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.
