Knowledge alone doesn’t keep you from sin—resisting temptation requires more. You can know the secret yet lack the will & discipline to apply it. The last thing Jesus did before His crucifixion was pray—what an example of living in the Spirit! In Matthew 26:41–42, He warned Peter and the disciples to watch and pray, yet they fell asleep. Before temptation, there is always spiritual apathy. Beware of spiritual slumber!Peter fell into temptation, not because of a lack of knowledge. He knew what was coming, yet he denied Jesus. Even in the Garden of Eden—the most perfect place, having full knowledge, Adam and Eve sinned. Victory over temptation comes from strengthening your inner man, and that happens in the place of prayer. There, you receive an impartation of Divine Life.Death and life are in the power of the tongue. The worst attack was not Job’s children dying; it came from his wife—in the form of words. Similarly, Peter’s downfall came through his confession—just as his elevation did. Judas was brought down because of his confession, while Peter was brought up by his confession. Your confessions have power in the realms of the Spirit! Words uttered under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit are the greatest weapon you possess. Resistance to the enemy comes from the Word birthed in your spirit. It becomes a fortress against temptation. You can speak your way out of temptation & trouble. Fear cannot be your primary motivation for a holy life. Love for God must be your primary drive for holiness. Faith in your heart and words in your mouth are power. Resistance from the enemy comes from the spirit of the Word. May the Word make way for your elevation.
