Temptation and how to overcome it

Temptation is a time of trial. It is a time of test. You can not be tempted above you powers. God can't tempt any man neither he tempted any man.
The first point here is to point out those who were tempted in the Bible but failed. The first is David. David was tempted from what he saw. He saw a woman bathing 🛀. He could not resist.Another one is Gehazi he was tempted of possession that Naman brought to his Master.That cost him to be leprous and he lost the priesthood. Absalom was tempted of power.He could not resist that cost him his life. You should not be intoxicated by power. Judas was tempted by money 💰 be sold our Lord.Solomon was tempted by women 👭 he could not resist but was carried away by woman 👭 and their idols.
However there are characters in the Bible who  were tempted but overcame the temptations.
The first is Abraham. Another one is Job he was tempted even until death but he overcame.Joseph was tempted of a woman 👩  but he resisted and he overcame. Our Lord Jesus overcame the temptations of the devil when he was tempted thrice.
 The last point is how to over the temptation. To overcome temptation you use the word of God. That is what Jesus used to overcome the devil.You can overcome temptation by been prayerful. You can overcome temptation my always doing your devotion. You can overcome temptation by always fellowshiping with brethren.You can overcome temptation my sharing the things that God has done for you. You can overcome temptation by always pleading the blood of Jesus. Note that the sources of the temptation is the devil and sometimes the devil  uses human beings.

The Teacher's as Midwives

             The teachers as midwives,in the Bible it was in the old testament that the midwives were mention in Egypt.The midwives were the Israelites midwives who help in the delivery of babes and nursed babes.Teacher's are instructor's.                When Pharaoh notice that the Israelites who were multiplying,he asked "how possible were they multiplying".

The word given to men from God

            The word we are talking about is the word of God.It is particularly the holy scriptures.It is given to me to profit.              Men in the topic means mankind.              That is why the Bible says, thy word have I hid in my heart that I might not sin against thee.The word is given to be hidden in the heart and to keep men from sin.               The Bible says thy word is life thy word is Spirit.You know that song that says"Thy word is life,thy word is Spirit write your word oh Lord on the table of my heart,thy word is life thy word is Spirit write your word oh Lord on the table of my heart".               The Bible says "Thy word is a lamp to my feet and a light onto my part.When the scriptures is a lamp unto your feet and a light to your path your feet will not slide.You will not fall,fail or falter.I...

                 Israel at the time of Judges 1 and 2 didn't obey the instructions Joshua and God.Joshua before his death commanded them to serve the Lord that if they don't they will face negative consequences from God.Joshua commanded the children if Israel to serve God.                   God commanded the children of Israel to destroy the inhabitants of the land of Canaan, they didn't obey completely. They obey particularly. They didn't destroy the people, drive the people out and the things God told they to destroy,because they collected tributes from the inhabitants of the Land.                 God told the children of Israel that because they didn't obey God the people of the land they drive out will become thorns and thistle to the children of Israel. This was the same with Saul. God told Saul to destroy the Children of the Amalakites and destroy every...
