The Word for You Today

1.  Jesus was…tempted. Mat. 4:1

• Temptation is a compliment, proving you are called by God
• Temptation is confirmation you are following God’s will.
• Do as Jesus did when He was tempted…defeat the tempter with the Word of God.

2.  Each one is tempted.  James 1:14

• We are tempted to worry about provision, but God knows our needs, and will take care of us.
• We are tempted to worry about our protection/safety, but God watches over us.
• We are tempted to want “position”, but God alone is the one we should worship.
