Three Keys to Victory 1Corinthians 10:13 Three Keys To Victory 1Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it. God's assurance ought to encourage Christians to endure No temptation is greater than our ability to bear it Satan only has power to entice us, not power to coerce us God provides us with a means of escape When temptation comes, we have an option other than sinning God, with each temptation, provides way to successfully overcome We do not have to fail the test because there is no other option Weightlifters know that eventually more weight can be added to the bar than could be lifted God does not allow that to happen to us in our battle with temptation We deny God's revelation when we think, "The devil made me do it." Each of us is responsible for finding the way of escape This demands that we learn the areas in our lives that are vulnerable to Satan's temptations and actively seek God's escape route

Three Keys To Victory Courage Psalm 119:11; Psalm 119:104 Strength of character When we feel ourselves being pulled toward something sinful, we must have the character & courage to "draw the line" and refuse to cross it Can only be accomplished by a working knowledge of God's Word We must be able to recall the solution from our study of the Word in order to find the way of escape Psalms 119:11 I have stored up your word in my heart, that I might not sin against you. We only "hide" those things we believe are valuable Do you view God's Word as so valuable you will hide it where no one can take it from you: your heart? Notice why the Psalmist hid it there, "that I might not sin against thee." How important is not sinning to you? We think too little of sin We seldom contemplate its terrible consequences We know what it is like to hate a sin we have already committed Should develop the same intensity of feeling before sinning so that the act can be prevented. Psalms 119:104 Through your precepts I get understanding; therefore I hate every false way.

Genesis 39:9; 2Corinthians 5:21 Three Keys To Victory Courage Psalm 119:11; Psalm 119:104 Fear Fear of sin Joseph early in life decided he would not be immoral before God Genesis 39:9 He is not greater in this house than I am, nor has he kept back anything from me except yourself, because you are his wife. How then can I do this great wickedness and sin against God?" Joseph understood sin is offense against goodness of God Himself Joseph demonstrates need to make decisions ahead of time rather than "in the heat of battle." Waiting until the moment of temptation to decide what to do may well prove our undoing Consider the cost of sin: the blood of God's only Son He was made to be sin for us 2Corinthians 5:21 For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God. If thinking about the cost it took to redeem us does not persuade us to "be afraid" of sin and strive to sin not; nothing else will Genesis 39:9; 2Corinthians 5:21

Genesis 39:9; 2Corinthians 5:21 1Peter 2:21; 1Thessalonians 5:22 Three Keys To Victory Courage Psalm 119:11; Psalm 119:104 Fear KNOW OUR LIMITS This is the outgrowth of personal self-examination Christian does not see how close to sin can get without sinning 1Peter 2:11 Beloved, I urge you as sojourners and exiles to abstain from the passions of the flesh, which wage war against your soul. Like boater seeing how close to waterfall can get without going over Will quickly learn even best can allow passions to get out of control This is why young people do not need to be parked on a dark lane or be alone in a house with the opposite sex Might begin as apparently innocent matter can quickly turn into sin 1Thessalonians 5:22 Abstain from every form of evil. This principle also applies about whom we date Dangerous to date one you know has no Scriptural right to marry In too many cases, emotion overrules Scripture Now we hear, "I cannot give this person up, I love him." We do not "limit" the opportunity to sin when we act in these ways Genesis 39:9; 2Corinthians 5:21 Knowledge 1Peter 2:21; 1Thessalonians 5:22
