A Way of Escape

The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience.

1 Corinthians 10:13

Lord, I feel as if I’m under attack. I know that my “struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms” (Ephesians 6:12).

Give me the strength to resist the devil. Cause him to flee from me, in Jesus’ name (see James 4:7).

Thank You for the comforting assurance that this trial is not new or exclusive to me. Thank You for promising not to let me be tempted beyond my ability in Christ. Thank You for always providing a way of escape and for enabling me to endure it (see 1 Corinthians 10:13).

Deliver me from this temptation. Empower me to use the escape route and not avoid it. Keep me from sinning against You. Protect my testimony for Your name’s sake.

Amen
