Matthew 4
We do not have a God who cannot sympathize with our weakness, who doses not know our struggles, one who is un-knowledgeable about our lives. For forty days Jesus was in the wilderness and he was tempted by the devil and he was hungry. He knows what it is to be hungry and tempted. But he did not give in. He stood against the devil by quoting scripture back to him. In times of trial we should turn to scripture, it our handbook, our guidebook, that God has given us. Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth. Jesus fulfills a prophesy spoken by Isaiah by going into the territory of Zebulun and Naphtali and teaching repentance. Matthew 4 is also when Jesus calls his first disciples, Peter and Andrew.
