Growth

October 13, 2024 • Robbey Smith • Matthew 4:1–11

This sermon underscores the importance of spiritual growth by prioritizing our relationship with God, as exemplified by Jesus retreating into the wilderness. It explores the three temptations Jesus faced—material needs, demanding proof of God's presence, and the allure of power—and encourages reflection on how these appear in our lives. Emphasizing trust in God's timing and a solid identity in Christ, it highlights using Scripture to resist challenges. The sermon concludes with steps to deepen spirituality: daily prayer, affirming our identity in Christ, and memorizing Scripture to counter negativity.
