Prayed (Matthew 6:13)
“Some Greeks who had come to Jerusalem for the Passover celebration paid a visit to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee. They said, ‘Sir, we want to meet Jesus.’
Philip told Andrew about it, and they went together to ask Jesus.
Jesus replied, ‘Now the time has come for the Son of Man to enter into his glory… Now my soul is deeply troubled. SHOULD I PRAY, ‘FATHER, SAVE ME FROM THIS HOUR’? BUT THIS IS THE VERY REASON I CAME! FATHER, BRING GLORY TO YOUR NAME.’” (John 12:20-23, 27-28, NLT)
Trusted God’s Power And Character (1 Corinthian 10:13)
“He never sinned, nor ever deceived anyone. He did not retaliate when he was insulted, nor threaten revenge when he suffered. He left his case in the hands of God, who always judges fairly.” (1 Peter 2:22-23, NLT)
Used the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God (Ephesians 6:17)
During that time the devil came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become loaves of bread.”
But Jesus told him, “NO! THE SCRIPTURES SAY, ‘PEOPLE DO NOT LIVE BY BREAD ALONE, BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT COMES FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD.’”
Then the devil took him to the holy city, Jerusalem, to the highest point of the Temple, and said, “If you are the Son of God, jump off! For the Scriptures say, ‘He will order his angels to protect you. And they will hold you up with their hands so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.’”
Jesus responded, “THE SCRIPTURES ALSO SAY, ‘YOU MUST NOT TEST THE LORD YOUR GOD.’”
Next the devil took him to the peak of a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. “I will give it all to you,” he said, “if you will kneel down and worship me.”
“Get out of here, Satan,” Jesus told him. “FOR THE SCRIPTURES SAY, ‘YOU MUST WORSHIP THE LORD YOUR GOD AND SERVE ONLY HIM.’”
Then the devil went away, and angels came and took care of Jesus. (Matthew 4:3-11, NLT)
