Finding the safe haven of God!

And Jesus answered and said to him, “It has been said, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God.’ ”Luke 4:12

Satan’s final attempt to lure Jesus away from His Father’s protection dealt with testing Jesus to jump off a high pinnacle with the belief His Father would send angels to rescue Him.

Anytime you take a step in life without praying to God for wisdom and protection you are tempting God. You are acting on your own with the belief you know what is best for you. You are rejecting the wisdom of God and functioning from self sufficiency. This behavior will lead you to destruction and misery.

From a humanistic point of view, there is a way that seems right to a man but its end will lead you astray.

God is omniscient and sees every detail of your life-past, present, and future. He knows where you can find His perfect shelter and protection.

So when you launch out on your own you are not only tempting God but you are walking into a whirlwind of trouble.

Pray each day that the Lord will be a lamp unto your feet and a light unto your pathway. Commit your works to God each day and He will guide you into a smooth path.

“The world encourages you to satisfy your desires and go after your goals without a biblical compass. If it seems right pursue it! This attitude will lead to your downfall. I gave up My life so you can share in My riches and live with Me forever!”
