S – No temptation has come upon you except what is common to humanity. But God is faithful; he will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation he will also provide the way out so that you may be able to bear it.
1 Corinthians 10:13 CSB
O – Commentary:
After kicking out the props of false security, Paul pointed toward the One on whom the Corinthians could rely. The temptations that seized the Corinthians were like those people had always faced. They could be met and endured by depending on God, who is faithful. Part of the Corinthian problem, of course, was that some in the face of temptation were not looking for a way out by endurance, but a way in for indulgence
“1 Corinthians,” in The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures
A – We all face temptations. The enemy continues to tempt, accuse and lie every day. We need to put on the armor of God. We need to know God’s word and promises as part of our language to ourselves. We need to do our part and expect God to do his so we do not yield to the temptations.
R – Heavenly Father, you are a big God. Empower us today to face the lies and temptations with all that provide through your Word and our relationship with you. There will be battles and challenges today – we want to win. Thank you for the promise of your presence and power.
