A Place of Growth

Follow Along with the Message

It is often said that who you know, not what you know, can bring promotions and new job opportunities. Befriending the right person and pledging allegiance to them was the devil's final temptation of Jesus in the wilderness in Matthew 4.

In the wilderness we grow by…

1.    . 

When we compare what we have, to what we wish we had, we can quickly become jealous and lust for someone else’s possession.

Our impatience can lead us to trade what will have future value for an insignificant substitute that only satisfies our momentary desires.

In the wilderness we grow by remembering…

2. He is   of  .

The culmination of the temptations in the wilderness surrounds worship. Satan desires to receive praise and worship to set himself up as the god over creation.

Don’t let your impatience or desire for a comfortable lifestyle stop you from worshipping Christ even in the wilderness.
