About this episode

What if the greatest spiritual battles you face aren’t happening around you—but inside your mind? Right after His baptism, Jesus is led into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil—revealing a truth many of us learn the hard way: our deepest valleys often come on the heels of our highest spiritual moments. In Episode

3 of Heaven to Earth, we walk through Matthew 4 and uncover how the enemy works, why temptation doesn’t disappear as you grow in Christ, and how Satan’s primary strategy has always been the same—attacking your identity with lies. Through Scripture, Jesus shows us how to stand firm, renew our minds, and fight back with truth by declaring, “It is written.” What lies have you been believing—and what would change if you stood on God’s truth instead of the whispers? 📣 Episode Mentions: • Scripture Passage: Matthew 4 • Preacher: Pastor Joby Martin 📌 Supplemental Resources From This Week: • From Self-Worth to Surrender - Caleb's Story • Temptation of Jesus - Heaven to Earth - Matthew S1E3 (Full Service) • How to Fight Temptation and Live in freedom - Deepen with Pastor Joby Martin: Matthew S1E • Matthew Season 1: Heaven to Earth Sermon Series  • Deepen with Pastor Joby Martin The Church of Eleven22® is a movement for all people to discover and deepen a relationship with Jesus Christ.
