Luke 4:11

4 Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, 2 where for forty days he was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of them he was hungry.

3 The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.”

4 Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone.’ ”

5 The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. 6 And he said to him, “I will give you all their authority and splendor; it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to. 7 If you worship me, it will all be yours.”

8 Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.’ ”

9 The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down from here. 10 For it is written:

“‘He will command his angels concerning you
to guard you carefully;
11 they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’ ”

Good morning,

This Sunday, join us as we dive deep into the first Sunday of Lent, exploring the powerful story of Jesus' temptation in the wilderness (Luke 4:1-11). Satan baits Jesus with the promise of quick satisfaction, power, and glory, but Jesus resists every lure, showing us how to navigate the temptations we all face.

Are you ready to face your own temptations? Let’s learn from Jesus’ example—resisting the hook of sin and depending on God's promises. Don’t miss this transformative service as we start our 40-day journey of reflection, renewal, and growth.

Consider inviting family, neighbors and friends to join us on this journey over the next 40 days as well! See you Sunday!
