"Temptations"
Now listen to Me, My children, in order for most of you to never be tempted in this world, you would have to be dead. What I am saying therefore is this, it is not so much the temptation that gets you, it is the yielding to and succumbing to the temptation that makes it bad and very often sinful. There are the temptations having to do with sight, temptations having to do with hearing, temptations having to do with taste, and of course, there are the temptations that deal with touch. In other words My children, temptations can come at you from any and every direction, so one has to be very strong in order to resist them. When it comes to the act of resistance, it would make all the sense in the world to go to The Only One Who is able to resist every temptation that is known to mankind, and that is The Lord JESUS CHRIST Himself.
Be wise therefore My children by looking to The Lord JESUS CHRIST as your strength in and through all temptations. I realize that a lot of you have yet to learn what that means because you are not used to doing it, but it is somewhat very simple. Whenever you feel yourselves being tempted to do, be, taste, or go and you know it to be wrong, then just ask The Lord JESUS for His strength to help you get past whatever the temptation might be. Know too that not every temptation is the same in intensity, but all of them can be very unsettling at the time they come upon you. Some temptations can be so destructive if they are yielded to, as to practically ruin your whole life without someone being willing to forgive you for your trespass. The best way to try to handle any temptation is through JESUS CHRIST and My Word and the power they wield. Whatever the temptations might be, the chances of defeating and/or overcoming them would be much greater with The Lord JESUS CHRIST in your corner, and that is where He will be if you will only trust and believe in His Holy and Most Precious Name.
AMEN
