God told me to tell those that are struggling with temptations to take it one day at a time.
Don't worry about what happened yesterday. Don't worry about overcoming that temptation tomorrow. Just focus on overcoming it today.
The Lord says, stay in his presence and allow him to help you. Please understand something.
It's the devil's job to fight you so that you fall back into that same sin.
But the Bible tells us that greater is he that is in you than he that is in the world.
Fighting this temptation is only going to come by the help of the Holy Spirit.
Be encouraged. The way that you sow, the way that you love on people, God will send that back to you.
And it may not always come back to the same people.
Hear me when I say this. Apple trees don't eat apples. Pear trees don't eat pears. What would happen if apple trees started eating the people that eat apples?
Pear trees starts eating the people that eat pears. The apple tree would no longer have a purpose because it consumed everything that it was called to pour into.
And we cannot cling to our assignments so much, even in our broken seasons, that we forget who is our sustainer, who is our protector. Who has our roots rooted deeply in the ground like a firm oak tree.
