Jesus stood on God’s Word, not His own, to resist temptation. Like Jesus, we can use the power and authority of Scripture to beat the devil’s schemes.

Satan tempts Jesus (and us) with power, praise, and ‘shiny things’. These promise fulfillment, but fade. Worship God above all and find true satisfaction.

When suffering we tend to question God’s love and faithfulness. However, Jesus demonstrated unwavering trust, resisting the temptation to test God’s loyalty.

Trials reveal whether we trust God’s power or rely on ourselves. Do we recognize Him as the true provider? Will we draw near to encounter the Holy in the hard?

God’s tests refine and grow us, offering opportunities for faithfulness. The enemy schemes to make us stumble. How can we pass the test?

Strong community is built on forgiveness and a desire to resolve conflict rather than let resentment fester. Jesus tells us how to restore relationships.

God calls believers to forgive which isn’t easy. When hurt, we instinctually hold resentment. Forgiveness breaks the cycle of pain and restores peace.

Tossing and turning at night looping worst-case scenarios? You’re not alone. Don’t let worry steals your peace; turn worry into prayer. Trust God to handle it.

We all want to be heard and understood which comes down to listening well. God intends His church to hear, understand, and learn from diverse people.

God designed the church to be a harmonious, diverse community. Every person’s gifts and perspectives add value by broadening our understanding of God.
