Lent Devotion, Day 4 of 44

Read Matthew 4: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+4&version=NRSV

Scripture: v. 11 “Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him.”

Observation: Temptation will inevitably come, but if we resist it, God will provide relief. He will give his angels charge over us.

Application: I need to seek God’s guidance through prayer in times of trial. I also need to depend on God more, and my self less.

Prayer: God, thank you for keeping watch over us through your angels. Though many temptations and evils surround us, you rescue those who turn to you in times of trial. Amen.
