Pray This Before Temptation Hits

How do you stop falling into the same sin? In this Daily Hope devotional, Pastor John S. Dickerson continues walking through the Lord’s Prayer and shows how “Lead us not into temptation” can become a daily prayer for freedom. Temptation often wins when we wait until the moment of weakness to decide what we want. But Jesus teaches us to pray before temptation hits — to come to the Father, name the sins we are prone to, and ask Him to lead us away from what would pull our hearts from Him. This prayer is not about beating sin in your own strength. It is about humble dependence on God. When you pre-decide with Him that you want to worship Him above every temptation, He can reduce your appetite for sin, break strongholds, and lead you into greater freedom. If you feel trapped by a repeated sin struggle, let this line from the Lord’s Prayer become daily armor for your heart.
