Jesus Himself dealt with temptations, and He will empower us to move on pass them to. Jesus was led out into the desert to be tempted by Satan with the destiny of His creation and humanity at stake, and during this time, He fasted and remained true and loyal to who He was and to His coming mission. Satan pulled out all of his efforts and abilities in a futile attempt to convince Jesus to serve him, and in so doing, he promised Jesus greater honor and glory faster by having more control but the problem with that reasoning is that Jesus was already fully God, thus had total sovereignty, glory, and control. Satan based his attack on what he thought would be Jesus' greatest weakness, His humanity. However, Satan failed, as Christ, using His humanity and not His divinity as an identification and model for us, defeated Satan's attack through Scripture, the Spirit, prayer, and obedience.
On today's talk-cast Elder sits down with Jason R, a former satanist about his journey of coming to believe in Jesus Christ as His Savior, and Lord, and his transformation to becoming a born again blood washed follower.

The road to recovery is the renewal of our minds! Just focus and use the determination Jesus gives you to turn your life over to Christ as Savior and Lord! Ask God to humble you and renew you so you do not continue on with any bad patterns or go back to your old habits, and bad ways. This is a continual process but as long as there is a hint of a bad desire in you (and there will always be), you must center yourself in Christ.
