God is Good.
He smiled,
When He created you.
He wants you,
To have hope.

He wants you,
To overcome the world.

Satan is evil.
He grins, when you despair.
Because he knows you will fail.
If you try—
To do it on your own…

Listen to Matthew West—Strong Enough song

In Satan’s temptation of Eve in Genesis 3 and in his temptation of Jesus in Matthew 4, we see the tactics he used and still uses with us. While varied in their details, most temptations fall into one of three categories as listed in 1 John 2:16: the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life.

Excerpts from How does Satan tempt us?

“The Lord Himself goes before you and will be with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.” Bible, Deuteronomy 31:8

“These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” Bible, John 16:33
