Article WordDigest: Dealing With Isolated Temptations 3 Weigh Your Desires
DEC 10, 2017 LISTEN

"but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed"

[James 1:14] NIV
We will continue the topic today with desires.
James in his letter to the twelve tribes of all nations cautioned them not allow their evil desire plunge them into sin.

To desire for something means what?
Desire is a strong feeling of wanting to do or have something.

As strong as it might be to a large extent controls our whole being.

People are tempted because of their own desires.
Desiring for something could be good or bad.
In view of that there is always a strong force.
And as human as we are our needs are unlimited.
There is always a room for more.
But we have the power to control as and when that strong feeling arises.

Whatever the desire maybe weight them before you take a decision.

Because you could be tempted in isolation by that strong feeling or wanting to have something.

Each day let us weigh our desires as and when they come.

Be informed.
Prayer
Dear God, help us know you more and walk in your counsel in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Amen.
