Continuing with Luke and Lent today there are only two chapters, enjoy!
March 25: Luke 4, Deuteronomy 28 (click on the chapter to begin reading)
Luke 4. Jesus ministry starts with his Temptation in the wilderness, from which we get the 40 days of Lent. At every temptation initiated by Satan Jesus quotes scripture to show his total reliance on God and His word. Satan also uses scripture, so watch out! Going to his hometown of Nazareth Jesus fulfills the prophecy of Isaiah 61, but in his hometown he is rejected. Going forward, Jesus casts out an Unclean Spirit and heals many.
Deuteronomy 28 specifies blessings for obedience and lots of curses for disobedience.
