Holy Week, Day 1—Disciple Makers Series #21Exemple

 Trying to trick God 

Thoughts on the message

This is the first of three attempts to trap Jesus.  This one tries to get Jesus to either side with the Romans (and isolate Him from the Jews) or reject paying taxes (and have the Romans arrest Him).

Jesus sees through the attempt and His answer is perfect.  Do not be afraid to trust God to give the right answer when you face challenges too big and complicated for you.

Prayer

Father, I see Jesus using tremendous wisdom, and His promise to us is that this wisdom is available to us.  So today, I ask that You fill me with Your Spirit of Wisdom.  I know that I do not have the wisdom that I need to deal with the tough situations I face.  I ask today that You guide me, show me where I am trusting in my own wisdom, and give me a clear ear to hear You speak and follow Your wisdom.  In Jesus’ name. Amen.
