The First Temptation:  Prosperity

Mat 4:1  Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.

Mat 4:2  And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he afterward hungered.

Mat 4:3  And the tempter came and said unto him, If thou art the Son of God, command that these stones become bread.

Mat 4:4  But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.

 

Ecc 11:1  Cast thy bread upon the waters; for thou shalt find it after many days.

 

Isa 55:2  Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labor for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.

 

Joh 6:33  For the bread of God is that which cometh down out of heaven, and giveth life unto the world.

Joh 6:34  They said therefore unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread.

Joh 6:35  Jesus said unto them. I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall not hunger, and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
