Jesus overcame temptation

Matthew 4:1-11

"You are Christ, the Son of the living God."

"You are an evangelist."

"It's a joy to be together."

The title of today’s message is, Jesus Overcame Temptation.

Jesus came to this earth in a physical body like ours.

The way Satan touches us is the same.

The way they touch us is the same way they touch Jesus.

I hope you will be victorious in your spiritual battle with today’s word.

As we go through life, problems and tests are bound to come.

How should I look at the exam?

This is a very important point.

Aren't exams boring?

During middle and high school and as you advance to university, you take midterms and finals twice a year, 16 times over 4 years.

But after taking the exam like this, there was still an exam left called the graduation exam.

I thought it was over, but I had to take exams for graduate school, driver's license, and certification exams.

There are so many tests. Please don't count them.

Our descendants often say this. They want to live in a world without exams.

We live a life full of trials, and living a spiritual life is a series of trials.

There are two types of tests.

First of all, this is a test.

We live in a life that is like a wilderness, and it is a test to restore our faith and grow spiritually. This test is a very blessed test.

In the midst of tribulation, the fulfillment of hope is the test God gives us.

He is trying to expand our vessel through the wilderness.

There is one more thing to the test. Jesus went out into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.

The devil never sleeps.

Without eating or resting, they are looking for our gaps.

So we must always stay awake.

So I think the trials the devil gives us are very beneficial to us because they keep us awake.

Even the devil's trials can sometimes be beneficial to us.

But the devil continues to give us trials that destroy our lives.

Actually, tests are a good thing.

Pastor, why are exams good? Please change your mind.

Which side of you do you think Satan will attack?

Attack your weak points

The fact that the test is imminent means that you do not have the power to overcome this attack.

Even though everything was finished on the cross and we were saved, the attack is not over, so we keep getting caught up in it and being shaken.

This needs to be updated and changed quickly, and then we will find the answer.

The reason God gave us this test is to quickly renew us.

In the old days, we hated renewal and change. However, renewal is a great blessing to us.

Because we are afraid of trials, Satan continues to attack us.

There are definitely answers on the test paper.

A test paper without answers is not a test paper.

We already have the perfect answer: 'Jesus is the Christ, the solution to all problems'

I hope you continue to enjoy your exams.

Exams are so hard and painful, how can you possibly enjoy them?

When a wave crashes, the one who expects the wave will ride it.

When you get married, aren't you afraid because you don't know the other person? But please change your thinking. If you think, 'There must be a plan and purpose of God who has given that person to me,' things will change.

I marry with gratitude.

Everything should be appreciated.

He will give us trials that we can bear.

If you can't handle it, He promises to provide a way out.

He gives us trials that we can handle, but if we cannot handle them, He promises to provide a way of escape.

How great is our country, they say they give work incentives to the unemployed.

The government provides incentives. It's hard to raise children, but they say that children also receive incentives.

There are so many things we don't know. We often don't benefit from our ignorance.

There are ways to live. I thought I knew everything, but there are things I don't know.

People who make extreme choices, I think, are hopeless and hopeless, but that's because they only looked forward.

Look around you. Do you have to go to college? No. You can get a job right away like Seonghwa.

God has never given us a test.

I hope you take this to heart.

Sometimes I create tests.

God has never given us a real test.

It is God's will that children do well.

When the road is blocked, we think that it is all a test and a problem.

But even at the lowest level, there is an answer.

I hope you enjoy it.

He provides a way out.

He only gives you tests that you can handle.

When the test comes, you just have to do well and win.

This is the method we use when the test comes.

The important thing is to hold on to the Word when Satan attacks.

I hope you conquer your thoughts.

Thoughts are very important.

Christ must be the Lord of my life.

Am I the master of my life? No. The Lord must be our master.

When the Lord is in charge, problems are no longer problems.

Whatever the type of test, we must open our spiritual doors and be able to discern the test well.

Whether it is a test given by people or a test given by God, we must clearly find the answer and meaning in it.

Aren't we disciples of Christ? We should learn through Jesus.

If we ever face difficulties in our lives, I hope that we can pass the test with flying colors, just as Jesus did, and move forward on the path that God can only use.

Satan continues to attack us, but we must advance in the spiritual battle.

Coming to the main point, let's look at verse 1 of today's text. It says, 'At that time, Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.'

