He brought shame, guilt and the penalty of death in the garden. He tempted Job to curse God. He tempted David with Bathsheba. He tempted Jesus in the desert. He desired to sift Peter as wheat. He is a liar and a thief, yet we fall for his temptations time and again.
But the good news is:
"No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. 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 endure it." – 1 Corinthians 10:13
The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy. Never let him come back and lie to you again. Emmerce yourself in truth, and the truth will set you free.
Seeking and Following,

You go nowhere by accident. Wherever you go, God is sending you, wherever you are, God has put you there; He has a purpose in your being there. Christ who dwells within you has something He wants to do through you wherever you are. Believe this and go in His grace and love and power.
