U Jamesu 1:12, we read that the man that endures temptation is blessed, jer kada mu se sudi, primiće krunu života, which the Lord has promised to them that love Him. Temptations will come in life. Christians are not excluded from the temptations in life. How will Christians be tempted? How to deal with temptation in life according to the Bible?
Everyone has to deal with temptation
Blago čovjeku koji trpi iskušenje: jer kada mu se sudi, primiće krunu života, which the Lord hath promised to them that love Him. Let no man say when he is tempted, U iskušenju sam Boga: Jer Bog ne može biti u iskušenju sa zlom, neither tempts He any man: Ali svaki čovjek je u iskušenju, Kad se izvlači iz vlastite požude, and enticed. Then when lust hath conceived, it brings forth sin: i grijeh, kada je gotov, brings forth death (James 1:12-15)
Sin is disobedience to the words and will of God and obedience to the words and đavolja volja. In the previous post Grešiti ili ne grešiti, that’s the decision, Jesus commanded to sin no more. Stoga, you have been given the power (autoritet) to rule over sin and resist the temptation that leads to sin.
Svako, uključujući i tebe, will be tempted in life. Your job is to resist temptation and don’t give in to temptation.
When you resist temptation and stay obedient to the words of God, you will receive the crown of life.
Jesus promised the crown of life to those, SZO voli Ga.
To znači, that the crown of life will be given to those, who will keep and do His commandments and say ‘no’ to temptation, and ‘no’ griješiti.
You will be tempted because you have an enemy; Đavo. The devil shall always try to get you back into his kingdom and destroy your life.
The only way to get you back into his kingdom is if you listen to his words and obey his words and the lusts of your flesh and sin.
Man is tempted when he is drawn away of his own lust
Neka niko ne kaže kad je u iskušenju, U iskušenju sam Boga: Jer Bog ne može biti u iskušenju sa zlom, neither tempteth He any man: Ali svaki čovjek je u iskušenju, Kad se izvlači iz vlastite požude, i enter. Onda kad je požuda zamislila, donosi grijeh: i grijeh, kada je gotov, donijeti smrt (James 1:13-15).
The devil will always tempt you and try to get you back into your old former habits and your old former life, which was full of sin. It all starts with the lust of the flesh. When lust is conceived, it produces sin and sin produces death.
Kako se nositi sa iskušenjem?
Kako se nositi sa iskušenjem? Pa, it is important to recognize in your life how lust enters and avoid that. That way you won’t be tempted and be led into temptation. Is it that simple to deal with temptation? Da, it is that simple, if you really hate sin and want to remove sin from your life. Because if you still love your sins, then you won’t be able to get rid of your sins.
When you say with your mouth: “I don’t want to do this”, but in your heart, you think: “I like it, I don’t want to give this up”, then it will be impossible to get rid of it. When the temptation comes, you will give in to the temptation.
People can pray for you over and over again to break the power of sin over your life, but the enemy will always try and try and will never give up. Stoga ti are the only one, who can stop it. Ti si ta, who can resist lust and resist temptation. Ne postoji niko drugi, who can do it for you.
Don’t fulfill the lust of the flesh, but fulfill the will of God
The way to avoid temptation is to keep walking after the Spirit. Because when you walk after the Spirit, you will not fulfill the lusts of your flesh. Therefore seek those things which are above and not those things which are upon this earth. Get your eyes off of yourself and get your eyes on Jesus Christ and His Kingdom.
Izgradite se u svojoj presvetoj vjeri. Speak in tongues, brz, i moliti. Feed and obnovi svoj um with the Word of God so that you become strong (duhovno) and resist temptation, and kill the deeds of the flesh.
