40 Days Lent Devotional - Day 3
Meditation:
Take a moment to intentionally reflect and focus on God, God’s Word, and God’s works.
Engage with the Scripture:
Interact with the Scripture not merely for the purpose of knowledge, but rather for transformation and discipleship to Jesus.
- What was the original intent? (Context/Content)
- What does it mean? (Interpretation)
- How should it shape and form me? (Application)
Matthew 4:2-4
After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. 3 The tempter came to him and said, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.”
4 Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”
I can fight the temptation of self-gratification by receiving from God ultimate satisfaction.
