1. Detect your approaching enemy
If you feel you have incoming enemy, change your course.
2. Determine your enemy
Identify what kind of enemy you are facing.
"In order that Satan might not outwit us. For we are not unaware of his
schemes."
2 Corinthians 2:11
3. Don't resist
Don't ever think of fighting the temptation. Our enemy is the greatest fighter ever. Satan fight for generations.
"For this reason, when I could stand it no longer, I sent to find out about
your faith. I was afraid that in some way the tempter might have tempted
you and our efforts might have been useless."
1 Thessalonians 3:5
4. Make a escape route as soon as possible
If your temptation is about thoughts, try to change a subject. if you are a gossiper, try to sing a praise song to God.
5. Call a friend
It's time to ask for help to our Friend in Highest Place. Make a rescue prayer.
"For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our
weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as
we are—yet was without sin. Let us then approach the throne of grace with
confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our
time of need.
Hebrews 4:15-16
6. Time to use your weapon
If you can't make a escape route, it's time to use your powerful verses in the bible. It is very effective if you always carrying the sword of the spirit. Like Jesus did when He was tempted by satan, He used the Word of God. And don't forget the shield of Faith.
"We know that anyone born of God does not continue to sin; the one who
was born of God keeps him safe, and the evil one cannot harm him.
1 John 5:18
Tips: Remember, Don't fight with temptations without God.
