Vent Space

Well you are doing good. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Best when dealing with temptation is to flee from it. How do we flee from our thoughts? Find the triggers and try to prevent the triggers. Then try and redirect your thoughts possibly on the image of Jesus. When I need help, I imagine Jesus standing in front of me and offering His hand to help me.

Jesus was tempted three times in the wilderness. He was alone and fasting at the time
satan offered him glory, immortality, and food.

well Jesus already had Gods glory, He was already knew that God would give him eternal life so he didnt need to prove it, and while he was hungry physically he had spiritual food.

The thing with temptation is that, the temptations are actually shabby imitations of the real thing. Why would you want the fake thing so bad when youve already got the real thing? Satan tried to tell Jesus to eat STONES as if they were bread lol

So you can tell Satan to get lost cos you belong to God!

Yeah, you're all right, the temptation weirdly enough has kind of gone away and I kind of want to get back to Jesus, so that's a plus, guess you can say I'm getting better.

One thing that Christians over look is complete satisfaction in Christ and not fully understanding what it means to be holy. Venting done.
