God has many promises for you. He said in His word, you will have more than enough than what your ancestors had. This gives us the assurance not to worry about what our future may bring. He Himself is with you. The God of Israel gives you courage and strength, and He will never leave you. (Biblical foundation: Deut. 30:5, Deut. 31:5; Psalm 68:35)
But certain promises of the Bible are being referred to as IF-THEN form. If you'll DO his commands, with all your heart, His promises will be for you. All good promises of the LORD will happen to you. BUT choose to disobey the LORD, curse will be upon you. Terrible things will happen to you in the future, if you wanted to do what the Lord God says that is wrong. To overcome, Ask God for wisdom and He'll show you the way.
(Biblical foundation: Deut. 30:6-10; Deut. 31:29; James 1:5)
Remember, Temptations doesn't come from God. It comes from your flesh, fueled by the arrows of the enemy being shot into your mind. Satan cannot read your mind but he can provide suggestions to lure you to sin. We should confess the word of God in this times. Confessing it brings you victory over sin.
(Biblical foundation: James 1:12)
Personal Testimony regarding temptations/lust of the flesh.
In my PC, there's an app on Windows that is called sticky notes. I paste verse there everyday such as this:
You know that when your faith is tested, you learn to be patient in suffering. If you let that patience work in you, the end result will be good. You will be mature and complete. You will be all that God wants you to be.
James 1:3-4
Whenever Satan and his demons suggest an immoral thing (lusting after a woman), I immediately recite that verse and IT GIVES me PEACE and VICTORY! I overcame that temptation through Christ. THE WORD of GOD is so powerful!
So Brothers and Sisters in Christ, I encourage you to confess the WORD of God over your life.
God bless.
