Podcasts about overcoming temptation

We were blessed by a powerful sermon from one of our young and energetic members, Modest Barack, on “

In this week's preach, Dion van Breda teaches that if we rely on the guidance of the Holy Spirit and dwell on God's Word, we will be able to resist temptation and live victoriously.1 Corinthians 10: 13 (NIV)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.

Today’s Topics: 1, 2, 3, 4) Gospel –John 20:24-29 – Thomas, called Didymus, one of the Twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. So the other disciples said to him, “We have seen the Lord.” But Thomas said to them, “Unless I see the mark of the nails in His Hands and put my finger into the nailmarks and put my hand into His Side, I will not believe.” Now a week later his disciples were again inside and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, although the doors were locked, and stood in their midst and said, “Peace be with you.” Then He said to Thomas, “Put your finger here and see My Hands, and bring your hand and put it into My Side, and do not be unbelieving, but believe.” Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!” Jesus said to him, “Have you come to believe because you have seen Me? Blessed are those who have not seen and have believed.” Memorial of Saint Thomas Saint Thomas, pray for us! Bishop Sheen quote of the day

Living Truth Christian Fellowship Podcast

Today, on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme, "Temptation," by discussing various temptations with experts in their respective fields and how they overcome them. Our first guest, Kathi Lipp, joined us to talk about the temptation to hold on to clutter “just in case,” explaining how fear, anxiety, and constant pressure to upgrade can keep us from trusting God’s provision and living with freedom. Kathi is an author, speaker, blogger, and podcast host. We welcomed Dr. Ronnie Floyd to talk about overcoming temptation and spiritual strongholds, explaining why believers must stand on God’s Word, walk in the power of the Holy Spirit, and speak truth against the enemy’s lies. Dr. Floyd is a speaker, author, pastor, and host of the weekly podcast called “For Leaders Podcast with Ronnie Floyd.” We then opened up the phone lines to hear from our listeners. We posed the question, “Why did you keep going back to the temptation that hurt you most?

In this message Pastor Vern Frank teaches on how to overcome temptation. https://www.pacbible.org/

Rather than being wrapped up in one single event, the Christian life is a work in progress that involves struggling through sin and temptation. If we are not struggling, we are not moving. We will never arrive at completion until we see Jesus, and until then we need to continue to grow and mature.

Genesis by Pastor Jason Duff The post Overcoming Temptation – Genesis 39:1-12 appeared first on Calvary Vista.

The purpose of lust and porn is to take mature adults and turn them into impulsive, demanding, and rebellious children. Thankfully, Jesus stands by in time of need. Coach Jonathan Haverdink shares what it means to reclaim your sexual integrity through Christ. When faith feels distant, people don't need more noise. They need something they can return to each day.  Something that brings them back to God's Word.

PREPARE FOR TOMORROW 2 of 7 Keys to Overcoming Temptation

If you feel weary, discouraged, or defeated by sin, Scripture doesn't offer a shortcut—it offers a doorway: prayer. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef reminds us that there is no lasting power over temptation and no consistent victory over sin without spending time with God in prayer. Dr. Youssef challenges the common habit of treating prayer like a last-ditch effort. Instead, prayer should be your first option—in trouble, in joy, and in every in-between moment. He points to the testimonies of Scripture where God moved mightily as His people prayed: Moses, Joshua, Hannah, David, Elijah, Daniel—and most powerfully, Jesus Himself. When Christ prayed in Gethsemane, the forces of darkness trembled, revealing that heaven's strength is unleashed when we align our will with God's perfect plan. Whether your relationships feel strained, your heart feels heavy, or your soul feels dry, this devotional calls you back to the simplest, strongest step of faith: pray—trusting God is not intimidated by your circumstances, and believing His promise that when you draw near to Him, He will draw near to you. Prayer: Lord, in Your mercy, restore my soul and prepare me for the life You have planned for me. I want to live for You and trust You to finish Your work in me. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen. “Come near to God and he will come near to you. . . . Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up” (James 4:8, 10). Learn more in Dr. Michael A. Youssef's sermon Pray or Faint: LISTEN NOW The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission. If today's devotional stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don't have to walk through it alone.

This Palm Sunday, we explored Hebrews 4:14-16 and the reality that Jesus also experienced temptation in every way we do. Instead of taking the easy way out, He rejected the shortcuts offered by the devil and chose a different path. Rather than grasping for power, Jesus responded with patience and obedience. He embraced the cross and invites us to do the same. In God's kingdom, we don't win by winning-we win by losing.

Be challenged to live beyond yourself and discover how embracing a living sacrifice mindset can lead to clarity, purpose, and fulfillment in your Christian walk.

Slaying the Giants - Overcoming Temptation and Anger - Pastor Lydia Sigman - March 15 by Pastor Larry Huch

Genesis 3:1-7 // The heart of temptation is found in the enticement of a desire for freedom, a desire for power, and a desire for pleasure. Christ shows us the way out of temptation, and breaks bread with us so that we may not be led into it.

Why do human philosophies keep promising freedom—yet leave people more anxious, confused, and broken? In today's MY Devotional, Dr. Michael Youssef traces the root of our modern spiritual crisis back to the first temptation in the garden: Adam and Eve believed Satan's lie and chose rebellion over God's perfect wisdom. That same pattern still drives every ideology that elevates human desire above God—and it's why man-made “solutions” always fail. But there is real hope: only God's wisdom can repair what sin has destroyed. And God hasn't left us guessing. Through the Holy Spirit, believers have access to the mind of God—yet Dr. Youssef reminds us that the Spirit's guidance isn't experienced through information alone, but through surrender. You'll hear why: daily yielding to the Holy Spirit is essential for clarity and spiritual strength, ignoring the Spirit grieves Him—and persistent disobedience can quench His voice, many can read the Bible and still miss its meaning without the Spirit's illumination, and it's never too late to invite the Spirit back into the “driver's seat” of your life. Today's MY Devotional has been provided by Leading The Way. The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission. If today's devotional stirred a question, burden, or need for prayer, you don't have to walk through it alone.

