How Should God’s People Live Each Day?
They Should Live Like Jesus...
by saying no to disobeying God!
All of God’s people are tempted to disobey God. They love God and want to obey Him. They have the Holy Spirit living in their hearts. But sin is still very strong in their hearts, too. Sometimes it is very, very hard to say “no” to disobeying God. It was hard for Jesus, too. God wants His people to do what Jesus did when He was tempted. Jesus prayed to God His Father to help Him. He remembered God’s Word and it made Him strong to say “no” to disobeying God. God helped Jesus never to disobey Him. And God promises to help His people to do what is right when they are tempted, too. When we trust Jesus as our Savior, we can know that He will help us, too.
Scripture Verse: 1 Corinthians 10:13
“No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful: he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted he’ll also provide a way out so you can stand up under it.”
What’s a temptation? It’s thinking about doing something that God says is wrong! We are all tempted to do bad things. Sometimes it is very, very hard to say ‘no’ to temptation. But God’s people have these wonderful promises from God that He won’t give them too much temptation; and, He will even give them a way to say ‘no’ to temptation every single time! Isn’t God kind to His people! He helps them to live for Him!
