BIBLE MEDITATION: ?And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For Thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.? Matthew 6:13

DEVOTIONAL THOUGHT: Mike Kolen, who played linebacker for the Miami Dolphins, told me this story once. ?When I graduated from Auburn University, Coach Shug Jordan asked me to do some scouting for him. I said, ?Sure coach, what kind of man do you need?? Coach said, ?You know the guy you can knock down and he stays there?? I said, ?Sure!? Coach said, ?We don?t need him. You know the guy you can knock down, he gets up, you knock him down again, and he gets up?? I said, ?Yes! You want him?? ?No,? said Coach, ?I want the guy that?s knocking everybody down. That?s the guy I want.? ? I am grateful that Jesus picks us up when we are knocked down. But, wouldn?t you like to do a little knocking down of the devil for a change? You can if you will learn to pray, ¿rd, lead me not into temptation, but keep me from evil.?

ACTION POINT: What is your greatest temptation? Gossip? Alcohol? Drugsí Lust? Power? Friend, whatever your struggle, don?t go out into the world today without first praying Matthew 6:9-13.