Why is it so hard to live faithfully in a fallen world—even when you want to obey God? In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef exposes a sobering reality: every believer has an enemy on the inside—the flesh—that instinctively leans toward rebellion. When temptation knocks, it's the flesh that wants to open the door. But you are not helpless. Dr. Youssef explains that God has equipped every Christian with three weapons for victory—tools strong enough to overcome the world's pressure, the devil's lies, and the flesh's cravings: A renewed nature to battle the old sinful nature The living, active Word of God—sharper than a double-edged sword (Hebrews 4:12) The Holy Spirit—God's presence within you to convict, remind, strengthen, and empower obedience Using the Corinthian church as a warning, Dr. Youssef shows how many struggles trace back to one root issue: letting the flesh run wild. This devotional will help you recognize the real battlefield and reclaim the victory Christ has already secured—by learning to hold fast to God's Word, walk in step with the Spirit, and fight with the tools heaven has provided.

Sometimes it feels like we're assaulted with temptations to detour away from God's will and way. Jesus knows what that feels like. His 40 days in the wilderness encourages us: it reminds us that we're not alone in the struggle and equips us to overcome.(Matthew 4:1-11) Our message notes can be found here http://www.gatheringcafe.com/thewestsidegathering/podcasts/WSGmsg20260308_DavidM.pdf

What are you drawing on for strength—your circumstances, your abilities, or the power of Christ?In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef reminds us that only Christ's resurrection power can truly satisfy the empty heart, defeat temptation, and exchange our weakness for His strength. Earthly assets and “wins” may look impressive, but they're nothing compared to the transforming power of Jesus.This devotional also sounds a loving warning: when life is going well, it's easy to drift back into independence and forget the Source of real joy. That's why we must stay alert to spiritual stagnation and choose growth—even when growth stretches us.You'll be encouraged by Scripture's call to keep pressing forward:Run with perseverance, throwing off sin and fixing your eyes on Jesus (Hebrews 12:1–2).Press on toward the goal, forgetting what's behind and straining toward what's ahead (Philippians 3:13–14).If you've been tempted to coast, quit, or rely on comfort instead of Christ, this episode will re-center your heart on the One whose power never runs out—and whose grace meets you in the struggle.Scripture Focus: Psalm 147:5 The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission.

In our Gospel passage, Jesus gives us different tips and strategies by his example on how to overcome temptation. Listen to my homily to learn more!

If you're trying to grow closer to Jesus and keep hitting resistance, you're not alone—and you're not failing. In today's MY Devotional, Dr. Michael Youssef shows why obstacles are part of the journey of faith and how your response to them can either stifle spiritual growth or strengthen it.You'll learn the three common blockers that quietly weaken intimacy with Christ:An inability to accept correction — A teachable heart is a clear sign of maturity. How you respond when a godly believer points out blind spots reveals a lot about your love for Jesus.An unwillingness to change — Sanctification means continual growth. The moment we stop changing, we step into spiritual danger.Confusing the journey for the destination — Are you living as a citizen of this world with a passing interest in heaven, or as a citizen of heaven passing through this world? (Philippians 3:20–21)This episode will help you reframe spiritual resistance, recognize what's holding you back, and pursue Jesus with renewed focus—right where you are.Scripture Focus: Colossians 1:9–10 The voice you hear on the MY Devotional podcast is digitally generated with Dr. Youssef's permission.

Jesus was led into the wilderness to be tempted by the Devil himself. The jaws of hell opened, and Jesus overcame every temptation. He gives us a road map and the power to overcome the temptations we face. thebridgebluffton.com

Struggling with temptation again? You're not alone—and you're not broken. We've been taught to fight it with willpower, but what if that's why we keep falling There's a better way. If you're tired of feeling stuck, ashamed, or alone in the fight—this is for you.

Jesus has just been baptized, His identity was declared by God the Father, and he saw the Holy Spirit descends like a dove. Wow! What a spiritual experience! He is riding high and life is going to feel like a cakewalk from here on out, right? I think oftentimes we have a Disney-worldly view of Christianity that doesn’t align with God’s word. A cakewalk is not the reality of what happens next for Jesus. This weekend, we will see that Jesus sets an example for us in how we can respond to temptation. He shows that our greatest, basic need is not physical: not food, not affirmation or position. Our primary need is spiritual in nature: it is relationship with God. It is through this relationally grounded mindset that Jesus overcomes temptation. As believers, our faith will be tested, and we will all be tempted in various ways. Will we choose to look to God and His word for wisdom to proceed His way, or are we going to take the easy out? Thankfully for us, Jesus did not take the short cuts offered to him, but he endured the cross and the Father’s wrath for our sin. His victory over temptation shows us why He is the worthy Lamb of sacrifice for the sins of the world and the High Priest who can sympathize with our weaknesses. - Pastor Ken Key Verse - Hebrews 4:15 - “For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin.” For this week's Scripture and notes: http://bible.com/events/49543683

And seeing people in their hard situations and now understanding that everybody's situation's hard. We don't see it 'cause they all hide it. Right? And we just need to let God in. We need to let Him approach us. And we all need to be that for somebody else.
