JESUS was tempted, not only in one area, but in all areas and it was one after the other. But Jesus had ready answers to give…..
The next person that comes to my mind is JOB, whom the devil tempted…..everything was taken away from him. Again this was a series…A messenger reported to Job that his servants were killed by the Sabeans. "While he was still speaking," the second messenger came with the news of his sheep burned up by a fire from God. "While he was still speaking," another came with the news of the carrying away of the camels by the Chaldeans. "While he was still speaking," another brought the news of the death of his children due to the collapse of the house. "In all this Job did not sin!"
Oh my GOD!!!!...
I was just thinking for myself and people around….. Today the devil has new techniques!!! To mention, we have answers to all are probz…..if not today, we know we have an answer tomorrow. Today we are blessed with everything possible…which are parents or our forefathers could not even dream about. Earlier our shortcomings led us to SIN, now what…..
Parents are ready to do everything for us…but we are not even bothered about their feelings. Blessed with a good job/salary/talent after much of suffering…but not able to use it properly or wanting more of it. And everything in life is OK.
Are we aware of whtz happening with us or around us?? But I feel sometime this is where the devil (temptation) is at work…….with all the blessings that we have, how do we use it? A big question. See how, is he stealing the Grace that is with us.
I believe that these temptations are GOD’s plan in our life….very true. But have to be sure that we are not surrendering ourselves to these temptations. In other words to say “NO” when required.
No degree of temptation justifies any degree of sin! Whatever may be the type of place/circumstance, if it is God who put you there, you have no excuse for your failure.
Heb 10:26 "If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of truth. No sacrifice for sins is left".
