"Worship the Lord your God and serve Him only." (Matthew 4:8-10)

Matthew 4:8-10

New Living Translation (NLT)

⁸ Next the devil took him to the peak of a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. ⁹ “I will give it all to you,” he said, “if you will kneel down and worship me.”
¹⁰ “Get out of here, Satan,” Jesus told him. “For the Scriptures say,

‘Worship the Lord your God
    and serve Him only.’


The devil offered the whole world to Jesus if Jesus would only bow down and worship him. Today the devil offers us the world by trying to entice us with materialism and power. We can resist temptations the same way Jesus did. If you find yourself craving something that the world offers, quote Jesus' words to the devil, "Worship the Lord your God
    and serve Him only".
