13And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.’
Shut the door to temptations when you are secure in who you are in Christ, which was settled 2000 years ago. You are as fully accepted as Christ is. Your failures do not change who you are. You need God and His Word to overcome and not give a foothold to the evil one.
