Matthew 4:1-11 / Tuning In to God in the Wilderness
This week’s message, based on Matthew 4:1–11, reflected on Jesus’ temptation in the wilderness and what it means for our Lenten journey. Life is full of choices, and during Lent we are invited to examine our spiritual lives, our priorities, and our relationship with God. After his baptism, Jesus entered the wilderness – a place of testing, discernment, and clarity – where he faced many voices and temptations about what kind of Messiah he would be.
Rather than choosing power, popularity, or self-satisfaction, Jesus listened to the voice of God and chose the way of the cross, the way of love and obedience. In times of temptation, Jesus turned to Scripture, remembering God’s faithfulness and strength. This reminds us that temptation is real for all of us, but we are given the choice of what voice we will listen to.
As we journey through Lent, we are encouraged to “tune in” to God and focus on His word, allowing Him to shape our identity as children of God and clarify our calling. By deepening our relationship with God, examining our lives, and trusting in His grace, we are strengthened to resist temptation and live faithfully, reflecting Christ in our daily lives. IL-WOONG.
Our Mission is to
Connect with people in Jesus;
Build each other up in faith; and to
Become like Jesus.
