Man does not only live by what he eats, man also lives by where it came from.

Dr. Tony Evans reminds us that true life flows only from God.

I'd rather have no earthly satisfaction without, as long as I have heavenly satisfaction within.

Give me the will of God. This is the alternative broadcast

featuring the timeless biblical teachings from the archives of Dr. Tony Evans.

If you feel powerless to resist temptation, Dr. Evans says you might be searching for your

overcoming power in the wrong places.

Today, he explains how to tap into the victory Christ has already secured for you.

Let's join him now as he opens with this story.

One day, a woman brought a very, very, very expensive dress.

Well, she brought it home home and her husband found out how much she spent on it,

he said, why in the world would you buy that expensive a dress you know we can't afford it?

The woman looked at her husband and said but honey you don't understand the devil made me do it she said I tried it on and the devil said to

say I tried it on and the devil said to me, you look awesome, girlfriend, in that dress.

That's you all over.

You've got to have that dress.

Do what your husband said.

Then why didn't you tell the devil, get thee behind me, Satan?

She said, I did tell the devil, get thee behind me Satan.

And he went behind me and told me I look good there too.

That humorous story is designed to raise the issue of victory over the evil one.

Fundamentally, that is an issue of power.
