“Temptation”- pĕirasmŏs:  a putting to proof (by experiment [of good], experience [of evil], solicitation, discipline or provocation); by impl. adversity:— temptation, × try.

James Strong, The New Strong’s Dictionary of Hebrew and Greek Words (Nashville: Thomas Nelson, 1996).

A – Jesus wasn’t just tempted with the three questions.  He was tempted in every way the devil could put before him. Where the enemy meant to circumvent God’s plan of the cross by tempting Jesus to “accomplish” his purpose by “making a deal,” Jesus didn’t give into the temptation.  Nothing the enemy could offer would accomplish God’s plan.

R – Heavenly Father, you are Lord of all.  Give us the strength and courage to face temptation like Jesus did.  Give us a depth in your word to use it to thwart temptation.  Help us to keep our eyes on the purposes and plans you have for us that honor you.
