*Understanding Temptation*
4~/22~/07 CC~/AM
1 Corinthians 10:13
 
Introduction: 1 Corinthians 10:13 (NASB95) No temptation has overtaken you but such as is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, so that you will be able to endure it.
Our text speaks of a very common problem that we as human beings seem to face almost daily.
Temptation plagues us.
Paul gave some instructions to the Corinthians that are just as timely for us today.
He wanted to see them defeat the propensity of man to falling to temptation.
We need to understand what we can do about it too.

1.
*It is inevitable*        (No temptation has overtaken you)
 
a.
When was the last time that you were tempted?
Can you remember?
It probably was not that long ago.
b.
When will you cease to be tempted?
Probably pretty close to the last breath we take.
c.
We need to understand that we can count on being tempted for the rest of our lives.
d.
As it is inevitable that we will be tempted, we must understand that we do not have to fall prey to the temptation when it comes our way.
We do need to be ready and looking for it so we are not caught off guard and defeated by the temptation.
e.
Example: if you are on a diet you will be tempted to cheat.
Something will come into your path at some point in the day that you will have the opportunity to eat that you are not supposed to.
It is inevitable.
How will you respond?
You can rationalize and give yourself permission to eat it.
You can look around to se who is watching and eat it.
You can call your accountability partner and ask for help.
You can walk away.
You can substitute your desire for a cookie with a stick of celery.
You enact your pre-determined plan.
You can not help the fact that you were attracted to the cookie but it would be wrong for you to give into the temptation and eat the cookie!
It was inevitable that you would see something that you would like to eat, so you must have a plan for when it happens.
