Recap of 9/10/06 (1 Kings 11:4-9)
1. We must guard our hearts against Satan, particularly his schemes, his tricks, his strategies. Ephesians 6:10-20; Matthew 4:1-11; 2 Corinthians 11:13-15)
2. He will seek to deter us from God’s will and way by tempting us:
-to fulfill legitimate needs in illegitimate ways
-to not trust God or to put God to the test
-by offering us worldly success, acclaim, fortune
3. Satan will even use the Word of God and righteousness, twisting them to suit his purposes.
4. We must guard our hearts through sound doctrine. 2 Timothy 1:13; Titus 2:1
