The Storm Inside (Chapter 6)

Temptation is the seductive little voice that twists what you ___________ into what you ______________.

My biggest temptation: _________________________________

______________ YOU ARE BEING ___________________

You are only as strong as you are honest!

12 If you think you are standing strong, be careful not to fall. 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.
1 Corinthians 10:12-13 (NLT)

__________ TEMPTATION AS A _____________________

12 For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore, put on every piece of God’s armor so you will be able to resist the enemy in the time of evil. Then after the battle you will still be standing firm. Ephesians 6:12-13 (NLT)

My one thing to focus on this week is __________________

Suggested Daily Prayer:
“God, I choose today to give you my whole being. I surrender my mind to you. Give me the mind of Christ. Help me to only think on things that are excellent, pure and admirable and excellent, God. Give me the power to think on things consistent with your truth. God, I surrender my ears to you today that I would only let into my soul that which is consistent with your truth. God, I surrender my eyes to you that they only look on things that are pure.”

“Let my mouth speak only words pleasing to you. I give my heart to you, and ask for a pure heart. God, I submit my hands to you that they would be used to help people and to build your Kingdom. God, let my feet only go to places that are pleasing to you. God, I give every part of my body to you today, my life is yours. Use it as you see fit. In Jesus’ Name”
