Verse of the Day (July 12, 2020) #BMSeminary – Happy Lord’s Day! The victory in each aspect of the temptation is related to Jesus’ use of Scripture. It is written: First, He quotes Deuteronomy 8:3, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. The source of bread is more important than the bread itself. Later, Jesus would say, “I have meat to eat that ye know not of” (John 4:32). His source of strength was obedience to the Father’s will and He would not even work a miracle to avoid personal suffering when such suffering was a part of God’s purpose for Him.
