Join me, Alison Elizabeth as we read out of Matthew 26:41 and Matthew 4:1-7

"“Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” 

"...I love this story. I love the picture this paints. I love Jesus’ clap backs. But something else really stood out to me. The enemy repeated scripture. Take notice of that, the enemy knows the word of God and he flipped the script and tempted Jesus with the very words we repeat and meditate on daily. 

 

Look out for snakes disguised as doves.

 

Jesus was hungry and he was tempted with food. And sometimes we are hungry. Hungry for a new job, more income, materialistic things and we feed on what the earth has to offer rather than on the word of God.

 

My prayer today, is that we take this life day by day. Trying to grow closer to God every single day. Trying to lean into our spirits rather than the flesh. But at the same time, I pray we have grace when the flesh is weak. Get back up, and try again. Today is a new day."
