2 Peter 2:9
2 Peter 2:9
The LORD knoweth how to deliver the godly out of temptations.
God is faithful, and He knows how to deliver the godly from temptation. This verse is a reassurance that God is not only aware of our struggles but also actively works to deliver us from the trials we face. When we are tempted, it can feel like we are fighting alone, but this verse reminds us that God is with us, providing protection and deliverance. His righteousness is our shield, and He will make a way for us to escape when we are tempted. The key is to trust in God’s provision and seek His help in times of temptation. He knows our weaknesses, and He is faithful to help us when we call on Him. We can rest in His promise that He will provide a way of escape.
James 1:14
But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust and enticed.

And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil.
Philippians 2:15
That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation.
