Is it even possible to live a godly life in such an ungodly place? Temptation seems to surround us no matter where we go. Temptation is Satan's oldest trick in the book, but you don't have to fall for it. Come check out how you could see it coming every time and avoid it.
Questions to consider:
- What are temptations in everyday life that are hard for you to walk away from?
- What is the most common repetitive sin in your life?
- Understand the why (the bait that the Devil uses) - Why are you tempted to that particular sin? What do you believe it will do for you? What are you desiring or valuing most when you do that sin?
- Which of these ^ schemes can you relate to the most? Why?
- What area(s) do you need to admit that you are weak in?
- Why do you think it’s important to have a few people that know everything (specific temptations, sin, fears, dreams) about you?
- Who could those people be for you?
- Does your mentality about fighting temptation and sin need to change? If so, how?
- What is a truth that you need to begin preaching to yourself?
- Of the 4 ways to fight temptation, which one do you need to focus on the most?
