The document describes Jesus being led by the Holy Spirit into the wilderness where he fasted for 40 days and was tempted by the devil. The devil tempted Jesus to turn stones into bread when he was hungry, bow down and worship the devil in exchange for authority over the world's kingdoms, and test God by throwing himself from the temple. Each time, Jesus responded by quoting scripture. After enduring every temptation, the devil left Jesus until a more opportune time. The document then states that Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit and his fame spread throughout the surrounding region as he taught in the synagogues.

3. Luke 4:1-15
• The Temptation of Jesus
• 4 sAnd Jesus, tfull of the Holy Spirit, ureturned from the Jordan and was led vby the
Spirit in the wilderness 2 for wforty days, xbeing tempted by the devil. wAnd he ate
nothing during those days. And when they were ended, yhe was hungry. 3 The devil
said to him, “If you are zthe Son of God, command athis stone to become
bread.” 4 And Jesus answered him, b“It is written, c‘Man shall not live by bread
alone.’ ” 5 dAnd the devil took him up and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in
a moment of time, 6 and said to him, “To you eI will give all this authority and their
glory, efor it has been delivered to me, and I give it to whom I will. 7 If you, then, will
worship me, it will all be yours.” 8 And Jesus answered him, f“It is written,
• g“ ‘You shall worship the Lord your God,and hhim only shall you serve.’ ”
• 9 iAnd he took him to Jerusalem and set him on the pinnacle of the temple and said to
him, “If you are jthe Son of God, throw yourself down from here, 10 for it is written,
• k“ ‘He will command his angels concerning you,to guard you,11 and
• k“ ‘On their hands they will bear you up,lest you strike your foot against a stone.’ ”
• 12 And Jesus answered him, “It is said, l‘You shall not mput the Lord your God to the
test.’ ” 13 And when the devil had ended every temptation, he departed from him nuntil
an opportune time.

6. AGE OLD TACTICS OF SATAN’S
ATTACK ON OUR HEARTS…
• Let’s take a closer look at Satan’s plan as revealed
in Eve’s story and Jesus’ story:
• a. Make us crave some sort of physical
gratification to the point we become
preoccupied with it. Be it sex, drugs,
alcohol or food.
• b. Make us want to acquire things to the
point we bow down to the god of
materialism. Keep us them distracted by
making our eyes lust after the shiny things
of the world

7. AGE OLD TACTICS OF SATAN’S
ATTACK ON OUR HEARTS…
• c. Make us boastful about what we have or do.
Keep us distracted and obsessed with our
status and significance. Choke the life out of us
uing the tentacles of our own pride.
• There was a huge difference between Eve’s response to
Satan and Jesus’ response to Satan. Eve dialoged with
Satan and allowed him to weave his tangled web of
justifications. Jesus on the other hand, immediately
quoted truth. With every temptation, Jesus quoted
Deuteronomy as He answered, “It is written …” and He
shut Satan down with the truth of God

9. • When we turn to God and the power of
His Word, it’s a clear sign to the enemy
that we are marked!
