Luke 4:1 (NKJV) 1 Then Jesus, being filled with the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness…<\/p>\n

Jesus was led into the wilderness. There He fasted for 40 days and 40 nights. In Luke 4:2, it says, afterwards He was hungry.<\/p>\n

The devil came to Him right after and said, “if You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread”.<\/p>\n

What a temptation! After not eating for 40 days, bread would taste mighty good, wouldn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n

But Jesus was onto him, through the help of the Holy Spirit. And His reply was that of the Son of God,\u00a0a Man filled with the Holy Spirit. Amen.<\/p>\n

Matthew 4:4 (NKJV) 4 But He answered and said, \u201cIt is written, \u2018Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God<\/span>.<\/p>\n

The devil came to Him two\u00a0other times and tempted Him while in the wilderness. And each time Jesus rebuked his offer, and replying with the Word of God.<\/p>\n

Praise You, Lord, for Your focus and strength to stay on track.<\/p>\n

If Jesus, the Son of the Mighty God, needed the Holy Spirit to fill Him and work through Him, we most definitely need Him moving and helping us daily.<\/p>\n

We all need to stop trying to be the hero on\u00a0this journey of life as a believer. We don\u2019t help God. He helps us.<\/p>\n

We aren\u2019t doing anything for Him in and of ourselves. His word says that without His help, we can do nothing.<\/p>\n

John 15:5 (NKJV) 5 \u201cI am the vine; you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing<\/span>.<\/p>\n

This may be a hard thing for some people to swallow. But so many have it backwards; we need God in order to win battles, to move mountains and to lead people to Christ. He sent us a Helper because He knew we would need Him.<\/p>\n

The devil will tempt us daily, hourly, minute by minute. We must be strong enough to\u00a0resist Him and do just that.<\/p>\n

James 4:7 (NKJV) 7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.<\/p>\n

Be filled with our Helper, the Holy Spirit, just as Jesus was filled.<\/p>\n
