Description (Full):
In this week’s message, *Messiah’s Temptation from the Father of Lies | Part 3*, we continue our deep study in Matthew by examining the third temptation of Jesus. Before beginning His ministry, the Messiah faced direct attacks from Satan. These temptations reveal timeless truths about how the enemy works—and how we can stand firm in God’s strength.

Pastor Brandon unpacks the spiritual battle behind temptation, showing us that whenever we step out in faith and obedience, we should expect pushback. Satan’s tactics—doubt, denial, distortion, and deception—are still at work today. Yet, Jesus shows us how to overcome: by clinging to God’s Word, refusing compromise, and worshiping God alone.

We also explore practical applications for our lives:
- Recognizing spiritual attacks when we step out in ministry.
- Understanding the pattern of temptation that affects families, marriages, and churches.
- Guarding against covetousness and idolatry by desiring God above all else.

Jesus’ victory over temptation assures us that He is our faithful High Priest who sympathizes with our struggles (Hebrews 4:15). He overcame so that we might overcome in Him.
