| “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation…” |
| —Matthew 26:41a |
Some days it seems like temptation comes in such waves that we almost get knocked over. When that happens, prayer can serve as our flotation device and enable us to ride out the surf.
How do I know this? Because Jesus gave this instruction to His disciples in Matthew 26:41:
Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.
Sounds to me like this is good advice to follow.
