Today's Scripture *August 7, 2008*
Deuteronomy 8:3
And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live.
Jesus quoted this verse when the devil tempted Him to turn stones into bread (Matthew 4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. )
For many people life is based on satisfying their appetites. If they earn enough money to dress, eat, and play in high style, they think they are living "the good life". But such things do not satisfy our deepest longings. In the end they leave us empty and dissatisfied. Real life, according to Moses, comes from total commitment to God and living every Word that comes from Him. How can we live by His Word?
(1) Recognize our need for it!
(2) Agree that God alone can truly satisfy us,
(3) Pray for God's presence, wisdom, and direction as we read,
(4) Savor the relationship you have with Him through Christ,
(5) Practice what He teaches you!
Father God, we love Your Word!
May we feed on it daily! Apply it and use it to satisfy and sustain us!
May we continue to grow more and more each day in You!
In Jesus' Name, Amen..
Blessings!
