Matthew (Page 3)
The Temptation of Jesus | Matthew 4:1-11
The devil will tempt us, but we don’t have to fall prey to the attacks against our flesh. Know the Word. The only offensive weapon is the Word of God! But the Word is not a magical formula that causes Satan to run. He will keep coming. Don’t just speak the Word, live the Word. Let it be the principles you live by. This is what ensures victory.
The Baptism of Jesus | Matthew 3:13-17
Are you pleased in the Son? Have you found your rest, righteousness and life in Him? If the Father is pleased with Him, then we most certainly should be as well. Have you identified your life with His through waters of baptism? He’s come and identified with us and taken our place, but have you taken your place in repentance and obedience to follow Him in this way?
Preparing The Way | Matthew 3:1-12
The kingdom of heaven is at hand. It can mean peace and blessing to those who will receive King Jesus. Or it will be accompanied with judgment and misery to those who oppose the Kingship of Jesus. Where do you stand today?
Trusting God’s Sovereignty In Uncertain Times | Matthew 2:13-23
Pastor Jeff shares how even when we face difficult times in our lives, we do not need to fear because God is sovereign. He will never leave us nor forsake us. God’s perfect will always comes to pass in His perfect timing.
Three Groups Who Knew About Jesus | Matthew 2:1-12
Pastor Stewart shares how Herod, the religious leaders, and the wise men all knew about Jesus’ birth, but they all had very different responses. Herod hated the Christ, the religious leaders were indifferent, and the wise men recognized and worshipped Him. Which group are you in?
The Arrival of the King | Matthew 1:18-25
Jesus came from heaven to earth to save us from our sins. He is God with us: Immanuel. Have you relied solely on Jesus as your salvation? Put your trust in Him and live for Him. See what He will do. For He is God with us. He will not forsake you. He will see you through!
In The Family | Matthew 1:1-17
Jesus’ genealogy is full of people who lived messy lives. It reveals to us that we do not need to wait to clean ourselves up before we turn to Jesus because we are incapable to do that cleansing. There’s nothing we can do better than to turn to Jesus and allow Him to do that work we cannot do ourselves. He is more than willing to invite one more nut into the family!
