idea to take a walk through the gospel of Luke and dig into the words

of Jesus Himself. We’ll find them challenging and full of insight. And

with open hearts, we’ll allow the Spirit to instruct us on how we

should walk as Christians in this world.

The Temptation of Jesus (Luke 4:1-13)

The biggest mistakes we make are usually driven by something we want

that we think will bring us enjoyment or something desirable. Sure,

there are times when we know what we’re doing is wrong and that it will

cost us, but most of the time, we find a way to rationalize it so we can

pretend like we’re getting something we need out of it. At the

beginning of Jesus’ ministry, Satan shows up to try to get Jesus to turn

away from the Father’s plan for Him. How Jesus reacts can help us in

our own battles against temptation.
