1 John 5:12-13 The one who has the Son has life. The one who doesn't have the Son of God, does not have life. I say these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know you have eternal life.

Promises of God (10)
Matthew 6:33 But seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. (ESV)
Romans 8:28 We know that all things work together for the good of those who love God: those who are called according to His purpose.
Jeremiah 29:11 "For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light as He Himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.
1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Proverbs 3:-6 Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. (NIV)
I've loved this past week's verse --- it has been a source of confidence for me this week, a week that has been hectic and sometimes hard to handle. But in my heart, those words would spring forth and remind me that I have a God I can trust with every area of my life --- the parts that make sense to me, and the crazy, non-sensible, hard-to-get-my-hands around parts. When I don't understand, He does. When I don't see down the road, He does. And I can trust Him to nudge me, and sometimes shove me, down the path that He is laying out for me when I acknowledge Him and surrender to His Spirit working within me.
Now tonight's promise! A lengthy verse, but one that flows forward with an assurance that we will learn to lean on as each day offers so many ways to stray from God's good path....
1 Corinthians 10:13 No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to humanity. God is faithful and He will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation He will provide a way of escape, so that you are able to bear it.
Now isn't that a good follow up verse to Proverbs 3:5-6. Not only does God have a great path laid out for us, but when things try to pull us off the path, He always gives us an escape route to avoid the pitfall and stay on course. He is a good, good God!
Revelation 4:11 You are worthy, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power, for you created all things, and by your will they were created and have their being.

I enjoyed this past week's verse also. I learned not to try and lean on my own understanding. God is good and He leads me through crisis. He comforts me and I feel secure and loved in His son, Christ Jesus. You are right, Christ's love leads us away from temptation and His Word provides us with the ways of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is helping me to stay "on the straight and narrow". I only need to speak to God, and ask for His guidance, the rest He takes care of. I trust and obey - because there is truly no other way.
