God has made available to us the power, his power, to say no to sin and yes to him.
Regardless of our temptation, God has made available the power to resist.
However, having the power of God available and using that power are two entirely different things.
Having the power of God at our disposal is not equivalent to overcoming temptation.
Power must be applied toward a specific goal before it serves any purpose.
Our Heavenly Father can help us over come temptation. His power is greater than that of satan, the flesh or sin.
God wants to help us if we will allow him to. We should put our trust in him for all things.
“Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” Ephesians 6:10-11
“For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.” Romans 6:14
“Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.” Romans 8:12
The power of God will help us overcome anything we face.
