a way out of the most tempting of situations and God will always provide that
door of escape from the sins of the world.
Psalm 119:9-10: How can a
young man keep his way pure? By living according to your word. I seek you with
all my heart; do not let me stray from your commands.
Psalm 119:11 : I have
hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you.
Matthew 6:13 : And lead
us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.
Matthew 26:41: Watch and
pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the
body is weak.
Mark 1:12-13: At once the
Spirit sent him out into the desert and he was in the desert forty days, being
tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals, and angels attended him.
Luke 11:4: Forgive us our
sins, for we also forgive everyone who sins against us. And lead us not into
temptation.
Luke 22:40: On reaching
the place, he said to them, “Pray that you will not fall into temptation.”
Luke 22:45-46: When he
rose from prayer and went back to the disciples, he found them asleep,
exhausted from sorrow. “Why are you sleeping?” he asked them. “Get up and pray
so that you will not fall into temptation.”
1 Corinthians 6:18: Flee
from sexual immorality. All other sins a man commits are outside his body, but
he who sins sexually sins against his own body.
1 Corinthians 7:4-6: The
wife’s body does not belong to her alone but also to her husband. In the same
way, the husband’s body does not belong to him alone but also to his wife. Do
not deprive each other except by mutual consent and for a time, so that you may
devote yourselves to prayer. Then come together again so that Satan will not
tempt you because of your lack of self-control. I say this as a concession, not
as a command.
1 Corinthians 10:13: No
temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he
will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted,
he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.

live by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the sinful nature.
Galatians 6:1: Brothers,
if someone is caught in a sin, you who are spiritual should restore him gently.
But watch yourself, or you may also be tempted.
Ephesians 5:3: But
amongst you there must not be even a hint of sexual immorality, or of any kind
of impurity, or of greed, because these are improper for God’s holy people.
1 Thessalonians 3:4-5: In
fact when we were with you, we kept telling you that we would be persecuted.
And it turned out that way, as you well know. For this reason, when I could stand
it no longer, I sent Timothy to find out about your faith. I was afraid that in
some way the tempter might have tempted you and our efforts might have been
useless.
1 Timothy 6:9-10: People
who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and
harmful desires that plunge men into ruin and destruction. For the love of
money is the root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have
wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.
Hebrews
2:17-18: For this reason he had to be made like his brothers in every way,
in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to
God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people. Because he
himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being
tempted.
James 1:2-4: Consider it
pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know
that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish
its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.
James 21:13-14: When tempted,
no one should say, ‘Good is tempting me.” For Good cannot be tempted by evil,
nor does he tempt anyone; but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire,
he is dragged away and enticed.
James 4:7: Submit
yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
1 Peter 5:8-9: Be

because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the
same kind of sufferings.

the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world, our faith.

I was afflicted I went astray, but now I keep Your word. I know, OO Lord that
Your judgments are right, and that in faithfulness You have afflicted me.

on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of
the devil.
1 John 4:4, NKJV: You Are
of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is
greater than he who is in the world.
