Overcoming Temptations
February 4, 2024
James 1:12 – STAND FIRM
Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love Him.
James 1:13 – KNOW THE SOURCE
Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself tempts no one.
James 1:14 – RUN FAST
But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire.
James 1:15 – ABORT SIN
Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death.
