    Psalm 27:13 NKJV
    13 I would have lost heart, unless I had believed That I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living.
    Giving:
    Luke 12:28 NKJV
    28 If then God so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith?
    Today’s Text:
    Matthew 6:13 NKJV
    13 And do not lead us into temptation, But deliver us from the evil one. For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.

    1. Temptation is not from the Lord.

    James 1:13 NKJV
    13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone.

    2. Temptation comes from our own desires.

    James 1:13–15 NKJV
    13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone. 14 But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. 15 Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.
    many of us don’t know the evil that lurks in our own heart.
    I would say of myself that I know the big stuff that lurks, the stuff that from my nice christian up bringing that I know I shouldn’t do, but there is other stuff that I don’t see until i see it in others and it get’s on my last nerve.
    Jeremiah 17:9 “9 “The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?”
    our hearts don’t want us to know that we are deceived. Because if we know that our hearts are deceived. we will start testing the things in our hearts by the scripture and then we will walk in the truth subjecting my heart to the will of God.
    James 1:14 “14 But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed.”
    notice that verse says “each one, ” no-one is amune to temptation.
    all temptation looks different.
    that’s why the Holy Spirit brings conviction to the heart if man not man.
    when we give unto our desires sin is born.
    sin brings death. James 1:15 “15 Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.”

    3 The Lord will deliver us from the evil one!

    1 Corinthians 10:13 NKJV
    13 No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.
    no temptation is new. every once in a while we don’t see it coming because it gets a new set of clothes. but we all struggle with our flesh.
    God us faithful!
    not in regards to what I give him, rather it is who he is.
    we dint turn ti him because of guilt and shame, rather than turn to the God who sent His spirit so that we can reflect jesus rather than where i come from our who I am.
    Reflections:
    in order to be the person God is calling me to be I am going to have to call sin, sin. I need to recognize it for what it is.
    Finally we are going to have to be humble enough to cry out to God.
