I believe that the closer we become to Christ the more we see the dangers/temptations of this world. I pray for the wisdom and eyes of Christ to see this world for what it is. It has helped me avoid temptations and even when you fall into one, it gives your sight to see the way out. The closer I am to God the more clearly I see the world.

Hey Rick! It helps to remember that temptation comes with a choice — it isn’t mandatory or required that we accept what it offers. Evil wants you to believe there isn’t an option and that you are powerless. Kevin is on target - it’s a mindset. We approach the day and the temptation from a position of strength and victory. “The way out” can be different for each person. There is always a choice. Just pray in that moment of temptation that the Spirit shows you the way out.

We fight FROM victory, not FOR victory. The Lord has already won. When we realize this we have a better understanding of where we stand with the evil of this world. The Lord has already won, so have we!!

At the end of 1st Corinthians 10:13 it reads that the Lord provides a way out of the temptation, where and how do we look for that so that we don’t fall?
115/365: How To Win The Day
"For the Lord your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to give you victory." ~Deuteronomy 20:4
Just as Moses instructed the Israelites to put away fear and doubt when facing their enemy. Our unchanging and faithful God also goes with us into our fight against the enemy.
God has delivered the final victory for us through Jesus Christ. As for the daily battles, God also gives us His spirit, wisdom, and power to overcome temptation and evil.
