3 Thoughts from the Devil
LIE: God + x = Happiness
#1: "I feel I need something.
Is God Really Enough?”
Preys on: Our need for sustenance
Wilderness: Lack of bread
Complaint: I need something but I don’t have it!
Lie: You need something God isn’t giving you.
Danger: You will look for something God knows isn’t in your best interest.
Truth: God is working all things for you good.
(Trust His words)
Danger: We may decide God and what He has provided is not enough and then search for things He would not want for us.
Answer: God's words are enough
Wilderness: Lack of bread
Possible results: Indulgence, lust, gluttony, greed
Even if I don’t get what I want, I will trust Him.
Gospel answer:
Gospel answer: You are God’s beloved child and all things work together for your good.
(Trust His words)
#2: “I feel alone.
Is God really here?”
LIE: God + Evidence He Cares = Happiness
Preys on: Our need for significance
Wilderness: Lack of water
Complaint: I need to feel significant but nobody cares!
Lie: You need evidence God is here to move on.
Danger: You will become spiritually paralyzed unless God proves Himself.
Possible results: Pride, hypocrisy, vainglory, people pleasing
Truth: God is with you, even until the end.
(Don’t test Him)
Even if I feel alone, I will trust Him.
#3: “I feel hopeless.
Is God Really the Only Option?”
LIE: x=
Preys on: Our need for hope
Wilderness: Golden calf
Complaint: I need hope but everything is getting worse!
Lie: You need a win now, it cannot wait.
Danger: You will look to other “powers” that can give you the future you want.
Wilderness: Golden calf
Truth: God is not slow (Worship him only)
Even if I feel hopeless, I will trust Him.
