"The Spirit immediately drove him out into the wilderness. And he was in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan. And he was with the wild animals, and the angels were ministering to him." - Mark 1:12-13, ESV.

Jesus was baptized and immediately tempted to sin by Satan. Moreover, it was the Holy Spirit that drove Jesus to the place where it would happen. God’s Spirit took Jesus to a dangerous place, a place where Jesus could be killed and where Satan was waiting. But God's angels, the host of heaven, were close by. Eventually, they tended to His needs.

Sometimes God tests His own, but He never wants us to fail. That would be a temptation by God, and God doesn't tempt anyone, according to Jesus' brother, James. “Let no one say when he is tempted, ‘I am being tempted by God,' for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one." - James 1:13, ESV.

God will test us for two reasons: to see if we will choose rightly and to grow our resilience. Understand, He will never tempt us to sin. That happens when the desires of our flesh get involved. James goes on to say, “But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. Then desire when it has conceived, gives birth to sin…" - James 1:14-15, ESV.

So when Jesus was in the wilderness, it was a test. If God did that to Jesus right after baptism, should we expect anything different? Listen, you will be taken to places where people hate you, your faith, and your God. They will want you to fail. Satan may also be there. He hates us more than anyone else. Be aware of both tempters: Satan and your own flesh.

You will go into a testing situation! But in that place, you can stand firm. God is not far, and He is watching. He believes you have what it takes to make the right choices, or you wouldn’t be there. He will never test you beyond your ability. (1 Cor. 10:13) He doesn't want you to fail. He doesn't want your fleshly desires involved at all. Stay focused, and you will pass the test. His angels will help you at just the right time. -Pastor Mike
