James 4:7
How do you respond when temptation knocks? Joseph’s experience in Potiphar’s house shows us that integrity is a choice. When faced with relentless temptation, he declared, “How then can I do this great wickedness and sin against God?” (Genesis 39:9). Joseph chose God’s way over fleeting desires, and though it cost him, God’s favor remained with him. James 4:7 reminds us, “Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” Standing firm in faith doesn’t mean trials disappear immediately, but God’s presence sustains us. Each time we choose integrity, we align ourselves with His divine purpose. What temptations are you facing? Trust God, resist, and His strength will carry you through.
