BE SPIRIT LED & SPIRIT FILLED

January 21, 2024 • Dr Zubeda Sing, Pastor Zubeda Sing

Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted there by the devil. For forty days and forty nights he fasted and became very hungry. During that time the devil came and said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become loaves of bread.” But Jesus told him, “No! The Scriptures say,

‘People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’” Matthew 4v1-3

 

In the above scripture, we notice that Jesus was led by the Holy Spirit into the wilderness. Why? So, he could be tempted of the Devil so he could be an example to us. He even gives us the solution as to how to overcome temptation and the devil. How? Respond with the word of God. So, in essence, we have to give our attention to the word of God, we need the word in our hearts and we need to have revelation of the word, so in the time of testing and trial, it is the word that comes out of our mouth so we can overcome the devil.

 

I urge you, by the mercy of God, please give attention to the word of God, it is life to those who find them and health & healing to your bones. The word gets into your bones and marrow and very intent of your heart. Meditate on the word of God. You are not wrestling against flesh and blood so you can fight with fleshly weapons. The word is your weapon to overcome the Devil. Jesus did it and he overcame. We too can do the same as he was our first example.

 

CONFESSION/PRAYER

The word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.

The word is life to me as I find truth in it.

Jesus is the word and he lives in my heart so the word lives in my heart.

Holy Spirit, help me daily to feed on the word, it is the only diet that adds no calories to me but makes me spiritually strong. I am an overcomer in this life.
