Today’s Thought “Spiritual GPS” G. Ward

Matthew 4

1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. ² And after He had fasted for forty days and forty nights, He then became hungry. ³ And the tempter came and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.” 

 

Our Lord, so superbly voluntary and exemplary, for the cause of disobedient children (where the whole of mankind is guilty), was challenged (incessantly) by many adversarial to Holy God’s Way, demonstrated greatest response; even that to which couldn’t be conjured by intellect, simply countered with the Word of God (cf. John 8:31-32). We now have such magnificence in the spiritual compilation granted us, so as to not defer unto another manuscript (without submission to vain philosophy, or opinions appearing plausible).

The peace in our vocalizing that HE will always be more than enough, frustrates both controversies, along with argumentative behaviors from the ill-advised and shall always stand the test of time (Matt.24:35), because our Maker ordained it to be (cf. 2 Ti.2:16). May our being careful (particularly in our wilderness experience) not allow common vulnerability to answer many without desire to hear our resolute posture.
