1 Corinthians 10:13 The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, He will show you a way out so that you can endure.

“Give me the strength to walk away, when another god tries to take Your place.” – Mali & Kirk Franklin

Some of us are so unwilling to let go of what does not honor God.  When we allow ourselves to be so attached to that object of desire that we refuse to let it go for God, we have made that desire a god, and placed more value on it than we do on God.  So, we pray, we determine, and we make a continuous effort to say, NO!, to those fleshly desires that try to take God’s place.

Ecclesiastes 3:17 I thought in my heart, “God will bring to judgment both the righteous and the wicked, for there will be a time for every activity, a time for every deed.”

Isn’t it great to know our God is so loving until He’s declared not to remember our sins after we ask for forgiveness (Hebrews 10:17). That means on the Day of Judgment God will have no recollection of the sins we (the righteous) committed while on earth and because of the blood of Jesus we are made righteous, pleasing, and acceptable in the sight of God.

God is not referring to the people who abuse His grace and mercy by blatantly committing sins and asking God for forgiveness. He is referring to the people who sincerely ask for forgiveness and make plans not to commit those sins again.

Praise God for His grace and mercy that passes mere human understanding
