Christians are often concerned that despite faith, when temptation comes they fail. But we forget that we have an unbeatable weapon against temptation: prayer. Jesus said "Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation." (Mark 14:38, Matt. 26:41, Luke 22:46)
Perhaps this can also be understood in a different way, that if we constantly pray we will not fall into temptation, because "His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life." (2 Peter 1:3) Christian friends, it is possible to live a godly life on this earth if we constantly pray and watch ourselves. It doesn't happen instantly, but grows like a tree and starts giving fruits when time comes.
