Psalms 120:1-7. Verse 2, what are some lies told about me by the world, the flesh, and the devil, from which I will ask God to deliver me today?

Amos 4:6-13. How God teaches his slow-learning people with hard lessons. When have I been slow to learn and under his rod? Application for today?
Luke 4:1-15. Jesus defeats the devil’s deceptions with words from Scripture. What are some Bible truths with which I can arm myself for the battles of this day?
