Matthew 4:7; It is Written

Open Bible showing the New Testament and the Gospel according to Matthew on a wooden table with glasses and coffee mug nearby

Jesus said to him, “Again, it is written, ‘You shall not test the Lord, your God.”


This verse records Jesus’ response to Satan during His temptation in the wilderness: “It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.” Satan had challenged Jesus to throw Himself from the temple to force divine rescue, but Jesus refused to misuse God’s power. This verse teaches that faith is not reckless testing of God, but humble trust and obedience. We are not called to demand signs, manipulate circumstances, or presume upon God’s protection. True faith follows God’s will rather than forcing His hand. It reminds believers to trust God wisely, reverently, and without arrogance.
