MESSAGE: Lead Us Not Into Temptation | October 19, 2025

The final week of the series, "The Lord’s Prayer", focuses on the phrase "and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil." This is a reminder of God’s protection as we respond to spiritual testing. Testing is both real and necessary—God doesn’t tempt us, but He allows tests to strengthen our faith, reveal our weaknesses, and teach us dependence on Him. Examples from Jesus’s wilderness temptation and the Israelites’ trials we can see that trials are opportunities for growth and perseverance, not punishment. Ultimately, God is faithful—He provides strength and a way to endure.
