Consider That It Is Not Failing In

Our Great Pattern Hath Showed Us What Our Deportment Ought To Be In All Suggestions And Temptations. When The Devil Showed Him "all The Kingdoms Of The World And The Glory Of Them," To Tempt Him Withal, He Did Not Stand And Look Upon Them, Viewing Their Glory, And Pondering Their Empire.... But Instantly, Without Stay, He Cries, "get Thee Hence, Satan." Meet Thy Temptation In Its Entrance With Thoughts Of Faith Concerning Christ On The Cross; This Will Make It Sink Before Thee. Entertain No Parley, No Dispute With It, If Thou Wouldst Not Enter Into It.

The Indulgence Of One Sin Opens The Door To Further Sins. The Indulgence Of One Sin Diverts The Soul From The Use Of Those Means By Which All Other Sins Should Be Resisted.

We Shall Not Benefit From Reading The Old Testament Unless We Look For And Meditate On The Glory Of Christ In Its Pages.

If We Do Not Abide In Prayer, We Will Abide In Temptation. Let This Be One Aspect Of Our Daily Intercession: "god, Preserve My Soul, And Keep My Heart And All Its Ways So That I Will Not Be Entangled." When This Is True In Our Lives, A Passing Temptation Will Not Overcome Us. We Will Remain Free While Others Lie In Bondage.

We Speak Much Of God, Can Talk Of Him, His Ways, His Works, His Counsels, All The Day Long; The Truth Is, We Know Very Little Of Him.
