Matthew 4:1-11 - Tempted Yet Triumphant

Jul 6, 2025    Mike Montgomery

When heaven opens, hell responds—this spiritual principle explains why Satan attacks after our spiritual victories. Jesus faced three wilderness temptations targeting God's provision, protection, and promises, each questioning whether God could be trusted. Jesus countered each attack with Scripture from Deuteronomy, demonstrating how we should fight spiritual battles. To stand firm against temptation, we must know Scripture intimately, understand our identity in Christ, stay vigilant after spiritual highs, and remember we're fighting from Christ's victory, not for it. The wilderness is real, but God's refreshment follows our obedience.
