Breathes New Life | Week 2 | Giants and Grasshoppers Series

How Jesus breaths new life into us.  There are tons of ways of that Jesus breaths new life into us.

The area that I want to focus on is temptation because there is not one of us in here that does not struggle with some sort of temptation, because I believe this area of our life when Jesus breaths new life into us it also helps experience the freedom that all of us desire.

 

.12 So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall! 13 No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.  1 Corinthians 10:12-13 NIV

 

Temptation is anything that promises satisfaction at the cost of obedience to God.

 

Four truths about temptation

It’s not a sin to be tempted.

15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin.  Hebrews 4:15 NIV

 

You are never above temptation.

12 So, if you think you are standing firmbe careful that you don’t fall1 Corinthians 10:12 NIV

 

God will never tempt you.

13 And remember, when you are being tempted, do not say, “God is tempting me.” God is never tempted to do wrong, and he never tempts anyone else. 14 Temptation comes from our own desires, which entice us and drag us away. 15 These desires give birth to sinful actions. And when sin is allowed to grow, it gives birth to death. James 1:13-15 NLT

 

There is always a way out.

13 …And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it. 1 Corinthians 10:13 NIV

 

Christ in you is always stronger than any temptation in you!
