No temptation[a] has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted[b] beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted,[c] he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.
Therefore, my dear friends, flee from idolatry. I Corinthians 10:13-14
Idolatry is putting anything or anyone before the Lord. It is a subtle form of insecurity. It is easy to try and please others, especially as Christians. We will tell subtle lies in order not to hurt someone’s feelings, and we may read other’s actions as contrary to our own welfare, and make assumptions.
Both are traps….from the enemy. The Corinthian church had these same issues. The enemy will tempt us…. but God, said He has already taken care of this for us in advance!
Whenever we feel these things try to tempt us…. Run! Insecurity will incinerarte you and God’s plans for you! Run from insecurity…. Run into the security of Jesus!
