TEMPTATION
Every day in so many ways, we are tempted. Satan never stops trying to tempt us to sin. It may be little things, or big things, but he never will stop until the day he is put into the lake of fire. Many people think that being tempted is sin. It is not a sin to be tempted. It is sin when we yield to the temptation.
Every choice we make starts in our soul. We hear, see, taste, touch and smell with our senses. Temptations come in these areas. We have to train ourselves when temptations come to not give in to them.
It is normal for any human being to be tempted with things that are not good for them. In fact, that is Satan’s job to tempt us! God tells us in I Cor. 10:13,
“There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer (allow) you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.”
HE (God) always gives us a way of escape from temptations.
The choice is ours. We can choose to think on wrong things, look at wrong things, listen to wrong things, eat wrong things, and touch and smell wrong things that tempt us. How do we stop the temptation? We train our minds to say NO! We train our eyes not to look! We train our hands not to touch! Just like physical training, it is not easy in the beginning, but the more we exercise our senses to do things God’s way, the easier it will become.
In I Cor 10:13 it says that God always gives us a way of escape. In other words, Satan sets the trap, but God gives us a way out.
Don’t buy the lie that you have sinned when Satan tempts you. Temptations will come, but that isn’t sin. It is only sin when you yield to the temptation. Then and only then is it sin. Don’t entertain the temptations that Satan brings your way. Refuse to think on them and be led by Holy Spirit! Use your spiritual weapons to cast down thoughts and be free!

GIFT OF TONGUES
AND INTERPRETATION OF TONGUES
These two are companion gifts that work in tandem. The “message in tongues” is an oracle of God just like the message from the gift of prophesy. (see yesterday’s Newsletter article 5-8-2020). It is usually delivered in the same manner; however, it requires an interpretation in order for it to be understood. The interpreter is often a different person as this is the surest sign that it is from Holy Spirit; however, it could also be from the same person that gave the message in tongues (especially if no other interpreter is present).
These two gifts together are equivalent to the one gift of prophecy. In either case, it is a word of God delivered by Holy Spirit to the people. It is supernatural. It does not come from the speaker’s mind or own thoughts; it comes through the speaker by unction from Holy Spirit.
There may be more than one interpreter present. When one renders the interpretation, it is likely that anyone else present who “operates” in that same gift will also know that the interpretation is accurate. Sometimes an interpretation does not come. That is usually because sometimes someone that God wants to use hesitates to do it. If they have never interpreted before, there may be a real apprehension about it, a “fear” of stepping into the “new” unknown. The first time to be used in this way may take a “giant leap of faith” as Holy Spirit might give you only the first two or three words to speak, so you wonder, “surely this must not be for me.” He is testing your obedience to His leading. If you respond by speaking out these two or three words, He promptly gives you more. A “first timer’s” fear is a fear of failure; speak the two or three words that came to your mind and if nothing else comes; that is the fear. But, if in faith you speak those words, more will follow. After this first time, you gain confidence that you heard from Holy Spirit. Now Holy spirit can trust you with this gift. The same apprehension might be experienced by the one who was prompted for the first time to speak the message in tongues.
Understand, however, that this is only one way that tongues are used in believers. Only certain people are given the “gift of tongues,” but every believer can and should use tongues for other purposes. It benefits every believer. We shall delve more into the subject of tongues after we complete the “Gifts of the Spirit” study. Then, you will understand why Paul wrote in I Corinthians 14:5 “I wish you all spoke with tongues,” (NKJV).
Tomorrow we will begin to look at the “power” gifts.

SCRIPTURE FOR THE DAY
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal: But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal: For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.
Matthew 6: 19-21 KJV

Prophetic Word
November 13, 2011
This word was given 9 years ago, but how relevant it is for today!
Woe unto them that call evil good and good evil. For you shall see a shaking of all that can be shaken. I will bring down those things of darkness that have tried to lift up their heads and proclaim truth that is not truth. Yes, I am the one that will expose the darkness. I shall surely expose it, and it shall come into light. I am light, and when my light shines on darkness, it is exposed. Like a thief caught in the act, it shall try to run, but I shall overtake it, and shall bring it to nothing. Hold fast to my truth, saith the Lord, for my truth is, was and shall ever be the only way to advance. Let yourself soak in my truth, in my word, in my presence, and you shall see those things of darkness be dispelled. Only my presence, only my truth shall be the source of doing this dispelling, and it shall happen. Do not try to do the work, for it shall not work. I am the only one that will remove the things that say they are good, and are evil. I alone will bring satisfaction to the claims of darkness, for I am the one that lifts up, and I am the one that tears down. Do not be hindered by evil, seek after good, and seek after the one that is good, for in me, shall you find peace. Let this be known, that I will surely do this, and you shall see it with your eyes. Many shall seek to find the evil, but it will be gone, and they shall not believe it has happened, but it will happen, for I the Lord have spoken it.
