Devotional by Dr. Dora J. Washington
“When the devil had finished tempting Jesus, he left him until the next opportunity came.” Luke 4:13 NLT
Sometimes I think, what if we had the same perseverance our enemy has? Satan tempted Jesus three times before leaving Him. Even after Satan left Him, the scripture said, “he departed until the next opportunity came.” If he looked and waited for the next opportunity to tempt Jesus, how much more is he looking for one to tempt us?
Prayer: Lord, give me the strength to persevere when I want to give up and courage to speak Your Word when the flesh is tired, hungry and weak. Open my eyes to his strategies to deceive me and help me to overcome them. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
