There are these three cycles
that synergize temptation. If you could break one of these cycles, you would have taken some of the energy out of this monster.
If you eliminate two or all three, you then have dominion over this garden leviathan.
AMBITION, CURIOSITY, DESIRE
tends to be almost like the three witches that got Macbeth into this snare, which lead to his demise. Ambition: Cause is Col.3:1-5;John
18:37;Luke 10:17-19:Effect-Phil.3:12-14;Phil. 3:20,21;Luke 10:20-21. Curiosity: Cause is Col. 2:21;Acts 19:19:Effect is Rom.
6:1-6;1 John 2:15,16. Desire: Cause is James 1:15;1 Cor. 11:30;11 Cor. 10:4,5; Effect is Psa. 27:5;John 10:10;Phil. 1:21-23.
Ambition has to do with the
Flesh{five senses}(Heb. 5:14). Curiosity has to do with one's Emotions(Gal. 5:18-22). Desire has to do with the mind and the
heart(Dan.2:29-31;Jer. 17:9).
Samson was Ambition--Judg.14:14-16;
Curiosity-Judg.13:1-3;Judg. 16:1; Desires(Judg.16:15-20,24). Samson serves as our example; if you want power over the devil,
you cannot play and sleep with the devil(Judg.14:14;Judg.16:19)
PART TWO: FEAR |

Texts: 1 Samuel 17:11, 40 ;Proverbs 29:18;11 Timothy 1:7
Introduction: This subject is an example of what Jesus
Christ was talking about in John 3:12, if you don't understand natural(earthly) things, how can I tell you about spiritual
things. If you have natural phobias(fears), how can I tell you about spiritual phobias(fears).
David
saw through Goliath(Soothsayer, Braggart).Yes he was a giant, inwardly he was just a moron who had a demonic testimony to
his pagan god Dagon and himself. The key to overcoming fear starts with faith(Heb. 11:,6). Faith is five letters, just as
devil is five letters and Jesus is five letters.
David learned through Secret Closet Praise and Worship
how to overcome fear.(Psa. 34:1-4; Matt. 6:6).

FIVE SMOOTH STONES OF FAITH:

15;22;Heb.3:17-19
c. Holiness----------Superstition--Gal.3:1;
Dan. 1:8;John 18:37
d. Truth---------------Tradition---Mark
7:13;Heb. 4:2

Sam. 17:35-37;Luke 10:40-42; 1 Sam. 13:14

CONCLUSION:
First and rules of
a natural and spiritual battle are as follows; never let a person or group that they hurt you, and never show fear. When you
let the enemy know you are afraid of them and that you are hurt, you lost. That's what happen to Saul and Israel when they
faced Goliath(1 Sam. 17:11) Yes, Goliath's name means Braggart and soothsayer(Psychic). This word on Faith is five letters
lets us know faith has five levels that also can go into five dimensions, if we would put our trust in the Lord(Psa. 20:7
;Psa. 37:1-3; Zech.4:6;Ezra 4:5)

PART THREE
: ANGER

Texts Gal. 5:1,16,18-23; Prov. 24:17,18;Rom. 12:18-22;Eph.
4:26; Prov. 14:29; James 1:19
Something is wrong in our society, when unsaved
people must teach saved people how to control their tempers, managed stress and deal with grief. This is due to spiritual
immaturity and not having God in our life in totality. God said he would make us the head, and not the tail(Deut.28:13)
David picked out five smooth stones from
the brook(1 Sam. 17:40). Anger is just one emotion. There are other emotions such as hatred, undisciplined, contentious,
rash, grumpy, frustrated, pride, etc.
We must understand that Emotions whether
it be anger or one of the above has a trigger(Cause) and a connection(effect). That takes patience to deal with
your triggers, and wisdom to deal with the effects.
There are five things the devil cannot do.
This is where the believers strength lies: the devil cannot live holy, the devil cannot be humble, the devil cannot be obedient,
the devil cannot tell the truth, the devil cannot love. These are the Five Smooth Stones of Emotional Management(Anger Management):
CONDITION :
EFFECTS
CAUSE
(Connection) (Trigger)
1. Holiness :
Unforgiveness----Jonah 4:1-8--Rudeness
2. Humility
: Disappointment--Phil 4:11,12--Stubborn
3. Disobedience: Jealousy------------Gen.
4:4-8--Undisciplined
4. Truth
: Confusion--------- 1 Cor. 14:28--Denial
5. Love
: Impatience---------1 Cor. 13:4-7--Selfish
