Matthew 4:1-11
Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil........
Life on earth is a wilderness. It’s a wasteland. It's a place that will never satisfy. Land mines abound. Temptations are abundant. So, beware, my beloveds. They are all strategically designed to defeat you.
Like Jesus, learn to recognize them for what they are......schemes of the devil to destroy your devotion to Christ. Satan will lie to you. He will lay juicy temptations in your path.
However, don’t fear. The righteous are bold as a lion. Jesus conquered the enemy. The enemy is defeated. Your job is to focus on the Word. Emerse yourself in it. Learn it, meditate on it, memorize it. Pant for it as the deer pants for the water. Stand firm in the Lord, He will give you victory over your temptations.
I pray your faith will not fail. I pray that you will be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might! In Christ, you are overcomers. You will have have victory in the wilderness.
