OVERCOMING TEMPTATION
God knows your thoughts: your text messages, your deleted photos and videos, everything you say, see, read, watch and do. Don't fool yourself—nothing is hidden from God.
Overcoming temptation means controlling yourself. It means surrendering yourself to God and not to temptation. It means walking in pure relationships. It means obeying the voice of the Holy Spirit. It means filling your mind with pure thoughts. It means reading the Bible and living by it. It requires a lifetime of being honest before God.
The consequences of falling into temptation are too deadly to do anything else.
