    Renewed In The Wilderness

    Contributed by Anne Benefield on Feb 19, 2008
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,563 views

    The power of Lent is in the wilderness of letting go and disengaging with the world so that we can reconnect to God.

    Introduction: The temptation of Jesus in the wilderness is a pivotal event in His life. It is recorded in Mark, Luke, and Matthew. This week we read Matthew’s account. It comes right after Jesus is baptized by John in the Jordan and before His formal ministry begins. Hear now the word of the ...read more

    Jesus Was Tempted!

    For Jesus, as for us, overcoming temptation was not a one-off fight. The temptation experience that we read of today was, if I might extend the boxing analogy, more like one...

    It’s the first Sunday in Lent and we’re back in the wilderness with Jesus.Every year we make this journey - 40 days and 40 nights it lasts! - and every year it continues to be a painful trek (as I think it‘s expected to be). And I’m conscious of the fact that a lot of ink (real and virtual) has ...read more

    We can repent and believe, but we will never grow if we don’t overcome temptation by God’s Word.

    Lead by the Spirit - still tempted Scripture: Matthew 4:1-17 As we start our message this morning, I want you to look at Matthew 3, verse 2. “John said, ‘Change your hearts and lives because the kingdom of heaven is near.’” Jesus’ first message as he began his preaching ministry was the same. ...read more

    We often find ourselves in A SEASON OF CRUSHING. I can’t seem to understand WHY we are going through this. We can’t allow our dreaming ability to be hindered! Dream on!

    WALKING THROUGH A SEASON OF CRUSHING ... THE DEATH OF EXPECTATION...

    Temptations may be bold, or subtle. Temptations may be good things to stand in the way of Devotion Temptations are for one purpose to destroy us

    Lies In Disguise—Battling Temptation Matthew 4:1-4:8 I think that we all understand what temptation is. There is a story told about a little boy in a grocery store that I think illustrates the nature of temptation. The boy was standing near an open box of peanut butter cookies. “Now then, ...read more

    Satan's Nearly Perfect Plan

     | 6,953 views

    The temptations that Jesus faced in the wilderness present a pattern that Satan has used since the creation of man. He had a nearly perfect plan to get even with God, but it failed at Calvary.

    Satan’s Nearly Perfect Plan By Pastor Jim May There’s an old saying that goes like this: “Even the best laid plans of mice and men often go awry.” Things just don’t always work out the way we plan them to. Satan’s plan to overcome man was perfect. He knew that if he could just get Adam to ...read more

    Worship is a necessary practice in growing deeper in Christ. Our worship needs to be God centered, an offering unto him.

    Do you understand that from a worldly perspective, what we are doing here on Sunday morning is absolutely ridiculous? I was recently asked, why don’t more people come to worship? Why would they? To most people worship gathering is a waste of time. Why would I go to church when I could sleep in ...read more

    It Is Written

     | 26,372 views

    When assaulted by Satan, Jesus refuted him with the Word of God. He knows, believes and applies the Word. "It is written" is very important. Can we say that today?

    There is a war going on in the wilderness. • Satan is out to tempt Jesus and stop him from doing God’s will. • Jesus defends himself with the only weapon He has – God’s Word. • Three times He responded, “It is written.” Satan is out to deceive, to lure man into doing things contrary to God’s ...read more

    Many people seem to think that God is randomly confronted with different trials and than randomly transforms them into something good in our lives.

    Matthew 4 God is in Control (4:1) 1. Jesus “was led up by the Spirit…” - God is in control here. - This was all apart of God’s plan. - God doesn’t transform trials into good. - Many people seem to think that God is randomly confronted with different trials and than randomly transforms them ...read more
