The Pharisees came to Jesus and began to ask him questions. Hoping to trap him... Jesus sighed deeply and said, “Why do you people ask for a miracle as a sign? I tell you the truth, no sign will be given to you.” Then Jesus left the Pharisees and went in the boat to the other side of the lake. His followers had only one loaf of bread with them... they had forgotten to bring more. Jesus warned them, “Be careful! Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and the yeast of Herod.” (Mark 8:11-15 NCV) Are you like the Pharisees, demanding and expecting Jesus to prove Himself? Or have you learned to trust Him and walk by genuine faith? Beware of having religious zeal as a disguise for devotion to God. ©Word-Strong_2014
