Packer on Temptation

I ran across this definition of "temptation" in J. I. Packer's A Passion for Holiness (Crossway, 1992):
"Temptations are places and times of decision in which Satan works to bring us down in an experience of defeat while God acts to build us up through an experience of overcoming" (p. 260).
