LEARN AGAINST SIN

FAITH CAPSULE: See in the word, know not to become a victim of enticement of the devil. 

Luke 4

Without seeing in the word of God, enticement will occupy to lead into sin. The enemy of all man is the master of deception that has been around long enough to draw one into the sin of destruction.
Jesus had the experience of the enticement but could not become a failure just as Eve did.
Luke 4:1-4 documents the failure of the devil in his enticement of Jesus: “Then Jesus, being filled with the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, being tempted for forty days by the devil. And in those days He ate nothing, and afterward when they had ended, He was hungry. And the devil said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.” But Jesus answered him, saying, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.”  The enticement of the devil failed before Jesus. Focusing on every word of God is a key to avoid sin before God.
Today, be warned and wise to know that if Jesus experienced enticement of the enemy, no man is above cunning devil with enticement activity to lure man into sin.
King David, a man after the heart of God, could not escape but fell for sin.
Samson was blessed with strength by God but could not avoid the trap of the enticement by the devil.
Samson was a miracle child born with special instructions from God but was not an excuse to escape the device of enticement. 
The Bible documents in Judges 13:5, “For behold, you shall conceive and bear a son. And no razor shall come upon his head, for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from the womb; and he shall begin to deliver Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.” Samson ended up his life blinded because he could not see in the instruction of God to deliver him. 
As strong as Samson was, he became a victim of the enticement of the enemy when he failed to obey according to the Word of God. 
The enticement of the enemy brought down Samson from where God placed him. The Book of Judges 16:5 records, “And the lords of the Philistines came up to her and said to her, ‘Entice him, and find out where his great strength lies, and by what means we may overpower him, that we may bind him to afflict him; and every one of us will give you eleven hundred pieces of silver.’”  
Samson could not avoid himself from the cunning of the enticement of the enemy of man. 
God answers prayer today, pray and ask for the deliverance hand of God in every area of your life, not to become a victim of the enticement of the devil.
