Jesus is Tempted - Sharon Dow
Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the devil. After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. Matthew 4: 1-2 NIV
Jesus fasted forty days and forty nights. We're not told if Jesus drank water during that time, but although a person can go without water for seven days, in extreme heat the time is drastically reduced. Jesus was in the desert, a place known for heat. Because he was housed within a human body, subject to all the assaults common to man, we can make an educated guess that Jesus had a water source. Now place yourself in this position; you've had a limited supply of water but absolutely no food for forty days. What would be the condition of your body at this point? And what about the condition of your mind? It is no surprise to find that Jesus is hungry. He must have been hungry long before the forty days were up.
It is now that Satan decides to strike. Isn't that always the way? When you're down, at your lowest, Satan loves to find you. Satan knew all along that Jesus was there in the desert. He had been following him since his birth and had made more than one attempt to eliminate him. So why did he wait forty days before approaching Jesus? I believe God restrained him until God's timing was fulfilled.
Jesus KNEW that he was going into the desert to be tempted by Satan! He knew the purpose, yet went willingly. Would we willingly go where we knew that Satan would tempt us? Jesus faced evil head-on and was not swayed by the allure of Satan. Oh to be like Jesus.

| FaithWriters are Fulfilling The Great Commission Together!
As we help you become the writer God has called you to be, you help us spread the gospel in over 230 countries online. Here is a quote from a reader who accepted Jesus on FaithWriters. His life will never be the same because one writer “put pen to paper” and shared it.
‘I literally was transformed and totally healed in an instant upon trusting in Jesus as my lord and savior. The love, joy, light, and peace I feel is way more than words or thoughts can express. This new life of being a true Christian, who is saved, Spirit-filled, born-again, fully and truly converted by the living holy gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, is going to carry my being further than anyone could ever imagine. It will be the most blessed, rewarding, and holy life in the Lord, which I have embarked upon now.’” Roger P. |
