The Word of God Saves!!!

The Word of God Saves!!!

Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.  And when He had fasted 40 days and 40 nights, afterward He was hungry. Now when the devil came to Him, he said, “If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.” But Jesus answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.’” Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written: ‘He shall give His angels charge over you, ’and, ‘In their hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’” Jesus said to him, “It is written again, You shall not tempt the Lord your God.’” Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.” Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’” Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him. Matthew 3:1-11

Lesson to be Learnt:

            When Satan tried to get Jesus to do wrong, Jesus always answered him with scripture. In Matthew's account of the story, with each temptation, Jesus said, "It is written", and then He would quote the scripture. You can study and memorize Bible words and "hide" them in your heart to keep from doing wrong. If you do this, you will always know how you should act in any situation. Think about how Jesus would act.

Psalm 119:11

(CEV)  I treasure your word above all else; it keeps me from sinning against you.

(Hindi) मैं ने तेरे वचन को अपके हृदय में रख छोड़ा है, कि तेरे विरूद्ध पाप न करूं।

(Kan) ನಿನಗೆ ವಿರೋಧವಾಗಿ ಪಾಪ ಮಾಡದ ಹಾಗೆ ನನ್ನ ಹೃದಯದಲ್ಲಿ ನಿನ್ನ ವಾಕ್ಯವನ್ನು ಬಚ್ಚಿಟ್ಟಿದ್ದೇನೆ.

(Mal) ഞാന്‍ പൂര്‍ണ്ണഹൃദയത്തോടെ നിന്നെ അന്വേഷിക്കുന്നു; നിന്റെ കല്പനകള്‍ വിട്ടുനടപ്പാന്‍ എനിക്കു ഇടവരരുതേ.

(Tamil OV)  நான் உமக்கு விரோதமாய்ப் பாவஞ்செய்யாதபடிக்கு, உமது வாக்கை என்னிருதயத்தில் வைத்து வைத்தேன்.

(Telugu)  నీ యెదుట నేను పాపము చేయకుండునట్లు నా హృదయములో నీ వాక్యము ఉంచుకొని యున్నాను.
