God Provides the Way

During our Lenten Season we are more aware of temptation, sin and forgiveness. What a wonder it is that God knows our hearts, our desires and our weaknesses and prepares our lives for all we may be confronted with. Unfortunately the devil also knows our weaknesses and uses them against us in order for us to rationalize why we can do what we should not do. Once the thought of temptation is planted and we give it credence the power of doing wrong is accepted. Knowing this only strengthens our need for God and His mercy, as it is through God that we are protected. So when being tempted with life let’s turn to God and remember His commands and live the life He has planned for us. 1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation He will also provide that way of escape, that you may be able to endure it. We are blessed, shielded and sheltered with God’s armor and He defends us from the enemy…Hang tight to our Lord through continued Bible studies, prayers and supplications and praise for His love and forgiveness.
