The Temptation Prayer
Most of us have a primary temptation that has plagued us for many years. For too many of us that primary temptation has been our downfall and for many years we were defeated in this area.
Now we are struggling to be free, but the temptation keeps coming back to us and it becomes frustrating. We agree with Apostle Paul in Romans 7:15, “I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do.” Does that sound like you? If it does, this pamphlet holds good news for you.
Many years ago when I was struggling with a behavioral addiction in my life I went through a period of intensive searching. I was making a fearless and searching moral inventory of myself and was discouraged at what I was discovering.
When I became fully aware that I couldn’t be victorious over my addiction alone I realized that it was only through the power of God that I would ever be free.
During that time I discovered a very important passage of scripture. It was 2 Corinthians 12:7-10. The part that stood out to me was that When Paul appealed to God concerning his weakness, or “thorn in my flesh” as he called it, God simply told him, “My grace is sufficient.”
In God’s answer to Paul he gave us tremendous insight into the process of living in victory over our addictions. In verse 9 God says, “My power is made perfect in weakness.” God is literally telling us that the weaker we are in any area, the stronger he becomes in us and if we will rely upon his strength he will give us his power to overcome.
In gaining an understanding of this process God gave me a prayer that has been vital in my restoration process and has helped many people that have used it in their own restoration. I call it the temptation prayer. It provides a format for praying when we are in temptation in the area of our primary weakness.
