Temptation
      1  Watch  and  pray  that  you  enter  not  into

      temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the
      flesh  is  weak.  2  So  let  him  that  thinks  he
      stands  take  heed  lest  he  falls.  There  has  no
      temptation taken you but such as is common to
      man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you
      to  be  tempted  above  what  you  are  able;  but
      will with the temptation also make a way to

      escape, that you may be able to bear it.


      3 Blessed is the man that endures temptation:
      when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of
      life,  which  the  Lord  has  promised  them  that
      love him. Let no man say, when he is tempted, I
      am  tempted  of  God:  God  cannot  be  tempted
      with evil, nor does he tempt any man, but every
      man is tempted when he is drawn away of his

      own lust and enticed. God resists the proud
      but  gives  grace  to  the  humble.  Submit
      yourselves to God. Resist the devil, and he will
      flee from you… humble yourselves in the

      sight of the Lord, and he shall lift you up.
