"When God saw by their actions how they turned from their evil way, he repented of the evil he had threatened to do to them; he did not carry it out." (Jonah 3: 10)
When Jesus saw their faith, He healed the paralytic. Producing the works that show conversion is important. Seeing is believing.

Whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers
"And the king will say to them in reply, ‘Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me." (Matthew 25: 40)
Lord Jesus, grant me the grace to see you always in the least of your brothers. Lord you said: “For human beings it is impossible, but not for God. All things are possible for God.” (Mark 10: 27)
Because all things are possible for you, I know you are willing and able to grant me this request.

Get away, Satan. I will not serve you.
"And he said to him, “All these I shall give to you, if you will prostrate yourself and worship me.”
At this, Jesus said to him, “Get away, Satan! It is written:
‘The Lord, your God, shall you worship
and him alone shall you serve.’” (Matthew 4: 9 - 10)
Satan promises Jesus all He wants if Jesus worships him. But the promise is fake and untrue as we see from the response of Jesus: “Get away, Satan! It is written:
‘The Lord, your God, shall you worship and him alone shall you serve.’”
In Mathew 6: 33, Jesus promises us all that we want if we seek first His kingdom and righteousness. This is a promise that is proven true for over 2000 years. Matthew 6: 33 is one of the most researched scripture verse in the entire bible. It is my favorite. The promise of Jesus covers all critical areas of human life and happiness, viz: family, finances, job, health, tools and property, food, future. We obtain all these in accordance to God's will and plan for our lives. Bear in mind that God is a loving Father who has good and great plans for all His children. (Jeremiah 29:11) In the light of this, God will not give His child a snake when the child needs a fish. (Luke 11: 11)
It is not necessary to worship Satan to get all we need for your life and happiness. God has already promised ample provision for us. When we work to know His will and plan for our lives, we will appreciate better His Divine Providence working for us.
My take away from today's bible verse is this: “Get away, Satan! It is written:
‘The Lord, your God, shall you worship and him alone shall you serve. I will not serve you Satan. I will not obey you.’”
