1 " We know Satan will attack weak spots first. Forty days of fasting left Jesus famished, so Satan began with the topic of bread. Jesus' stomach was empty, so to the stomach Satan turned. Where are you empty? Are you hungry for attention, craving success, longing for intimacy? Be aware of your weaknesses. Bring them to God before Satan brings them to you. Satan will tell you to turn stones into bread (Matt 4:3). In other words, meet your own needs, take matters into your own hands. "

2 " Cuando el general George Patton contraatacó al mariscal de campo Rommel durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, se dice que en el fragor de la batalla Patton gritó: «¡Leí tu libro, Rommel! ¡Leí tu libro!». Patton había estudiado La infantería al ataque, el libro de Rommel. Conocía la estrategia del jefe alemán y planeó sus posiciones conforme a ella2. Nosotros también conocemos las tácticas del diablo.

3 " There we stood. Elephants to our left, lions to our right, only a stone's throw from hippos and leopards, and what were they doing? Playing with a doodlebug. Don't we all? Myriads of mighty angels encircle us, the presence of our Maker engulfs us, the witness of a thousand galaxies and constellations calls to us, the flowing tide of God's history carries us, the crowning of Christ as King of the universe awaits us, but we can't get our eyes off of the doodlebugs of life: paychecks, gadgets, vacations, and weekends.
