    • Christianity

On episode 73 of the Adorned Podcast we dive into the first part of Matthew chapter 4. Temptation is such a difficult topic, but we can find immense comfort through this passage that shows us how Jesus was tempted in the same ways we are today. When we break down these 11 verses, we notice that Jesus gives us some very practical examples for how to fight temptation in our own lives. We can praise God for sending his Son to identify with His people!



Quotes:

“We have to hide His word in our hearts so we can use it to fight temptation.”

“The question is “do you seek to Glorify yourself or will you glorify your father in heaven” The Son always gives glory to the father.” -Jen Wilkin

“God is who He says He is and He will do what He says He will do. He will provide.”

“God is our provider and just like he provided manna for the Israelites, he provides everything we need today.”

“Every temptation you face comes down to the question “Is God really good, can you really trust him?””

“God is good and His work is sufficient.” -Jeff Vanderstelt

“You can’t impart what you don’t possess.” -John Piper
