Evening — October 16 — Matthew 6:13

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’ — Matthew 6:13Jesus teaches us to pray for protection before the battle starts: "lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one". This is a prayer of holy fear that knows our own weakness. We're not stronger than temptation; we're only safe when we're kept by him. And he's faithful—he won't let you be tempted beyond what you can bear.
