How to resist temptation
Temptation is something every Christian face. And it doesn’t matter how long you have been following Christ. But if we remain watchful and pray for ourselves and others, the Holy Spirit will enable us to resist temptation.
Here are five tried and true steps Mary Fairchild of http://www.thoughtco.com says you can take to resist temptation.
Recognize your tendency to Sin
Flee from temptation
Resist temptation with the Word of truth
Refocus your mind and heart with praise
Repent quickly when you fail
Mark 14:38 (KJV) Bible Gateway
Watch with me and pray lest the Tempter overpower you. For though the spirit is willing enough, the body is weak.
God doesn’t need you to defend Him
Christian encouragement
It shouldn’t surprise you to learn that God does not need you to defend Him or even apologize for Him. All He wants you to do is represent Him. So, go out there and be that beacon on the hill. And let your light shine.
Matthew 5:16–Bible Gateway (KJV)
1Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
