Understanding Jesus’ Victory Over Temptation

Tempted in Every Way

Scripture: Matthew 4:1–11; Hebrews 2:18

Reading (200–300 words):
We can see in the bible that Jesus was “tempted in every way, just as we are.” The wilderness temptation in Matthew 4 shows that Jesus was tested in body (bread for hunger), spirit (trusting God), and purpose (worshiping Satan for power). Yet He stood firm.

Understanding that Temptation is not sin; the sin comes when we give into the temptation. When we look at Jesus’ example we can be assured that He knows the weight of temptation. When you feel the pull of sin, know that He has walked the same road, and He provides strength to help you endure.

Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, when temptation feels too overwhelming, remind me of Jesus’ victory. Help me lean on Your Word, just like He did. In Jesus Name Amen.

Question:
How can Jesus’ example in the wilderness help you resist temptation today?

Key Takeaway:
Always remember Jesus knows the weight of temptation and gives us strength to walk through it.
