John
3:16 - that if you trust His Son (Jesus) you will not perish or die but you
will have ETERNAL LIFE. To develop
your Faith look for a local Bible Based Church in your area
and serve God first place in your life I promise you that if you do that, God
will take you to a place that you have never dream of and your life will never
be the same again.
Again
congratulations and welcome to the
family of God.
God
bless you!
