“Then Jesus saith to him: Begone, Satan: for it is written: The Lord thy God shalt thou adore, and him only shalt thou serve.”
Reflection for Today
Today's Catholic verse of the day is Matthew 4:10: “Then Jesus saith to him: Begone, Satan: for it is written: The Lord thy God shalt thou adore, and him only shalt thou serve.”
Matthew does not give us a distant memory of Jesus. It places us in His company, where every word can become prayer. Read in Catholic faith, this is not a decorative sentence for social media. It is a living word meant to convert, console, and send us back into ordinary life with a quieter heart.
If nothing else remains from this page, let one phrase of Matthew 4:10 remain. Before the day runs away, sit with this verse for two quiet minutes. Say it slowly. Notice which word stays warm in the heart, and carry that word into one conversation.
Prayer
Holy Trinity, I receive today's verse with the Church. Keep Matthew 4:10 close to me. Let “Then Jesus saith to him: Begone, Satan: for it is written: The Lord thy God shalt…” guard my thoughts from morning until night, and let my life quietly agree with Your word. Amen.
