18 The Lord will deliver me from every cruel attack and will keep me safe in preparation for His heavenly Kingdom. To Him be the glory until the Ages of the Ages! Amen.
3 But the Lord is faithful, and He will make you stedfast and will guard you from the Evil one.
33 »I have spoken all this to you in order that in me you may have peace. In the world you have affliction. But keep up your courage: I have won the victory over the world.«
33 »I have spoken all this to you in order that in me you may have peace. In the world you have affliction. But keep up your courage: I have won the victory over the world.«
21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome the evil with goodness.
11 But they have gained the victory over him because of the blood of the Lamb and of the testimony which they have borne, and because they held their lives cheap and did not shrink even from death.
46 »Why are you sleeping?« He said; »stand up; and pray that you may not come into temptation.«
5 Your lives should be untainted by love for money. Be content with what you have; for God Himself has said, »I will never, never let go your hand: I will never never forsake you.«
28 »Come to me, all you toiling and burdened ones, and I will give you rest.
57 but God be thanked who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ!
4 As for you, dear children, you are God's children, and have successfully resisted them; for greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.
8 He who is habitually guilty of sin is a child of the Devil, because the Devil has been a sinner from the very beginning. The Son of God appeared for the purpose of undoing the work of the Devil.
5 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overpowered it.
8 Curb every passion, and be on the alert. Your great accuser, the Devil, is going about like a roaring lion to see whom he can devour.
9 Withstand him, firm in your faith; knowing that your brethren in other parts of the world are passing through just the same experiences.
10 And God, the giver of all grace, who has called you to share His eternal glory, through Christ, after you have suffered for a short time, will Himself make you perfect, firm, and strong.
26 If angry, beware of sinning. Let not your irritation last until the sun goes down;
27 and do not leave room for the Devil.
37 Yet amid all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who has loved us.
21 »To him who overcomes I will give the privilege of sitting down with Me on My throne, as I also have overcome and have sat down with My Father on His throne.
37 For no promise from God will be impossible of fulfilment.«
3 Therefore, if you would escape becoming weary and faint-hearted, compare your own sufferings with those of Him who endured such hostility directed against Him by sinners.
10 When you forgive a man an offence I also forgive it; for in fact what I have forgiven, if I have forgiven anything, has always been for your sakes in the presence of Christ,
11 for fear Satan should gain an advantage over us. For we are not ignorant of his devices.
13 I have strength for anything through Him who gives me power.
4 As for you, dear children, you are God's children, and have successfully resisted them; for greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.
13 No temptation has you in its power but such as is common to human nature; and God is faithful and will not allow you to be tempted beyond your strength. But, when the temptation comes, He will also provide the way of escape; so that you may be able to bear it.
40 But when He arrived at the place, He said to them, »Pray that you may not come into temptation.«
22 to put away, in regard to your former mode of life, your original evil nature which is doomed to perish as befits its misleading impulses,
23 and to get yourselves renewed in the temper of your minds and clothe yourselves
24 with that new and better self which has been created to resemble God in the righteousness and holiness which come from the truth.
12 Exert all your strength in the honourable struggle for the faith; lay hold of the Life of the Ages, to which you were called, when you made your noble profession of faith before many witnesses.
1 Therefore, surrounded as we are by such a vast cloud of witnesses, let us fling aside every encumbrance and the sin that so readily entangles our feet. And let us run with patient endurance the race that lies before us,
18 For inasmuch as He has Himself felt the pain of temptation and trial, He is also able instantly to help those who are tempted and tried.
14 But to God be the thanks who in Christ ever heads our triumphal procession, and by our hands waves in every place that sweet incense, the knowledge of Him.
9 But people who are determined to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many unwise and pernicious ways which sink mankind in destruction and ruin.
19 »I have given you power to tread serpents and scorpions underfoot, and to trample on all the power of the Enemy; and in no case shall anything do you harm.
