       God led Jesus to be tempted for his own glory, his own purposes, so that he might be tempted and yet shown guiltless. For the same reason we may be undergoing a series of temptations from Satan, which try and test our character to see where we stand in our own personal growth. We do know that when we speak back God’s Word, and put our trust in God, that we can and will endure through trials and temptations and come out on the other side just fine. Thirdly, Satan and his demons can tempt us with different things even without God’s leading as I’m sure we are all familiar with and deal with on a daily basis. Satan tempts us because he wants to mess up our relationships with God, our fellowship with God, and he tempts us because he wants to mess up our lives, and cause us to lose good things, good gifts, from God, and our own personal peace. Satan’s way of doing something is never better then God’s way of doing something.
