8 Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. 9 And he said to Him, “All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me.”
10 Then Jesus said to him, “Away with you, Satan! For it is written,‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and Him only you shall serve.’”
11 Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him. Matthew 4 source
The photo above comes from a screenshot I made with my phone this morning from an article I was reading. Unfortunately between my phone and my laptop, I lost the URL for the website.
BUT I did find another source.
Here’s theLINKif you want to readThe Washington Times. Personally, I didn’t.
I was only looking for documentation of the statement in the pic above.
Saints of GOD, we are not alone in this world. Our LORD GOD is with us. We are never forsaken by Him, assailants may arise, even family and friends at times grow cold and distant, but we are safe in the warm covering of the LOVE of our Father.
Speak aloud your requests to Him today. Pour out your woes to Him. He cares. 1 Peter 5:7 And He is able to make our feet like hinds feet. SeeHabakkuk 3: 16-19.
Here’s a start: 16 When I heard, my whole body trembled, my lips shook at the sound; weakness overcame my limbs, my legs gave way beneath me. But I wait calmly for the day of trouble, when it comes upon our assailants. source
This passage is Habakkuk having penned these words to Israel but as His Saints today, The Word of the Holy One of Israel is surely for us too when our souls are beaten, when we are afraid and heartbroken.

Perhaps I am not the only one grieving what was as it is sinking in that what was shall not return. The days of ease, the days of creature comforts for the common man, the days of plenty, freedom to go and come and just be – these days are waning. Quickly.
Perhaps I took them for granted. Perhaps I wasted them. I do have regrets.
Perhaps I’m not the only one.
The world has been driven mad – forming at the mouth mad – like a rabid dog. What I think I am seeing, spiritually speaking, is hordes of rabid dogs off-leash. How do I protect myself from a rabid dog, Spiritually speaking?
Perhaps I’m not the only one.
May I soon cease to grieve what was and embrace what IS with eyes of faith and the arms of His Love and provision in this Land of Lack.
But He does TEST His OWN. These TESTS that come at the Hand of GOD only to His saints is to show us what is IN us – be it a particular area of strength to appreciate and yield for more strength OR to show us a well-hidden (from us) sin that we must admit and allow Him to help us forsake. See John 15:2; Hebrews 12:8
GOD is always good. He is always right. He is always just. HE IS LOVE. IF this is not your understanding of HIM, I urge You to seek Him for the why.

We are glad you are here; stay a while, look around, and be encouraged. We estimate there to be over 3,000 posts here at The White Stone Blog. Please know my hope is ALWAYS to help and NEVER harm. I have voiced many opinions and thoughts here since 2007 and by now I MAY NOT EVEN AGREE with all of them and some of my grammar and punctuation likely needs editing. But this is changeless: JESUS is our ONLY Savior and Hope. Do you KNOW Him?
