1 Corinthians 10:13

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 the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

    Different people struggle with a lot of different things. We all struggle with something different. It affects us in different ways and the intensity is different so everyone has it differently. Sometimes we may think that we are alone but as 1 Corinthians 10:13 says no temptation (or struggle) is not common to man meaning that many others struggle the same way you do. 

     When we are tempted to sin and we feel like we just can't say no to it we need to look for a way for anyway to outsmart the devil and his ways. He can be outsmarted and won over if we just try. We can resist the devil and he will flee (James 4:7). As hard as it may seem at the moment but we can resist him and make sure he doesn't win.

    Temptations are like traps that the devil sets for us. Every trap can be escaped somehow. You just have to be cautious and not let it keep you stuck in that trap. Our temptations can control us sometimes and the devil will use that against us but we need to be able to get out of the devils control and resist him. (2 Timothy 2:26). 

    God will always provide a way for you to resist the devil and for you to flee from temptation...it's up to you if you will take it though.
