TROUBLES COME
Matthew 4:1-4 (ESV)
Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. [2] And after fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. [3] And the tempter came and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become loaves of bread." [4] But he answered, "It is written,
" 'Man shall not live by bread alone,
but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.' "
YES, EVEN JESUS HAD TROUBLES.
HE HAD TEMPTATIONS.
HOW DID HE DEAL WITH THEM?
HE KNEW WHERE THEY COME FROM-SATAN.
HE EXPECTED THEM.
HE USED THE BIBLE TO CAST OFF SATAN.
I BET THE BIBLE WOULD HELP US IF WE USED IT MORE.
