WHAT IS THAT TEMPTATION YOU REGULARLY FALL FOR? OVERCOMING BESETTING SINS.

Not everybody falls for the same kind of temptation. Someone can be struggling with lies, while another person is fighting with envy, someone can be struggling with fornication and immorality while another person although not fornicating but always masturbates. Some one could be free from fornication because he or she is married but still backbites and gossips. Some people are addicted to alcohol and smoking. Some have a problem with unbelief, others find it difficult to forgive. For some it is pride or anger. You must identify the temptation you easily fall for if you want to be able to overcome. Temptation is not a sin, it is falling for temptation that is a sin. The devil can also try to deceive you by making you believe that you are above temptation or that the temptation to lie will never come. It is a lie, temptation will keep coming as far as you are alive on this earth. 1st Corinthians 10:12-13.

The easiest way to overcome temptation because it is resident in the mind is to ignore it or replace that thought with another immediately. Don't ponder on that thought, because it gains strength when you think on it. Proverbs 23:7. You will always do what you think. So anytime that thought comes replace it or ignore it. Don't act as if it is important. You cannot overcome temptation by taking resolutions or by swearing, you must develop a system of switching your focus from the thought when it comes to the word of God or any other important thing. Do not give place to the devil in your mind. Once you overcome a temptation God and life promotes you. YOU WILL OVERCOME FROM TODAY IN JESUS PRECIOUS NAME. Rejoice when you are tempted because it is a proof that your promotion is around the corner and it is also a proof that you are not for the devil but for God.
