1 Corinthians 10:13
But remember that the temptations that come into your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will keep the temptation from becoming so strong that you can't stand up against it. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you will not give in to it.Here’s a silly anecdote for you: The head of a dormitory was giving instructions to the dorm residents informing them that the, “Male students are not allowed into female dorms, and female students are not allowed into male dorm rooms. Anybody caught breaking this rule will be fined $20 the first time. The second time you will be fined $60. A third time will cost you a fine of $180. Any questions?" A male student quipped, "How much for a season pass?" It's certainly a comedic statement, but in all seriousness, rules are meant to be obeyed not to be violated. God's rules even have the sovereignty of His throne. That said, in times of fleshly temptation, you need to remember that God is faithful to show you a way of resistance. If you are faithful and obedient when following Him, the way out that He provides will be obvious and easy to see.
