In our leadership endeavours we are expected to keep climbing
to new levels. But this is practically impossible without facing new
challenges.
On the way to any new level are new devils.
On the way to your future is an Esau.
Before Jesus could assume the level of global fame he was led
by the spirit to the wilderness where he was tempted by the devil alongside
with wild beasts therein. Mk.1
His initial level of publicity was at His baptism in Jordan.
He was immediately led into the wilderness to be approved for
the new level.
Temptation is not abandonment but a stretch to spread.
Temptation advances destiny.
When you’re stretched you don’t return to previous state.
Lk4:1-14, Mk1:9-13
