If you have sincerely demonstrated to God that you are serious about following Him, then He will provide help for resisting temptations. Actually, we will find many helpful scriptures which the Lord has already spoken through His written word, the Bible. He has promised to help in our time of need.
1 Corinthians 10:13
No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; He will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, He will also provide a way out to that you can stand up under it.
Hebrews 2:18
Because He Himself suffered when He was tempted, He is able to help those who are being tempted.
The two verses above indicate that God wants to provide help for us when we are being tempted. If you are having trouble resisting temptation, ask God for help. He will provide help because of His love for us.
Because of what Jesus Christ did on the cross, we have an abundant provision of God's grace that will help us resist and overcome temptations. He was tempted in all areas as we are, but was able to remain without sin. Our saviour can teach us how to be strong when it comes to resisting temptations.
