Lennon •übjtcfß nf>d Scripture t#xtß •*- krtrd and copyrighted by InUrrnahorwil Coun-ll of KeiKiouß Education; used by pernnmion JESI'S* PROGRAM FOR MEETING LIFE'S PROBLEMS LESSON TEXT—M*tth»w 4:M; S3L 34. Luke 4 :1(1-21. GOLDEN TEXT—Man (hell not live by bread alone, but by every word that proeeedeth out of the mouth of God —Matthew 4:4. Problem*, sorrow*, need*, anxletie»—how they pres* in on mankind from every direction. What is he to do about them? He cannot meet them in hi* own strength. They worry him almost to the point of distraction. What shall he do? There is just one answer, and it Is blessedly simple and completely satisfying. Take your burden* to the Lord and leave them there! Cast all your care upon Him. for He careth for you <1 Pet. 5:7). From the teaching* of Jesus our lesson tells us why arid how we may do this. Let us not mis* it* glorious —and convicting—message. I. We Can Overcome Temptation Through Christ (Matt. 4:1-4). Temptation Is the common lot of all mankind <! Cor. 10:13). The strongest and most noble of men are subjact to it. Angels were tempted, and our scripture reveals that even Jesus was tempted We recognize that Jesus was tempted as the Messiah (vv. 3. 61 and a* one without sin (Hob. 4:19), but it is also true that He was tempted In all points as we arc. apart from sin, and that we may learn from Hi* temptation how we may meet and be the victor* over temptation. We learn of our Lord that temptation* may be victoriously overcome— 1. By the right use of Scripture. If Jesus needed that weapon, how ean we do without it? But how can wo use Scripture if we do not study it and hide it in our hearts? 2. By dependence on God. Every Scripture used by Jesus honored God. We eannot fight Satan in our own strength. To attempt to do so is to fail utterly. The real victory for the Christian is to bring Satan back to the cross where Christ won a decisive victory over him. 3. By denouncing Satan. Jesus sent him on his way. We may do the same in Jesus' name. It is always a serious error to try to argue with Satan or to engage in any discussion with him. Let us meet him with Scripture and say "Get'thee hence " 11. We Can Learn to Trust God for our Dally Needs (Matt. 6:31-34*. SATr.e want to be rich. Their folly is made clear in verses 19-24 But then there arc some who while not wanting to be rich, are in constant anxiety about food and raiment for the mor.uw. What is the answer of the Lord Jesus? Consider the birds They are not -able to work, nor are they able to pray, but God feed* them. Consider the glory of the flower* of the fields, for not even a king can dress himself in such beauty. "Are ye not mueh better than they?" (v. 26i. "As far as known, no bird ever I tried to build more nest* than it* neighbors; no fox ever fretted because It had only one hold in which to hide; no squirrel ever died of anxiety lest he should not lay up enough nut* for two winter* instead of ene; and no dog ever lost any sleej over the fact that he did not hav* enough bones laid aside for hi* declining years" (Public Health Proper forethought is good and right, for we are intelligent being*, but about our daily need* is always dishonoring to God. YY», say* someone that's all very wel|» ..but how about the future? Weh. why should we fret about that? It i£ih God's hands, and even if R wer* in our hands, what could we do about it? Even tomorrow, with its tfteds and it* blessing*, with its joy and it* sorrow*, i* not yet her*, and when It doe* come, there will be God'* gracious provision for each passing hour. 111. We Can Follew ( hrhii In SacrMeial Service (Lake 4:IMI). Let u* be elear at once that we canflbt do what Christ did, for He is the Son at God. He had a specisl ministry to perform a* the Messiah, may learn much from this •to* Jeau* began Hi* ministry among Hi* “own people even though He knef of their unbelief. He used the Woad of God as the background for Hi* calling. He recognise3 the sped*! need of the poor and th* suffering, and especially of those who w*r£ bruised and broken by sin. In.all these thing* we may follow Hi* -example. Let u* declare the trudT to those nearest to u». even If they do reject iL Lot u* took to God * Word for our cell and our commisfrom that of Je*us, but aevertheto** from God and for Hi* glory. Then, too, let us learn of Him that we ere to serve those who are moot needy and possibly neglected, serving their physical needs, but above all bringing to them the light of God * redeeming grace Here is Ugbt tran the Lord o* our Breblam* of tin. aogrow, supply andaarvlc*
