daemons; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison,
it will not hurt them at all; they will place the hands on sick people, and they will get
well.
If Christ is in Us then our life style should be different. If our lifestyle is not as
indicated in the bible then it is serious time for introspection. I am not telling this the
Bible say so. Let us look into John 12:45 And he that seeth me seeth him that sent
me
What does this mean, This means that when any one sees us they should see
the Lord. In other words our lifestyle should introduce our Lord to them. One way to
introduce Lord is living as per Mark 16:17-18. There is something more, Let us look at
1Timothy 4:12 Dont let anyone look down on you because you are young, but
set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity.
We all know from the Bible that Life and Death lies in the tip of our tongue. So
who ever want to show Christ trough you say this aloud I live my life so beautifully
that the world can see the Lord through me, I am an example for fellow believers
in Speech, in life, in love, in faith and in Purity. In Jesus Name Amen
How to change our life style?
Again we will look at Rabbi, You know the best part of Christianity, there is no other God
in my knowledge who came to the earth by birth in the way you and me are born, and
went through the similar temptations, rejections, sufferings, etc.
Thats the reason why Lord Jesus always intercedes for us, because he
understands our weakness.
Come on let us see how did Lord Jesus Handle the Temptations! ! ! !
The Temptations and Lord Jesus
Mathew 4 Talks about the three Temptations that Our Lord underwent.
On the 41st Day i.e. after 40 days and nights of Fasting, the tempter asked Jesus If
you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread Mat 4:3 What does this
mean? Superficially for Food. Ok we can manage it. But what is hidden in this
temptation?
He wanted Lord Jesus to convert the stones to food, so that he will be tempted to have
the food. So what? What was intention of the tempter? When we eat by mistake during
fasting, we start feeling as if we did a big Sin, and we forget the love of the Father and
forget about the fasting we did. The same thing he wanted Lord Jesus to do, but see
how Lord Jesus handled him.
The Second temptation!!!!! (Jump Form the Mountain Top)
Most of us want to prove to others that our lord is good. More than enjoying the
life for us we want to show to others what we are. There are some Christians, when
their faith or success is questioned, they immediately want to prove themselves to
others and they start calling Lord Jesus to Follow them, instead of Following Lord. For
some of us if anyone doubt our lord, we cant bear it, we immediately try to jump and
prove that he is wrong.
We should not do foolish things for the sake someone questioned us or doubted
our Lord. We should be confident of Our Lord and we need not prove to others the
Power of the Lord.
Tell them to experience the Power of the Lord by themselves by following Jesus.
The Third Temptation!!!!
When he understood that he is dealing with somewhat a different Youth, he tried
the Last weapon which all the youth of today are still running behind, Financial
Prosperity and Authority.
But that also our Lord told, him away from me Satan! For it is written: Worship
the Lord your God, and serve him only. Mat 4:10
How Lord Jesus able to Handle Satan, because he was sure of what Lord Could Do.
He had read bible properly and had a thorough Knowledge of it.
Lord handled Satan through the Word of God. He said It is Written. For all the
three situations he used It is written. He had a treasure of Word of God.
He did all the miracles based on the Word of God.
For us to change our life style, and show Christ in us, Let us first change our language
and improve the treasure of Words in us. i.e. the word of god in us.
Prayer:
Dear Father, I submit myself to you. I am thankful to you for the Knowledge of
the rights I have in you through Christ, for the abundance of Word of God in me. In
Jesus Name Amen.
Philip
And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip
spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did Acts 8:6
Paul
And God wrought special miracles by the hands of Paul: So that from his
body were brought unto the sick handkerchiefs or aprons, and the diseases
departed from them, and the evil spirits went out of them. Acts 19:11
And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me. Jn 12:45
