Hey friends, if you were offered all the kingdoms of this world, simply in return for bowing down to the one who gave you those kingdoms.

Would you do it? Would you take that offer? Today we're going to read in Matthew chapter 4,

verses 8 through 10, where Jesus was made

that offer, and he turned it down. This is the morning mindset. We are here to get our minds aligned

with the truth of God's word for this day. And we're doing it in this series we're currently doing

called Kingdom. And we're in episode four of that series. If you'd like to go back a couple of episodes, you can start at the very beginning.

Today we'll be looking at the fact that no other kingdom compares with the kingdom of Jesus

Christ.

Before we get into that, though, I want to invite you to get out your Bibles, get out your

morning mindset journals.

If you don't have a

morning mindset journal, it's just a simple tool to help you follow along and take notes in some

creative ways to help you learn, to help you grow in your faith. You can find a journal by going to

morning mindset media.com slash journal. That link will also be in the description for this episode.

All right, before we dig into Matthew chapter 4, I'm going to invite you to pray with me.

Our Father, as we lean on your word, as we look into this issue of the kingdom of heaven,

we want you to give us insight and direction to know not only what it is,

but what our part in it is. We ask it in Jesus' name. Amen. Okay, friends, Matthew chapter

4, verses 8 through 10. We have a very interesting situation here. Jesus has been driven out into the wilderness by the Holy Spirit. And once in the

wilderness, the devil shows up and the devil begins tempting Jesus. Now at the place we're at,

he's already been tempted twice. And the devil comes with one last temptation and look at the nature of this temptation.

Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world
