Truths To Know

Matthew 4:1-10

In these verses we read about the temptation of Jesus in the wilderness. Jesus was tempted and you and I will be tempted. There are some truths we need to know to be able to face and overcome the temptations that come our way.

  1. Jesus is the Truth. We are told in John 1:17, “For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.” Also in John 14:6, “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” Jesus will always lead you in the way that is right. Recognize Jesus is the Truth.
  2. Satan is a Liar. We learn in John 8:44, “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.” Understand that the Devil is a Liar.
  3. Jesus loves you. John 15:13, “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.” No one loves you like Jesus loves you.
  4. Satan hates you and wants to destroy you. 1 Corinthians 10:10, “Neither murmur ye, as some of them also murmured, and were destroyed of the destroyer.”

Always look to Jesus, Who loves you and wants the best for you!
