There is always a way out ..God will never allow more on you than he puts within you
Refocus your attention ...blocking thoughts drive them deeper ..the more you fight a feeling the more it consumes and controls you ..turn your attention to something else ..the battle for sin is won and lost in your mind ..the more you think about something the more it takes control
Temptation captures your attention ..arouses your emotions ..then activates behaviour
Ignoring temptation is more effective than fighting it ..just hang up!
Keep your mind occupied with God's word and good thoughts ..manage your mind and your media intake ..be selective, don't allow trash in
Reveal your struggles to a Godly friend or support group ..don't repress it, confess it, don't conceal it, reveal it, revealing your feeling is the beginning of healing
Will power and personal resolutions aren't enough....humility is needed, not pride
Resist the devil ...put salvation on as your helmet and take the sword of the spirit
Helmet of salvation keeps our minds protected and word of God as a weapon ..Jesus always quoted scripture ..did not argue with Satan ..store truth in your heart ready to remember ..one verse a week for the rest of your life ..challenge
Realise your vulnerability ..God at fooling ourselves ..never let down your guard ..it is easier to stay out of temptation than to get out of it
Notes
Bible verse a week .. A real challenge
