Was God able to give into and fall into Satan's power when he challenged His authority in Heaven? Isn't it the same difference - God manifest in the flesh?
How could the God that stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing. (
Job 26:7) ever possibly fail us in Heaven or on Earth?
Are you tempted by everything that comes before you? More plainly, there are very few men that can tempt me, but woe to me to the one that can.

That's when you really need God.
Jesus was God manifest in flesh. What was Satan tempting Him with that He didn't already have?
