"No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it" 1 Corinthians 10:30 NIV.
When temptation comes, there are three ways man generally deals with it; it's either by simply giving into it, or spend all the time fighting with their own strength, or overcome temptation through the power of Our Lord Jesus Christ. I encourage you to follow the third way, turn temptation into triumph. To some it may seem impossible but the truth is, it's not.
All of us can learn the spiritual process of conquering temptation. It is possible to experience victory in this life everyday. However, there are several things you must know if you want to experience it. Firstly, the verse above says, God is Faithful who will not let you to be tempted beyond what you can bear. This means that you have the ability to overcome any temptation that comes your way. There are different levels of temptation, you will always be at the level of your temptation and no temptation above your level is permitted to come near you. Any temptation that comes to you only means you have the ability to win over it.
Whenever you overcome any temptation, you are promoted to your next level of success and also your next level of temptation. Secondly, When the temptation comes, He will always provide a way of escape for you. As long as you understand that He is always with you and will always make a way where there seem to be no way, that confidence in you will give you the victory over any temptation.

Declare This: Dear Lord, I know that You always make a way for me to escape any temptation. I refuse to negotiate with any, rather I stand in faith of Your Word and ensure I win always in Jesus name Amen.
