Sola Scriptura: Fighting When You're Empty

from Devotions with Pastor Stanton · host Stanton Petersen

If you were going to fight a championship boxer, you wouldn't want to step into the ring after pulling an all-nighter or missing a week of meals. You’d want to be at your absolute peak. But the enemy of our souls doesn't fight fair. He doesn't wait for you to feel strong, spiritually "up," or well-rested. In fact, he specializes in the "strategy of exhaustion." He waits until you are at your lowest to throw his heaviest punches. Today, we’re looking at how Jesus handled the fight when He was at His weakest.
