5 Assurances for Christians
3. Assurance of Victory
Still another attack from Satan may be along this line: He will whisper to you,
“You have life, all right, but you are a weakling; you have always been a weakling.”
He will remind you of some sin which has gripped you for years. He will point out something of which you are keenly aware, and say,
“You are weak, and you will not be able to stand against this temptation. You may be able to stand against others, but not this one.”
How will you answer him? Will you attempt to reason? Will you try to produce your own arguments? Will you run to see what other people say? Or will you rely on God’s Word?
The third verse, 1 Corinthians 10:13, is chosen especially to meet this attack of Satan.
No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful, He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.1 Corinthians 10:13
This gives assurance of victory. God promises victory. It belongs to you as His child. Believe Him, and you will see how God does things that are impossible with men. It will thrill you to see chains of lifetime habits broken by His mighty power.
