Word of Hope for Today with PRC
How to overcome Temptation (Part-4)
“Its fruit looked delicious…So she…ate it.” Ge 3:6 NLT
Today’s Insight
Let’s look at the first time in Scripture anyone was tempted and see what we can learn. The Bible says, “The serpent was the shrewdest of all the [creatures] the Lord God had made…he asked the woman, ‘Did God really say…?’” (v. 1 NLT). First, Satan will blind you to all the good things God has in store for you. Then he’ll take mood-altering substances like drugs or alcohol, or somebody else’s husband or wife, or Internet porn, and tell you it won’t hurt you. Don’t bite! He’s a liar! Don’t believe him! “Temptation comes from our own desires…These desires give birth to sinful actions. And when sin is allowed to grow, it gives birth to death.
So don’t be misled, my dear brothers and sisters” (Jas 1:14-16 NLT). Any weakness that’s constantly indulged, excused, denied, or hidden has the power to enslave you. Failure to identify and target your weakness strengthens it. Ignoring your areas of vulnerability makes defeat inevitable. Satan has assigned certain people to feed your weaknesses. Be discerning. Your weakness will be drawn to any friendship that accepts it, enjoys it and feeds on it. It has an agenda of its own—to take over your life and sabotage God’s plan for you. It’ll always bond with the wrong people and make you uncomfortable in the presence of the right ones. And it can emerge at any time, including your latter years. So how do you overcome your weakness? Through willpower? No, through God’s power! And it’s available to you today—so reach for it!
Prayer for Today
O heavenly Father thank you for your Word Today. Lord thank you for the subject of temptation and I believed that not only me you are dealing but so many people reading this message has facing any kinds of temptation and I trust you Lord as your Word says not by my will power but by your power, not by my might nor by my power but by your Spirit says the Lord.

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.
