Book excerpt: We face all different types of temptations daily as Christians. How successful are you in these temptations? What are your strengths? What are your weaknesses? Paul writes to the church at Corinth under the influence of the Holy Spirit that “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 10:13). James gives us a solution to our temptations when he states “Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you” (James 4:7). What does it mean to submit? What does it mean to resist? The answers are waiting for you inside.
