When Tempted (or tested)
See other pages for more beneficial Scriptures, including Jude 24-25 on the Not Mine page. Immersing ourselves in the Word is key. And singing it can release the joy, faith and strength we need and bring us into His manifest presence, where we will find victory, all for His glory!

[Psalm 23 NKJV. For Ps. 23:1-3 NIV go to the KidsTeam page.]
The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
2 He makes me to lie down in green pastures;
He leads me beside the still waters.
3 He restores my soul;
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name’s sake.
4 Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
For You are with me;
Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.
5 You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;
You anoint my head with oil;
My cup runs over.
6 Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life;
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord
Forever. Psalm 23
