Matthew Chapter 4:1-11

Watch out After every great victory there comes the greatest trial. Temptation is common to all of us, victory is not so common. This passage is designed for us to take our eyes off the temptation, focus them on the Master – The secret of victory over temptations. The great enemy of the believer is spiritual unpreparedness, lack of vigilance.

Temptations 1 Corinthians 10:12,13 Hebrews 4:15 Hebrews 2:18 Mark 14:38

Testing Temptation “Peirasmos”

T1: Grab satisfaction Genuine need. How long to wait ? You have a right to it !

V1: Grab His will The truth, “We can only produce bread but only God can produce life”. The principle then, the governing motive of my life is to do the will of God and believe Him for all the benefits. (Matthew 6:33) God’s time.

T2: Test God Reverse of T1 Asking God to prove Himself by putting yourself in a dangerous situation and expecting Him to rescue. Looking for signs and sensations

V2: Trust God Faith which depends on signs and sensations isn't faith, it's doubt looking for proof. Trust God’s promises – Know them. Trust God’s nature – Know Him.

T3: Compromise Why suffer ? Why pain ? Do it my way, I'll give you the same stuff. Just go the worlds way. Little adjustment. Fulfill your ambitions for yourself. Worship Satan – No Cross – You have a hell to deal with.

V3: Refute Receive all blessings on God's terms. Embrace cross – Live with an eternal hope. Christian life is not about you and me but it is all about Jesus Christ – Him we worship and serve

Temptation from Satan Exalts self - will Self - satisfaction Self - glorification Self - focus Self - centered

Testing from God Exalts God’s will Pleases God God focused Glorifies God God centered
