Scripture: “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Matthew 26:41 NIV Application: The crucial thing about temptation is that it is most effective when it comes unexpectedly. Usually, we've made great plans and perhaps even just had a major success. And then... WHAM!! Temptation grabs us with the ferocity of an animal trap...which it is. It comes after our most basic, animalistic urges. One slip up and we've fallen into it's grasp. But we can avoid that perilous fall: Pray to stay pure when we are not tempted, and keep praying. Prayer: Jesus, right now we pray that our flesh will not betray our spiritual will. Our desire is to be strong so that we can always be in pure fellowship with You. Amen. Comments are closed.
