Luke | How do we Fight Temptation? | Cole ellerbrock | Tomball | February 8, 2026
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Temptation is not a sign of failure. It is part of the Christian journey. In Luke 4, Jesus enters the wilderness and faces real temptation, not by accident, but by design. This passage shows us how the enemy works, why temptation often comes after spiritual highs, and how God uses the wilderness to form us. Jesus shows us how to stand firm, not by shortcuts or self-reliance, but by trusting the Father and grounding our lives in truth.
• The wilderness is not wasted. God uses it to refine and shape us
• Every temptation is an attack on identity and trust, not just behavior
• Victory comes from remembering who you are and what God has said
Key Scriptures:
Luke 4:1–13
Deuteronomy 6–8
Hebrews 4:15–16
1 John 3:8
Romans 7
Challenge yourself this week to pay attention to the lies you’re tempted to believe and respond by remembering your God-given identity in Christ. Share this message with someone who may be walking through a season of temptation or discouragement.
