You often pray that I deliver you from temptation. However, Satan constantly tempts you, and you may give in to that temptation. When you confess that sin, I not only forgive you, but I also cleanse you.
I told Peter that Satan wanted to sift him as wheat. I did not tell Peter that he would not be tempted nor did I deliver him from the temptation. I told Peter that I would pray that his faith would not fail.
I delivered Peter out of temptation, not from temptation. Whenever you give in to Satan's temptations, I want you to know that I am praying for you that your faith will not fail you. I want you to always have faith in Me to help you overcome whenever you give in to temptation again.
2 PETER 2:9; LUKE 22:31-32
