Growing Through Temptation and Succeeding One of the problems in our lives today was sin, and it was caused by temptation . Most people succeed after going through temptation, some don't. Temptation is something really interesting to you and you want to know more about it or experience it, but once you do, it will only last for a short time and it will surely bring you suffering. The first temptation in this world took place right from the beginning in the Garden of Eden. Eve was told not to go to the tree but she disobeyed God. She was curious about what the snake told her and ate the apple with Adam. They were happy for a short time and God made them suffer for what they did. It was a trap of Satan to destroy us wherever we were and weaken us in our spiritual growth, but we were fortunate to have God and Him always there for us. He also uses temptations to test our faith in Him and develop us to overcome them. All temptations give people a chance not to suffer but to be better. When we grow through temptation it gives us the right to choose good over evil, but to know this we must understand the characters of Jesus and develop them in our lives and this was the fruit of the Holy Spirit. When we applied His characters of love, joy, peace, patience, goodness, gentleness, gentleness, self-control, and faithfulness, we would make the right choices every time we encountered temptations (Warren, 2002, p. 130). (Mayhew, 2000, p. 131) Satan came to Jesus in the great desert and tempted him and said, "Jesus, you came to this earth to remain as a normal human being, but there is a way easy to satisfy your basic human needs. needs.' Satan's tactics are always the same to tempt us. He can...... middle of paper ...... attack you. (1 Peter 5:8) Our faith in God must be strong, speaking to Him through prayer every time. We must also involve ourselves in religious activities to maintain our relationship with God. If we have done all of these things to avoid temptation or worked through it, we will still find success.
