Lead Us Not Into Temptation

When Jesus gave us instruction on how to pray, he was teaching us a way to approach God that has us realize we are not alone, and we can enjoy his presence daily. The phrase, 'lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil,’ is talking about the times in our lives when we feel like life is a struggle. Temptation brings out something in us that brings out our flaws. We at times feel parts of our life aren’t inspiring or good, so we get tempted, 'lead us not into temptation,' means help me with those thoughts and desires inside me that are waging war on my soul.
