Luk 11:4 KJV
(4) ... And lead us not into temptation; ...
God does not want to lead us into temptation. There are times when he must though. The prayer here is not for God necessarily but for man.
Man if he is going to prove that he is not going to sin needs to be tempted once in a while. God will allow for the temptation to take place. If we sin and fall is He mad with us. No. If it happens it shows us where we need to be stronger.
When temptations come, look on them as times to succeed, not fail.
