DAILY READINGS: Numbers 32:1-42; Proverbs 28:1-28; Luke 4:1-15

And thou shalt remember all the way which the Lord thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart. Deuteronomy 8:2

The above verse is a wonderful example of how God works behind the scenes in the lives of His children, developing Christian character and completing the work His Spirit has begun (Phil. 1:6). As He humbles and tests us, it reveals what is in our hearts, challenging our obedience to Him. As we submit our will to His, He will be free to do His perfect work in our lives for His honour and glory. —E. V.

All the way my Saviour leads me, what have I to ask beside?
Can I doubt His tender mercy, who thro’ life has been my Guide? —Fanny J. Crosby
