Temptation
"Your word I have treasured in my heart, that
I may not sin against You."
Psalms 119:11
"He who conceals his transgressions will not
prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will find compassion."

"For sin shall not be master over you, for you
are not under law but under grace."
Romans 6:14
"Therefore let him who thinks he stands take
heed that he does not fall. No temptation has overtaken you but such as
is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted
beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way
of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it."
1 Corinthians 10:12, 13
"Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength
of His might. Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to
stand firm against the schemes of the devil. In addition to all, taking
up the shield of faith with which you will be able to extinguish all the
flaming arrows of the evil one."
Ephesians 6:10-11, 16
"For since He Himself was tempted in that which
He has suffered, He is able to come to the aid of those who are tempted."
Hebrews 2:18
"Therefore, since we have a great high priest
who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast
our confession. For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize
with our weaknesses, but One who has been tempted in all things as we are,
yet without sin. Therefore let us draw near with confidence to the throne
of grace, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of
need."
Hebrews 4:14-16
"Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you
encounter various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces
endurance. Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has
been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised
to those who love Him."
James 1:2-3, 12
"Let no one say when he is tempted, I am being
tempted by God; for God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself does
not tempt anyone. But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed
by his own lust."
James 1:13, 14
"Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and
he will flee from you."
James 4:7
"In this you greatly rejoice, even though now
for a little while, if necessary, you have been distressed by various trials,
so that the proof of your faith, being more precious than gold which is
perishable, even though tested by fire, may be found to result in praise
and glory and honor at the revelation of Jesus Christ."
1 Peter 1:6-7
"Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary,
the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
But resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same experiences of
suffering are being accomplished by your brethren who are in the world."
1 Peter 5:8-9
"Then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly
from temptation."

"If we confess our sins, He is faithful and
righteous to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness."

overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the
world."

and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great
joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory,
majesty."
