Lead us not into temptation

• Micah 6:8 (NASB)

---

Parallel this verse with the passage in Matthew 4 when Jesus is led into the desert to be tempted.
What are the three ways Satan chooses to tempt the Son of Man?
Comfort (selfish desires, hunger)
Power (whatever it takes to get to the top)
Popularity (taking away from God's glory)

What do we read from Micah here that is important?
Justice (putting others' needs above your desires)
Kindness (giving of yourself)
Humility (giving God all the glory)

As we pray through the Lord's Prayer (Matthew 6), and come across the section "Lead us not into temptation..." I believe the best way to be led away from temptation is to be led towards something else. The Lord is leading us towards Justice, Kindness, and Humility. Are we following Him?
