For it is written, you shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve. Luke 4:8
Satan offered Jesus, all the kingdoms of the world and all their glory, only if He falls down and worships him. This would have been an easy way for Jesus, to achieve His ultimate goal, not having to go through pain, suffering, rejection, and death. Instead, He resisted His temptation, not only by quoting the Scripture but by living it out. Without any compromise, He showed perfect obedience to the Father’s will and went through the long road of suffering to fulfill God’s purposes by worshipping God and serving Him alone.
May we draw strength from our Lord Jesus Christ, to resist our temptations. May the Lord help us not to fall for the little temptations in this world, which would rob the bigger reward in heaven. May we choose to worship our God alone with an undivided heart and serve Him only, without any compromise.
