Immediately after Jesus as baptized by John the Baptist, he was led away by the Spirit into the desert where he was tested for forty days and forty nights. While he was there, he was hungry, lonely, and away from his normal spiritual rhythms of worship. This time created perfect ground for the devil to tempt him in many ways. But with the help of the Holy Spirit and God’s Word hidden in his heart, he was able to avoid falling into sin. The Good News is that if we just follow Jesus’ lead, we too can resist the devil in temptation and he will flee from us.
