Keep a watch out!!!!

God gives us a clear warning here:



1 Corinthians 10:12-13



12 Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed lest he fall. 13 No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.



As a Christian we have to be very careful. As we try to live our lives as the Lord directs us too we also are to gently guide others in their walk too. If we are not very careful though we can get to a point where we think we are so strong in our walk with the Lord that we can not fall. That is the warning here. If we get to that point we get lazy and can rely in our own strength instead of God's!! Next thing ya know BAM you have fallen to a temptation. The good news in these verses is there are no new temptations. Everything we will be tempted by has tempted somebody else. God is faithful to us and will not allow us to be tempted beyond what we can bear! Wow God loves us so much!!!! God will always provide a way of escape. Guess what??? That means it falls back on us to get away from the temptation....run from it!



So this morning keep a watch out and always be looking for that temptation....when you see him run!
