Armed with truth

Temptation is all around us. The action items above don’t just equip us to bear witness to others, but also to confront the temptation that surrounds us (1 Peter 5:8). Following Jesus’ example from when He was tempted in the desert, He responds to Satan’s tempting with Scripture (Matthew 4:4-6).

We can invoke the words of Jesus - "Do not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one" - when we are tempted (Matthew 6:13).
