Temptation

When we’re held in the grip of addiction, it can be difficult to see a way out. But with God’s help and strength, we can break out of the chains and find new freedom with Him. Read this 30-day reading plan from UCB to face the 'giant' of addiction with the help of God's Word.

Facing the Giant of Addiction

Fasting is not starvation or an involuntary absence of food; it is abstaining from food for spiritual reasons. Fasting is not a hunger strike, and it is not a diet—a diet focuses on helping you lose weight, while fasting draws you closer to God. This is a great devotional use as you fast. 

Fast Forward

Temptation is something that we all deal with. We would all like the secret to never being tempted again. However, there isn’t one. The Bible doesn’t promise a way to avoid all temptation, but it does give instructions on how to overcome every temptation. It tells us we don’t need to be unaware of Satan’s schemes.


Overcoming Temptation

If you are a Christian, you are constantly at war. Not because you are attacked physically, but because spiritual forces try to lure you away from God. To protect you, God offers you spiritual armor. This reading plan explains what this armor of God looks like and how you can use it.

The Armor of God

This 3-day devotional journey invites you to examine the subtle compromises and hidden habits that grow into spiritual giants. This devotional will help you to identify some of the small sins that slowly gain strength, expose the ways we unknowingly feed them, and empower you to confront them with God’s truth, grace, and strength.

Through Scripture, reflection, and prayer, you'll learn to catch the “little foxes,” starve what weakens you, and stand in the name of the Lord to claim victory. Start small. Stand strong. Slay early.

Slaying Giants Before They Grow

This 6-day reading plan is designed to help you learn how to apply the armor of God effectively. Each day focuses on a specific element—truth, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, and the Word of God—paired with prayer points and scriptures to help you apply it. Learn how to stand firm, resist attacks, and walk in victory by fully equipping yourself with God’s armor.

Wearing the Armor of God Effectively

God didn’t leave His daughters to face a viscous enemy alone. He’s given us His very own armor so we can experience victory over the enemy. Jesus’ blood has already won the war, freeing us from the power of the enemy, but few are living within this freedom. This plan will give specific examples on how God’s Word teaches His warriors to wear their armor and fight back.

Our Modern Warfare (Part 2)

In this devotional, we will conduct a thorough biblical and practical examination of temptation and its impact on our lives. 

One day, we will be completely free from temptation, but only after our resurrection on the new earth. For now, temptation will affect us for the rest of our lives, so it's crucial that we learn how to handle it.
