The Great Escape - Dr. Anita Phillips

About this sermon

Jesus never promised us a life without problems. We all face temptations, but God provides a way of escape. Dr. Anita Phillips sheds revelatory light on our victory over temptation, examining 1 Corinthians 10 and Jesus’ own battle against the enemy’s attacks in the wilderness. Are we paying attention to the methods of deliverance He lays in front of us? In a world of so many distractions and pressures, being aware of our escape routes is essential. God wants us to be prepared before the test, temptation, and trial show up. We are in relationship with a Savior who knows what it is to be human, feel pain, and suffer. He understands everything you’re going through. He’s not angry with you because you’re dealing with temptation. Instead, He gives you grace to find a way out of your failures. For those of us overwhelmed by feelings of guilt or inadequacy, Dr. Phillips provides four areas of temptation we all struggle with, along with four ways the Lord provides to free us. When you discover God’s doors of escape, the light will shine and uncover your triggers, as well as the enemy’s tricks. Get ready to discover a life of freedom you’ve never known!
