Temptation and Truth in the Wilderness

The devil knew exactly when to strike. Jesus hadn't eaten in forty days. Starving,

exhausted, completely drained. Satan offered bread, power, protection.

Three temptations designed to break him at his weakest point. But Jesus didn't

fight back with miracles or arguments. He used scripture. Every single time. Man shall not live

by bread alone. You shall not tempt the Lord. Worship God only. Three verses.

Three victories. Here's what most people miss. The wilderness wasn't punishment.

It was preparation. God led Jesus there on purpose. Because before the ministry,

before the miracles, before changing the world, Jesus had to prove something.
