LIGHTHOUSE ASSEMBLY OF GOD

Welcome to LIGHTHOUSE Assembly of God

Please join us in worshipping our Lord and Savior!

 


I Believe in Jesus Christ

It Is Written

Read Luke 4:1–13

In Luke 3, we read the powerful encounter of Christ’s baptism. The Holy Spirit in the form of a dove descended upon Him, and God the Father audibly affirmed Jesus’ Sonship, bestowing His credentials for ministry. Afterward Jesus is led into the wilderness by the Holy Spirit.

Temptation often comes to us after a spiritual blessing. Satan knows when we are vulnerable or complacent. We need always to be on guard. Knowing and obeying God’s Word is the only offensive weapon in our spiritual armor. Jesus used Scripture to counter the devil’s attack.

Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only’” (Luke 4:8).

Temptation itself is not sin. It is comforting to know that Jesus was tempted and did not sin. Jesus’ temptation came when He was alone, tired, and hungry.

Are you listening to Satan’s offer of relief? Is it really companionship and gracious living that you need? Are you full of the Holy Spirit and God’s Word to answer Satan with authority?

Challenge for Today: Resist the devil through worship and the Word.
