Anointed Profit for May 2021
Overcoming Temptation
1. Christ overcomes temptation to the body by saying “It is written”
It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God (Matthew 4:4).
2. Christ overcomes temptation to the soul
It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God (Matthew 4:7).
3. Christ overcomes Devil’s temptation to the spirit
Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve (Matthew 4:10).
4. Prayer to be kept from temptation
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen (Matthew 6:13).
5. Warning to watch lest ye enter temptation
Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak (Matthew 26:41).
6. Temptation causes some to fall away
They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in the time of temptation fall away (Luke 8:13).
7. Terrible hour of temptation to come on all the world
Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth (Revelation 3:10).
Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all (I Timothy 4:15).
