If the devil was the evil desires within Jesus' heart, then it is understandable that by his having the Word in his heart and reminding himself of it, he could overcome those bad desires. Psalm 119:11 is so relevant that perhaps it is specifically prophesying Christ's experiences in the wilderness: "Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against Thee".
Ikiwa ibilisi yalikuwa ni mawazo mabaya ndani ya moyo wa Yesu, basi inaeleweka kwamba kwa tendo la kuwa na Neno la Mungu ndani ya moyo wake na kujikumbusha mwenyewe, aliweza kuyashinda mawazo haya mabaya. Zab. 119: 11 ni ya muhimu ambapo labda ni bayana alikuwa anatoa unabii wa yaliyompata Kristo jangwani:"Moyoni mwangu nimeliweka neno lako, nisije nikakutenda dhambi".
