JOY in TEMPATION.

It is Christmas season all around the world. Every where the celebration happens because the Lord Himself shall give you a sign. Behold, the virgin will conceive and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call His name Immanuel. All of us know the meaning of “IMMANUEL” i.e. GOD with us. Why from the genesis GOD is willing to be with us always? Is it only GOD’s need that he has created the mankind for his companionship? The mankind can live with him and without him also. This is often the argument given by person who do not understand the companionship of Satan i.e. Devil. This world is a vicious cycle of temptations made by devil and his fallen angels to trap mankind into all kind of malice, hatred, jealousy, sickness, sorrow, grief and despair. Once a mankind enters into this trap, the pathway of hell becomes closer and closer. Some people often argue that temptations are always there, and if GOD surely knows about it, why does it allow it to happen in the life of a believer in Christ? What does the Master Lord JESUS CHRIST want to teach us thorough it, the bible says count it all JOY when you fall into different kinds of temptations. When we go deeper into the subject of temptation: HOW you can understand that it is a temptation? Because majority of people do not understand that they are confronting temptations? This awareness only comes when an individual is growing in a personal relationship with GOD thorough reading the word of GOD which reveals about our saviour Christ Jesus. When an individual grows, he/ she develop faith. Satan gets disturbed and afraid of this growing faith in Christ and therefore put a believer in testing of faith which works out patience. This patience helps to build strong foundation of a faith in a believer which should last till last breadth of life is breathed by a believer on this face of earth. One more thing the word of GOD exposes the root cause of temptation i.e. Let no one being tempted say, I am tempted from God. For God is not tempted by evils, and He tempts no one. But each one is tempted by his lusts, being drawn away and seduced by them. Then when lust has conceived, it brings forth sin. And sin, when it is fully formed, brings forth death. So let us understand the bottom line: “Blessed is the man, who endures temptation, because having been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord Jesus Christ has promised to those who love Him.” AMEN!
