When the Urge Is Too Strong

The Bible says God won't allow us to be tempted beyond what we can bear (1 Corinthians 10:13). Sometimes that seems impossible—especially when temptation is so strong. Like you, Jesus has been there. He faced the most intense temptation anyone has ever known, but He never sinned. In this message, we’re learning how to resist temptation like Jesus.

ABOUT THIS MESSAGE
Have you ever been hurt by a friend? Jesus has. Maybe you feel like God isn't listening? Jesus knows what that’s like. No matter what you’re facing, Jesus understands because He’s Been There.

Thank you God for sending this message for me today!
I'm a new Christian and I recently went through a really hard time I lost money and got screwed over in my job then I became sleep deprived and started hurting really bad.
I was so weak I stopped reading the word and I fell into sin and started lusting for a few days.
I finally got ten hours sleep last night and I woke up feeling new.
Jesus provided me with this message this morning.
Please pray for me guys.
I'm giving my life to Jesus!

I’m having a real hard time getting over a corn addiction, it’s getting in the way of everything in my life, and during this year I’ve come so far from who I used to be and I’m constantly in fear that the addiction is going to ruin everything. It is thanks to Jesus that I continue to have hope, to have faith. I believe in him, I am weak, forgive me lord. Please save me🙏🏻 I love you Lord, AMEN
