Camping for 40 Days…Seriously!

Today’s Scriptures…

Mark 1:13-14

13 and he was in the wilderness forty days, being tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals, and angels attended him. 14 After John was put in prison, Jesus went into Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God.

Thoughts…

Forty days! Forty Days!!! Now, I love comping but forty days!!! Sorry, that is beside the point. The real point is Satan was there bugging Jesus for forty days, no letting up, no going easy. Forty days of pick, pick, pick. Jesus has been there y’all. He knows exactly what it is like when we are putting up with Satan and his little tactics in our lives. 

Please don’t think that Satan was still not around after those forty days. However, for those forty days they were one on one. Remember Satan is not like God. He is not omnipresent. He has minions and schemes and tactics that he unleashes, but he is not in our face, like he was with Jesus.

When you are struggling and pray, you are not talking to some being who has never experienced your problems. He is empathetic. He feels everything you are going through because He has been there, done that and bought the t-shirt. So, load Him up with all your cares and burdens. He is ready to hold them all and comfort you today!

Prayer…
