The Book Of Matthew Ch 3-4 Preparing The Way

In the next two chapters 3 and 4 we see that John the Baptist Prepares the way for the kingdom of heaven. Yahushua is then baptised by John who is then led by the spirit into the wilderness to be tested. Yahushua fasted for 40 days and nights before He was tested by Satan.

I gotta say that while on my own spiritual journey I also have been tested in the wilderness. Although I have never fasted for 40 days and nights I do take time to fast from time to time to get my body used to it. I continue to train my body and deny my flesh when I feel led in the spirit myself.

 Otherwise being that I am on this journey while homeless I do run into days of getting barely any sleep. That being said when I have fasted and/or am sleep deprived I feel more connected to the spiritual realm. My main focus becomes that I am meditating on scripture during this time as well. At which point I am also tested by the enemy. This training of the body is also training of the mind as well because you have to be able to think clearly when being tested remembering as well to be slow to speak. 

This is how these chapters are applied in my life. I have taken notes as to how Yahushua responds to the temptations of Satan and how He responds with verses from scripture. At the same time Satan knows scripture better than me or any human being... So he will use scripture to twist it as he did when testing Yahushua in the second test because that's where he referred to scripture also.

Matthew 4:5-6

[5]Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple.

[6]“If you are the Son of Yahuah,” he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written: 

“ ‘He will command his angels concerning you, 

    and they will lift you up in their hands, 

    so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’ ”

It is important to remember that Satan comes dressed as an angel of light to test and tempt you.  His spirit my inhabit any human open to him so you can be tested.

By doing these readings I pray you take note and pay attention to how it's applied in your life and where it is you need to strengthen your spirit. 

A side from that for me I am able to remember scripture better when I am reading it over and over spirit led of course so it's written on my heart.
