then angels came."
We read in Matthew 4 about the temptation of Jesus in the wilderness. He was enticed by the enemy ....
1. To fail in His destiny.
2. To fail in His purpose.
3. To fail in His focus.
4. To fail in His authority.
5. To fail in His testimony.
6. To fail in His future.
7. To fail in His obedience to the Father.
But for every negative word spoken by the enemy; Jesus responded with "THE TRUTH". No debating - no contention - no argument - no difficulty - no struggle...Jesus just said to him: "IT IS WRITTEN" and nothing more.
How simple. How powerful.
Jesus went into the testing season full of power, and He walked out full of power by simply talking His way out! The difference between us and Jesus.... is: He Only Spoke Truth from the Word. In fact, Jesus knew that was all He needed to speak! Satan is a liar and the father of lies and the truth is not in him, therefore, he can't handle TRUTH.
Speaking the Truth ( what God says ) will gain a victory over every test / trial you may encounter.
You can Talk Your Way Out Of Whatever You are Going Through.... Jesus did.
After truth was spoken by Jesus in response to every suggestion made by His adversary:
Satan had nothing else to use - he had nothing else to say - he could do no damage - he ran out of options - and the only action remaining for him was to simply 'leave'.....
"Then angels came to Jesus and ministered to Him"
It's simple. Why don't we try it? We've nothing to lose and everything to gain.
Matthew 4:11 "Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him."
Start talking! Angels are drawn to Words of Truth. You might even have visitors today.
