Satan comes to us and subtly makes suggestions. Or, maybe they are not so subtle. Satan may even quote scripture to us. He did it with Jesus.
The essence of the suggestion is not trusting in God and testing Him. “If you are God, then …”
What does Jesus, the Messiah, have to say about this. What does He say to Satan.
Jesus is clear. We are not to test God. God’s goal for us is to listen to God and do what he says.
For the second test the Devil took him to the Holy City. He sat him on top of the Temple and said, “Since you are God’s Son, jump.” The Devil goaded him by quoting Psalm 91: “He has placed you in the care of angels. They will catch you so that you won’t so much as stub your toe on a stone.” Jesus countered with another citation from Deuteronomy: “Don’t you dare test the Lord your God.
(Matthew 4:7 The Message)