If we, like Jesus, are led by the Holy Spirit, problems will no longer be problems.

He said that he fasted and prayed for 40 days.

Please focus on prayer.

I hope that the power of prayer, the strength of prayer, will be restored in your life today.

Prayer gives us spiritual power to overcome the devil.

The spiritual battle against the forces of darkness also comes through prayer.

When you experience the power and authority of this prayer, you will be able to overcome and enjoy it abundantly.

The next time a problem comes up, you can win because you have an answer that has won you in the past.

Look at someone like Joseph. He said that God was with him 24 hours a day, even in a lonely place.

I continued to stay awake and be with God.

I hope that you and I can experience all the problems and adversities and conquer and overcome the test.

Secondly, there are three temptations of the devil.

First, he told them to turn stones into bread and eat it.

The devil said, “Turn these stones into loaves of bread.”

Jesus fasted for 40 days. How hungry must he have been?

It should be a prayer, but because of the fast, you just wait for the prayer to end.

It is extremely painful for people to starve, so how could Jesus not overcome it?

You can live by the words that come from God.

When the test comes, please hold on to your covenant.

When trials come, do not stay away from church and worship, but receive more grace. Please come into the church more.

Man does not live by bread alone.

Man does not live by bread alone.

I pray that everything goes well for me, the Bible says.

When we receive the word, we receive physical and spiritual strength.

If there's anyone who's having a hard time, please listen to what they have to say.

If you are admitted to the hospital, there is really nothing they can do.

We can only listen to the word, praise, and pray.

There is nothing I can do. But if I listen to the words and live by them, it becomes strength.

As you continue to listen to the word and as trials come, you will be able to enter deeper into worship.

I hope you will pass through everything God wants you to do and become a great evangelist.

The second time the devil told him to jump off the pinnacle of the temple.

It was something that stimulated a sense of honor.

Satan was testing the spiritual with material things.

Thirdly, he went to a very high mountain, and the devil showed him all the kingdoms of the world and said that he would give them all to those who bow down to him.

Even if you miss a worship service, it won't be noticeable, but this is a thought that comes from Satan.

The object of our worship is only Jehovah God.

You must serve only God.

That's who we are.

Even now, Satan gives us tests, but most of them are about food, clothing, and shelter.

We must discern wisely and overcome it well.

Jesus overcame this test by quoting the Bible and using the Word.

The first, second, and third tests were all overcome using the words of the Bible.

You can counter Satan's attacks with the Word of God.

The only offensive weapon is the word.

It is the only power, the secret, and the temptation.

You just need to listen to the words spoken from the podium.

In Matthew 4:11, it says that the devil left Jesus, and angels came out and ministered to him.

The devil must go away.

For the devil to leave, the kingdom of God must come to me.

Please let all the dark history that tests me, worries me, and causes me anxiety go away.

The prayer that binds darkness is a great prayer.

A prayer for the darkness that prevents us from hearing the Word is a tremendous prayer.

People around you need light.

When that scene is set, the darkness leaves and darkness falls on that scene.

We only held on to the word and the covenant, and He sent us an army of angels.

Whatever you do in life, live by the Word.

We also hold a funeral service at the funeral.

When you get married, you also have a wedding thanksgiving service.

Even when I go to work, it is worship and the word.

There must be a reason why you were sent to this school.

We must go and seek the word to find out what God's plan is.

Is the test a problem? Please organize today's message well.

The problem is me, who can't hold onto the words.

In conclusion.

The Bible is not a word written in ancient times, nor is it a finished word. It is a word that is still ongoing.

The devil is also doing the same thing.

Thoughts are so important.

When trials come, we must find a point that pleases God.

You have to choose completely here.

In any case, we must head in the direction that God is pleased with.

Enjoy the test and don't be afraid. God has provided a way for you to do everything.

Please pray this week. 'It is not the test that is the problem, but please heal my spiritual condition where I cannot hold on to the Word and cannot hear the Word.'

I think you should pray for the Kingdom of God to come to your workplace and school.

Thank you, God.

Just as Jesus was tempted by the devil, there are times when we face temptations while living on this earth.

But God promises that He will give us trials that we can handle, and that He will also provide a way to escape them.

Please help me overcome with your word wherever I am, and keep me spiritually awake so that trials are not trials to me.

In the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.
