Lead Us Not into Temptation but Deliver Us from Evil

This week, we focused on Matthew 6:13, which asks God to "lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil." While God doesn't tempt us, He may allow trials that expose us to Satan’s attacks, as seen in Job and Peter’s experiences. To resist sin, we need to remember our identity as God's children and live in a way that reflects His holiness. Fleeing from temptation is key, as relying on our own strength is not enough. Instead, we must depend on God’s power to stand firm. As we run from temptation, we should pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace. Ultimately, Jesus teaches us to pray for God’s help, knowing He provides a way out of temptation.
