When You Feel Like Quitting

Hello Friends,


In 1 Corinthians 10:13, Paul tells us:


“You are tempted in the same way that everyone else is tempted. But God can be trusted not to let you be tempted too much, and he will show you how to escape from your temptations” (CEV).


The enemy will always attempt to trap you by appealing to your earthly desires. His strategy has taken many of His chosen ones down into a pit of despair. Spiritual warfare is not a game. It is very real, and you will have to run as far from temptation as you can to keep from falling prey to it. The Lord knows running from the darkness may seem radical to many, but you are called to live a radical faith. He will always make a way of escape for you. But you ultimately will make the choice to either bite the tempting bait of Satan or escape the snare of the enemy and run to Him.


I pray that you will always rely on your Heavenly Father to be your way of escape. He knows the trials that you are going through, and He is right there beside you every step of the way. May you turn to Him in your time of need and let Him show you the way out of temptation. May you be stronger after each challenge and ready to defeat the next one. I pray that you will flee from temptation and cling to righteousness, and that you will be one who pushes through the dark forces into the light. In Jesus' Name. Amen.


Please meditate on this verse:


And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires.” (2 Peter 1:4, NLT).


Blessings,
