Matthew 4:3-4 (NKJV) 3 Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.” 4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’ ”
Understand when Satan, the tempter, comes to tempt us, we have what we need to overcome the temptation.
What is it? The Word of God!
There is power to overcome any kind of temptation by God’s promises. By His truth. By His word!
Sometimes we may not remember the exact chapter and verse, but knowing what God says is what's most important.
The Holy Spirit will help us in this, but we must be willing to trust God and stand against temptation when it is staring us in the face.
Jesus didn’t try to overcome this on His own. He used the Word of God to rebuke the devil, and He was victorious!
God’s word is powerful. It is true, it’s alive, and it wins every battle the enemy throws at us.
Know the words of God. We must stand on them, and hold them dear to our hearts! Use them whenever the enemy tries to tempt us. And he will flee.
Matthew 4:11 (NKJV) 11 Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him.
Amen.
