What if your biggest temptations are actually opportunities for your greatest victories? In this powerful message, Pastor Ryan Visconti unpacks the story of Jesus’ temptation in the wilderness (Mark 1 and Matthew 4) and shows how it directly connects to the struggles you and I face every day.
Jesus was hungry, tired, and alone, and the devil tempted Him to abandon suffering, abandon humility, and abandon God’s plan. But instead of giving in, Jesus resisted with the Word of God. And because He overcame, you can overcome too.
In this message you’ll learn:
• Why temptation always comes from the enemy, not from God
• How to endure suffering instead of escaping it too soon
• The danger of letting pride drive your decisions
• Why shortcuts to success always lead to regret
• Five practical ways to overcome temptation in your daily life.
You’re not the first to be tempted, and you’re not alone. Jesus knows your struggle, He’s with you in the fight, and He will help you stand strong.
