sermonette: Temptations: Trials and Tests
God Tests Without Enticing To Sin
Ted E. Bowling
Given 14-Jun-03; Sermon #617s; 13 minutes
Description: (hide)
Ted Bowling focuses upon the portion of the model or outline prayer in Matthew 6 dealing with trials or temptation. We are not to desire trials or temptations, but we should feel joy that the trials produce godly character - especially the elusive quality of patience. When we have built these godly characteristics as a result of trials, we can better serve others. Satan works hard to destroy this precious commodity of character. Only when we admit our frail humanity to God in prayer will He give us the strength to meet these Satan - inspired carnal impulses and weaknesses. We need to be praying for one another for the strength to handle temptations.
