“Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led around by the Spirit in the wilderness for forty days, being tempted by the devil” Luke 4:1-2a (NASB). Being “full of the Holy Spirit” does not mean that you will not be tempted. Having His abiding Presence does not mean you will avoid the wilderness. What it does mean is that our Father has not left us ill-equipped to face the tests. The Spirit is our great inner resource in the wilderness and its times of temptation.
