“What to Watch for When Tempted”

Luke 4:5-8

In every temptation there is a bigger picture and a greater danger than you can see.

That’s why Jesus repeatedly warned his disciples to watch…

1. Watch out for what Satan does:

Watch out for:

• where Satan tries to take you
• what Satan tries to show you
• what Satan tries to say to you
• what Satan tries to promise you
• where Satan tries to attack you
  • Satan’s temptation is an attack on Jesus’ relationship with the Father.
• what the greater danger is:
  • intimacy with God; ability to save

2. Watch what Jesus does:

• Fights with the Sword of the Spirit: the Word of God
  • To use the Word we have to know the Word

3. Watch for the bigger picture:

• Character of God
  • Will we trust God?
  • Jesus’ response is an affirmation of His relationship with the Father.
  • Worship deepens
• Worship of God
  • Everyone worships something or someone.
  • Worshipping God is our response of love and loyalty to Him alone for who He is and what He’s done.
  • Worship is a choice.
