Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. The tempter came to him and said, If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread. Jesus answered, It is written: Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God. Matthew 4:1-4
Jesus said that the words of God are what truly sustain us in this life. His word holds the answer to every need, our eternal purpose and daily direction.
Do I revere and rely upon Jesus example and commands and the whole of Bible as my guide for life? Yes, I trust it even above my own experience.
God, may I know You from your Word as well as any man alive. Reveal Yourself in my reading and reflection upon the Bible.
