( 21 ) De 8:3 And he humbled "`anah" thee, and suffered thee to hunger , and fed thee with manna , which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know ; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only , but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live .
.. afflict .. part of God's salvation plan is affliction ..many might ask the question
why is affliction a part of God's salvation methods ? To prevent exaltation. If
things went too easily, we would rise in pride and forget Jesus.
Ho 13:6 According to their pasture, so were they filled; Jesus makes us happy
but when they were filled, But as we get happy
and their heart was exalted; we become proud
therefore have they forgotten me. and forget Jesus
A good example of this is when you over fertilize a tree, happy tree
Your get more leaves, symbol of pride
And less fruit. a selfish tree
So affliction is a necessary part of salvation's methods to keep us mournful for
Jesus. See studies on pride.
