You Too Can Overcome Lust And Temptation by Nobody: 10:31pm On Nov 16, 2019
Sorry... This post is due to one of my replies on lust and temptation....

"Lust and temptation have no power over me. I don't know about others... But as for me I speak to them. When they come, I say 'You are an enemy. An animal... so get out.' What did Jesus, who was tempted and tried as we were, do when satan came to tempt him? Didn't he reply satan and he left him alone? Tho I'm a weakling and babe like everyone else... But why do we fall? Surely, the strength of God in us is Stronger than the strength of sin."

We only have to be in line with his will and what he has for us... please read through:

I mean... If Christ came to help helpless babe and weaklings like us... Then we should know we have His strength --- and this is if we ask for more.

He came without strength and when He was baptized and filled with the HolyGhost, he became armed with strength!

And we know, we as Children of God, that God has truly given us His Holy Spirit and to pray with His awesome power. Since it is so, we have power of the Holy Spirit and His power dwells in us as we abide in Him and He in us. There is no power greater on earth, under the earth or even outside in the heavens that is greater as the power of God. His power is far totally greater beyond the Galaxy - It's an awestriking wonder!

So where am I trying to Go? If Jesus came and was tempted like we were, overcame and defeated Satan... Then what's up with us? He didn't have that power at first until He was baptized in the power of the Holy Spirit and as Christians we have that power which God has freely given us --- We have to be sin-free and realize that power and leverage it against every powers and principalities! Yes... They are subject to the power! No foes or demon can go against the will of God when you command your enemies with that power. But then... Are you doing God's will? I'm no Pastor ish, but take the time to unfold and reason things out.



Tho we are all kings and queens of the royalhood of God...
Jesus is King and has overcome the world and is waiting for you to do the same with his strength so you sit with him on His throne of Glory... #Tagged with much love and for the family.
