How Did Jesus Overcome Tempation?

"For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God" (2 Cor. 5:21). "For it was indeed fitting that we should have such a high priest, holy, innocent, unstained, separated from sinners, and exalted above the heavens" (Hebrews 7:26). Jesus was God in the flesh, yet He was human. He was tempted. The writer of Hebrews says, "For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin" (4:15). Luke 4:1-13 tells of His temptation. Verse 13 says "And when the devil had completed every temptation, he departed from him for a season." Just for a season. He came back to tempt our Savior again. One of the times we know about is when Jesus was praying before His crucifixion. He begged God with tears not to have to go through with being crucified. God said no. Jesus, the obedient Son, did His Father's will.

God's Desires for You

¹⁰Jesus said, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’”

¹¹Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him.

Can we see how Jesus answered Satan and how He withstood temptation? Jesus knew God’s Word. He said, “It is written” each time He was tempted. His every answer was from the Bible. Jesus knew that God was His Father, and He strove to be an obedient Son.
