Sharing our Scripture for Next Sunday, February 22, 2026: The First Temptation of Christ

 Our Scripture for Sunday, Feb. 22, 2026 is Matthew 4: 1-11.  

The Spirit has driven Jesus out into the wilderness where He is tempted 3 times by the devil.  This particular story is the Biblical origin of the popular television show "Lipsynch Battles".  However, in its original, Biblical format, it is not a battle of music.

It is a battle of Scripture.  The devil has a bible quote for every occasion.  And Jesus has one to return.  In this passage, the devil assumes he has control of the whole world.  But Jesus corrects him on that overstatement.  

The 22nd will be our monthly healing service.  In our passage, we can see the origins of the power that we know is in the Lord Jesus as he heals us.  May we be blessed to know his power.

Peace,
Pastor Pete
