And the devil said to him: To you I will give all the power and the glory of them because it has been given to me, and to whom I want I give it.
If your prostrate worships me, they will all be yours-
Jesus answered and said to him, "Get away from me, Satan, for it is written, 'Lord you will worship and you will only serve.'

And he took him to JERUSALEM, and put him on the pinnacle of the temple, and told him if you are a son of GOD, get out of here below.
Because written this. He will send his angels close to you, to guard you. In your hands they will hold you so that you do not trip over your foot in stone.
Jesus answered saying: You will not tempt the Lord your GOD
And when the devil had finished all temptation, he departed from him for a time.
REFLECTION
We all know what happened Jesus and the temptations that Satan gave him, but in the avoided, always stood firm and no doubt trusted his father who is in heaven, trusted him fully, that he would not leave him alone.
It is a universal experience, because it repeats itself in every human being over and over again
If we are conscious people, and after having known this experience that Jesus lived and I reject it. We learn from him, from knowing how to avoid temptations and in this way have a warm lifestyle in Christ. We must know how to combat the passion of the flesh, the passion of the eyes, and the arrogance of life.
We must have an open mind and an open heart to learn each day of GOD and to know the Bible intimately. GOD BLESS YOU
