TODAY’S COMMUNION READING WHAT DID JESUS TEACH US? YOUR FAITH WILL BE TESTED! EVEN JESUS HAD TO UNDERGO TRIALS. WHAT DID JESUS TEACH US ABOUT TRIALS? WHEN THE DEVIL TEMPTED JESUS EACH TIME, JESUS RESISTED HIM WITH A SCRIPTURE. IT WORKED TOO! SO HANG IN THERE…DON’T GIVE UP, AND DON’T GIVE IN. AFTERWARD, YOU WILL BE BLESSED AND STRENGTHENED JUST LIKE JESUS WAS IN MATTHEW 4:10-11. “JESUS SAID TO HIM (THE DEVIL), “AWAY FROM ME, SATAN! FOR IT IS WRITTEN: “WORSHIP THE LORD YOUR GOD, AND SERVE HIM ONLY.” THEN THE DEVIL LEFT HIM, AND ANGELS CAME AND ATTENDED HIM.” THIS WAS NOT THE ONLY ACCOUNT WE HAVE OF JESUS BEING BLESSED FOR REMAINING STRONG IN THE FACE OF TEMPTATION. IN LUKE 22:39-46, WE READ THE ACCOUNT OF JESUS PRAYING IN THE GARDEN OF GETHSEMANE. THIS WAS NOT A REGULAR PRAYER…JESUS WAS IN ANGUISH…AND HIS SWEAT WAS LIKE DROPS OF BLOOD. KNOWING…THAT WAS THE PROBLEM! JESUS KNEW HE WOULD BE LIED ABOUT, SPIT ON, BEATEN, MOCKED, AND CRUCIFIED! HE WAS SO UPSET HE EVEN ASKED THE FATHER TO FIND ANOTHER WAY TO SAVE US, IF IT WAS POSSIBLE. “…YET NOT MY WILL, BUT YOURS BE DONE.” “AN ANGEL FROM HEAVEN APPEARED TO HIM AND STRENGTHENED HIM.” JESUS IS OUR ROCK! IN EVERY WAY, HIS EXAMPLE SPEAKS TO US TO WAIT UPON THE LORD. THE BLESSINGS WILL BE AMAZING!
