Joan Boney ... apostle/prophet
Years ago, a Baptist woman would leave her purse in her unlocked car and tell people, "The Lord will take care of it." One day, someone stole her purse.
I heard, "She was tempting God."
Some people tempt God by ignoring scripture and the instructions given them. This is tempting God.
Jesus spoke of tempting God in the following scripture.
Mt. 4 ... 5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, 6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down:for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee:and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. 7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
Some people tempt God when they say, "Oh, God would never let anything happen to me", and they fail to humble themselves before God and pray.
