God's Words When You Are Tempted or Have Trials

1 Cor 10: 12, 13
No temptation is too great because God will provide a way of escape and all your brothers and sisters around the world have the same exact temptations.

Hebrews 4: 14-16
Jesus our high priest was tempted in all areas the same as we, though without sinning, and can sympathize with our weaknesses. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace to find mercy and grace to help us in time of need.

Hebrews 2:18
Because He Himself has been tempted, He is able to nurture those who are tempted.

2nd Peter 2: 9
The Lord knows just how to get you out of trouble when you’re tempted.

Romans 6:14
Sin has no more power over you, because you are no longer under the law but under grace.

Psalm 119:11
I have hidden Your word in my heart so that I will not sin against You.

James 1:13,14
God doesn’t tempt us. We are lured and tempted by our own desires.

Proverbs 28:13
You cannot progress or prosper by being in denial about your sin. If you face them, confess and forsake them, God will show mercy.

1 John 1:9
What has the power to cleanse us from sin? Confessing our sins. He is faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

1 Peter 5: 8,9
Be sober, be vigilant because your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking what he may devour. Resist him firm in your faith knowing that the same experience of suffering belongs to your brethren throughout the world.

Ephesians 6
Be strong in the Lord and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. Stand therefore, having the girdle of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the helmet of salvation, the shoes of the gospel of peace, the sword of the spirit, which is the word of God, and above all, take the shield of faith. With this you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.

James 4: 7
Submit yourself to God, resist the devil and he will flee from you.

1 John 4: 4
Greater is he who is in you than he who is in the world.
(Jesus said, be of good cheer – I have overcome the world)

James 1: 2,3,12
Be happy when you encounter various temptations and trials. The trying of your faith develops patience. The man who endures trials will receive the crown of life, which the Lord has promised to those who love him.

Jude 24, 25
To him who is able to keep you from falling and to present you blameless before His presence with great joy, to the only wise God, our Saviour, be glory and majesty.

Hebrews 10:22
Let us draw near with a true heart, in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience, by his blood, and our bodies washed with pure water.

1 Peter 1: 6,7
You are full of joy even though it may be necessary for a season that you are weighed down with many trials and temptations, because the trying of your faith, being more precious than gold, which is an element in the earth that does not last forever, will bring you to praise and honor and glory when Jesus Christ appears.
