Devotional
In our world of instant gratification, it’s easy to believe that our deepest needs can be met through physical or material means. We often try to satisfy our spiritual hunger with temporal things – success, relationships, achievements, or possessions. Yet these never fully satisfy. Jesus’ response to temptation in the wilderness reveals a profound truth: our deepest fulfillment comes not from bread alone, but from trusting in God’s provision. This isn’t just about food; it’s about all the ways we try to fill our lives with substitutes for God’s presence. True satisfaction comes when we recognize that God alone can fulfill our deepest needs.

Bible Verse
“Man shall not live on bread alone.” – Luke 4:4

Reflection Question
What temporary satisfactions might you be pursuing instead of seeking fulfillment in God?

Quote 
Man doesn’t live by bread alone, but by relying on God as he provides for them.

Prayer
Lord, help us recognize when we’re seeking satisfaction in things that can never truly fulfill us. Draw us closer to You, the only source of lasting contentment. Thank you for providing everything we truly need. Amen.
