In today’s message, the focus was on the dangers of fear and how Satan uses it to lead us into idolatry. Referencing Luke 4:1, the sermon explained that fear can drive us to place our trust in things other than God—whether it’s money, status, or the approval of others. The fear of lacking material security often leads to worshipping money, but true fulfilment comes from serving God, not wealth. Living for God brings lasting satisfaction. The importance of practices like the Sabbath, fasting, and giving was also highlighted, showing how they help prevent idols from creeping into our lives. These actions serve as reminders that our trust is in God, not in possessions or human praise. Luke 4:5-8 further revealed Satan’s deception, claiming authority over the world when, in reality, all power belongs to God. Satan rules through sin and death but lacks true power. His temptations target our ego and desire for validation, but seeking glory from people rather than God leads to emptiness, as mentioned in John 12:43. In Genesis 32:24-28, Jacob’s story illustrates how true satisfaction comes from finding our identity in God. Chasing approval or recognition from others never fulfils, but God gives us a name and purpose. Galatians 1:10 reminds us to seek God’s approval over human praise. The sermon encouraged everyone to spend time with God, as nothing will make sense if He isn’t real in your life.
