Prestonwood West
Home Bible Fellowship - Euless
James 1:13-18 was our topic last time and we had some good discussions on avoiding temptation. We had some good discussions on ways to avoid temptation. Some ways I wrote down are finding accountability, staying in the word and in prayer, taking responsibility, and looking at the big picture. A great point that was brought up was Charles Stanley's HALT acronym which stands for Hungry, Angle, Lonely, and Tired. These are times when we can be most vulnerable to temptation. I copied a link below to one of his sermons where he talks about this.

Great verse from this week-
No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
1. Cor. 10:13
