October 3 Read: Matthew 3-4
After fasting 40 days, Jesus was hungry. Satan takes advantage of every opportunity to lay land mines of sin and temptation in our paths. Jesus told us to be watchful and prayerful because our spirit is willing to obey God but when the flesh is weak, it is weak. Matthew 26:41
None of us are immune to these real life situations. Our reaction to temptations, test and trials, determine whether we experience the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat!
The Key that Jesus gave will keep us on the path to victory and joy in the Lord. The main ingredient we need in our lives, is the knowledge that comes from God's mouth...
His message is simple; we need food to sustain our flesh and the Word to sustain our spirits.
2 Corinthians 2:11 says, Satan has the advantage over us as long as we are Ignorant of how he operates. We learn how Satan operates through the Word of God. Spending quality time daily with God's Word and you will be prepared for all the strategies of the enemy.
Faith Confession: Father I declare that I will meditate the Word daily and maintain my Victorious life. I live above the circumstances because I live by the Words that come from the mouth of God, in Jesus' name, Amen!
Hi Pastor. Though Jesus died for our sins, He lived on the earth and still lives today. God did not just give us life. He shows us the way and is the Way that everyone should live. He gave us a good life, not one to be ashamed of, but one that gives Him all the glory, honor, and praise. Who wants to be like a sad, angry, poor, loser. Though people follow that a bad example like the one just mentioned(knowingly or not), I believe they really don't want to. By ignorance and unbelief towards God's Word, they have no choice but to do what is wrong. We must never be afraid or ashamed to ask God for help. He will feed us with bread from heaven just as we feed on earthly food. The Word of God is the food of Champions.
