When Jesus declared, “Away with you, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve’” (Matthew 4:10), He was not merely rejecting a temptation but revealing the absolute and exclusive claim of God upon the human heart. It has been said that if Jesus is not Lord of all, then He is not Lord at all. His immense redeeming love calls for our total consecration to Him. He gave His all for us. Let us then give our all for Him. A life of uncompromising faith is a life of unlimited power. As Wesley says, “Faith the mighty promise sees, and laughs at impossibilities!”