10 In conclusion, strengthen yourselves in the Lord and in the power which His supreme might imparts.
11 Put on the complete armour of God, so as to be able to stand firm against all the stratagems of the Devil.
12 For ours is not a conflict with mere flesh and blood, but with the despotisms, the empires, the forces that control and govern this dark world–the spiritual hosts of evil arrayed against us in the heavenly warfare.
13 Therefore put on the complete armour of God, so that you may be able to stand your ground on the day of battle, and, having fought to the end, to remain victors on the field.
14 Stand therefore, first fastening round you the girdle of truth and putting on the breastplate of uprightness
15 as well as the shoes of the Good News of peace– a firm foundation for your feet.
16 And besides all these take the great shield of faith, on which you will be able to quench all the flaming darts of the Wicked one;
17 and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit which is the word of God.
12 Blessed is he who patiently endures trials; for when he has stood the test, he will gain the victor's crown –even the crown of Life– which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.
13 Let no one say when passing through trial, »My temptation is from God;« for God is incapable of being tempted to do evil, and He Himself tempts no one.
14 But when a man is tempted, it is his own passions that carry him away and serve as a bait.
15 Then the passion conceives, and becomes the parent of sin; and sin, when fully matured, gives birth to death.
35 Who shall separate us from Christ's love? Shall affliction or distress, persecution or hunger, nakedness or danger or the sword?
28 Now we know that for those who love God all things are working together for good–for those, I mean, whom with deliberate purpose He has called.
21 Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome the evil with goodness.
4 For every child of God overcomes the world; and the victorious principle which has overcome the world is our faith.
3 Love for God means obedience to His commands; and His commands are not irksome.
4 For every child of God overcomes the world; and the victorious principle which has overcome the world is our faith.
5 Who but the man that believes that Jesus is the Son of God overcomes the world?
7 Submit therefore to God: resist the Devil, and he will flee from you.
8 Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and make your hearts pure, you who are half-hearted towards God.
5 »In this way he who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments; and I will certainly not blot out his name from the Book of Life, but will acknowledge him in the presence of My Father and His angels.«
38 Be wakeful, all of you, and keep on praying, that you may not come into temptation: the spirit is right willing, but the body is frail.«
8 Curb every passion, and be on the alert. Your great accuser, the Devil, is going about like a roaring lion to see whom he can devour.
10 Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.
57 but God be thanked who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ!
5 Who but the man that believes that Jesus is the Son of God overcomes the world?
12 I am writing to you, dear children, because for His sake your sins are forgiven you.
13 I am writing to you, fathers, because you know Him who has existed from the very beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the Evil one. I have written to you, children, because you know the Father.
14 I have written to you, fathers, because you know Him who has existed from the very beginning. I have written to you, young men, because you are strong and God's Message still has a place in your hearts, and you have overcome the Evil one.
15 Do not love the world, nor the things in the world. If any one loves the world, there is no love in his heart for the Father.
16 This then is what I mean. Let your lives be guided by the Spirit, and then you will certainly not indulge the cravings of your lower natures.
17 For the cravings of the lower nature are opposed to those of the Spirit, and the cravings of the Spirit are opposed to those of the lower nature; because these are antagonistic to each other, so that you cannot do everything to which you are inclined.
21 »To him who overcomes I will give the privilege of sitting down with Me on My throne, as I also have overcome and have sat down with My Father on His throne.
15 Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ? Shall I then take away the members of Christ and make them the members of a prostitute? No, indeed.
16 Or do you not know that a man who has to do with a prostitute is one with her in body? For God says, »The two shall become one.«
17 But he who is in union with the Master is one with Him in spirit.
18 Flee from fornication. Any other sin that a human being commits lies outside the body; but he who commits fornication sins against his own body.
19 Or do you not know that your bodies are a sanctuary of the Holy Spirit who is within you–the Spirit whom you have from God?
20 And you are not your own, for you have been redeemed at infinite cost. Therefore glorify God in your bodies.
