Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. Matthew 4:1
Lord, this is an interesting verse. You were ‘led’ to do something that was not something anyone would have chosen to do. You were led by the ‘Spirit’ to be tempted.
No one likes to be tempted because we then have to resist something that we want or something we want to do. Not easy to do and not something that is fun to do.
And yet Lord, You the Son of God were tempted and we will see how You resisted that temptation as we read on.
Thank You Lord for being our example.
Thank You for giving us the strength and the power to resist with Your help just as You did.
Oh how fortunate we are to have You as our guide.
Thank You…. Thank You Lord.
