Jesus was tempted by the devil on every aspect. The cross is a symbol of  the sin of mankind. Jesus didn't sin, his accusation was as a result of being the redeemer or savior of the world. 

Suicide is not only about physically taking your own life, but also praying for God to take your life.  The prophet Jonah did that. Also the great prophet Elijah did same too when he was faced with persecution from Jezebel. Samson prayed himself to death. God hates suicide even though he granted the wish of  Samson.

 Judas Iscariot who represented the devil wished Jesus to commit suicide either physically or spiritually (praying for God to take his life). At the end he was humiliated: Judas committed suicide. 

Sometimes when we get frustrated with life we resort into praying God to take our life as a way to have peace. There is light at the end of the tunnel. The devil knows that if you persist you would prevail, so he sows the seed of death in your mind.

The bible in Proverbs 18:21 says, "Life and death are in the power of the tongue."  No matter how frustrated you are, your tongue should be guided properly. Satan is after the Word and your word. 

How Satan Tried To Make Jesus Commit Suicide

1. Betrayal.

Betrayal is working against someone you suppose to work for. The betrayal Judas heart was poisoned with filthy lucre. He helped the enemies against his master. 

Being betrayed can make one to hate life, and to take his life.  

2. Denial.

Peter denied Jesus thrice. Denial suggests not identifying or allowing a person because of fear, trust or shame. Denial can weigh one down in life. It looks as if you are worthless when you're being denied. this can lead to suicidal thoughts. A lot of people have being denied their right and then some resort to suicide as a solution to their pain.  

3. Suffering.

Suffering can make one to conclude on ending his life. If one lacks endurance, he might give up on himself and resort to suicide as solution to his suffering. There are bad times and there are good times in life. Jesus endured the humiliating period. 

How Jesus Overcome Suicide

1. Predictions. 

Jesus always know the outcome of things and circumstances surrounding him. He knew all his disciples, and detected Judas as a devil incarnate. He also predicted Peter's denial which was as a result of Peter's fear. 

2. He Watched and Prayed.

Jesus watched and prayed in order to guard himself against the device of the devil in manipulating the wisdom or word of God. Satan can manipulate the wisdom of God and confuse us about the will of God. He said to Jesus according to Matthew 4:6  "  'If you are the Son of God,' he said, 'throw yourself down. For it is written: He will command his angels concerning you and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone' ".

3. He Believed in Himself.

Job said there is hope for tree as far it still has root (Job 14:7). Jesus believed in himself and refused to give up.
