In the account of His wilderness temptation, our Lord provided us the key to defeating Satan.
Each time Satan tempted Jesus or misapplied a statement of the Word, our Lord replied, “It is written,”and then correctly quoted and applied the truth of God (see Matthew 4:1–11).
How important it is to see that Satan backs off from nothing but the absolute truth and fact of God’s Word!
Heavenly Father, help me to claim Your promises when Satan spews lies in my direction. When the enemy tries to tempt and discourage me, help me to cling victoriously to Your great truths. In Jesus’ Name. Amen.
