“Then Jesus, being filled with the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, being tempted for forty days by the devil. And in those days He ate nothing, and afterward, when they had ended, He was hungry. And the devil said to Him, ‘If You are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.’ But Jesus answered him, saying, ‘It is written, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.”’” Luke 4:1-4
Adam lost his estate in a beautiful garden, but Jesus overcame Satan in a wilderness. How did Jesus overcome Satan? The same weapons that belonged to Adam in the Garden of Eden were the weapons Jesus used. What were they? The anointing of the Spirit of God and the authority of the Word of God were the way Jesus won this battle, and that’s the way Jesus continues to win the battle.
