Another Meditation to Imagine Feeding on Every Word That Comes from the Mouth of God in Matthew 4:4

This is Christian Meditation for A Bigger Life – a time for you to stop, relax, refocus, and re-narrate your life. I’m Dave Cover. I want to help you with Christian meditation where you can break through all the distractions and experience God’s presence through biblically guided imagination.  If your podcast app is set to skip the silent sections, disable that in your podcast app for this podcast. Ephesians 6:11, 17 (NIV) 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. …17 Take …the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. The sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God Our primary weapon against the slanderer’s slander is to speak or meditate on promises/truth from God’s word. In the Gospels, when we read of the devil tempting Jesus in the wilderness, in all three temptations Jesus resisted the slanderer by speaking God‘s word from Deuteronomy 6 and 8 — passages exhorting the Israelites to trust God in their wilderness experience. Matthew 4:4 (NIV) Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’” This is what we’re doing in each episode of this podcast. When you meditate on the promises/truth of God’s word, you are eating the Spirit’s bread of life. Who can you share this podcast with?
