An Opportune Time

Luke 4:13 And when the devil had ended every temptation, he departed from him until an opportune time.
Satan never gives up! He is already defeated by the death of Christ on the cross and His resurrection, but Satan still seeks to destroy. He knows if he can lure you into sin, then you become an ineffective witness for Christ. He is just waiting for an opportune time. But keep faith, Christ has overcome the world.
John 16:33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”
Our power is the Word of God! We find solace, wisdom, courage, strength and peace, against these words, Satan can not stand and will flee! Before you are tempted to sin, remember what Christ has done for every sinner ever born. He took your place on the cross, you deserved it, He did not. You are guilty and He is not! He is pure and holy but willingly went to suffer in our place in obedience to God.
Christ is due our worship, He alone is worthy! Amen
Luke 4:17-19
17 And the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was given to him. He unrolled the scroll and found the place where it was written, 18 "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, 19 to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor."Ezek.18:4 Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die.
Ecc.
7:20 For there is not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.
Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.James 4:14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.Gal. 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.Rev. 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
