Matthew 4:5-7

God is knowledge.

He alone provides the knowledge used in medicine, science and environmental issues for all of His creation. We should learn by the wisdom that He gives humanity. 


To throw aside the wisdom that only He can give is foolishness. The pandemic provided the perfect scenario…take the vaccine. Do not tempt the Lord your God by burying your head in the shifting sand of conspiracy. Only He could provide the knowledge to protect us as He has done in past generations with vaccines for polio, mumps, measles, flu etc, etc, etc.


Satan seeks to kill, steal and destroy your life…do not let him!


Matthew 4:5-7

5 Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, 6 and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written:

‘He shall give His angels charge over you,’

and,

‘In their hands they shall bear you up,

Lest you dash your foot against a stone.’ ”

7 Jesus said to him, “It is written again, ‘You shall not tempt the Lord your God.’ 


This test of God’s providence is far more extreme than any test Israel underwent in the desert. No biblical precedent exists for God’s choosing to save someone from falling in this way. Faithlife Bible.


Deuteronomy 6:16 emphasizes that one should not test God. The Lord asked the Israelites to put Him to the test in only one area: tithing. By giving to Him they could test whether He would fulfill His promises to bless them (Malachi 3:10). NKJ Bible.


Deuteronomy 6:16 “You shall not tempt the LORD your God as you tempted Him in Massah.
