Promises of God in the New Testament...

Matthew 4:1-11 KJV
Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the
devil. And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward
an hungered. And when the tempter came to Him, he said, "If thou be the Son
of God, command that these stones be made bread." But He answered and said,
"It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that
proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Then the devil taketh Him up into the
holy city, and setteth Him on a pinnacle of the temple, and saith unto Him,
"If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall
give His angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear
thee up. lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone." Jesus said
unto him, "It is written again, thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God."
Again, the devil taketh Him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth
him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; and saith unto
Him, "All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship
me." Then saith Jesus unto him, "Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written,
thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and Him only shalt thou serve." Then
the devil leaveth Him, and behold, angels came and ministered unto Him.

Jesus has shown us how to resist the Devil. We should be prepared to take a
stand and call upon the Word of God to rebuke the tempter. The Word of God
is our sword. Eph 6: 11-18. And our sword is only part of our Holy armor
left to us by our precious Jesus. We MUST know the Word of God in order to
become the Word of God. In that and only that strength and through the shed
blood of Jesus can we defeat the enemy in our everyday lives. Praise God
that he gave us His weapons of warefare....Patti
