Summary
You don’t get to choose your wilderness, but you do get to choose how you fight in it.
In “The Rumble in the Jungle,” Pastor Don Johnson shows us that the battles we face aren’t signs of weakness — they’re signs of promotion.
Just like a boxer enters the ring focused on victory, Matthew 4 reveals Jesus stepped into the wilderness already equipped, already affirmed, and already undefeated.
The space between who you are and who you are becoming is a fight. The good news of the Gospel is that Jesus has already secured your victory!
Let this timely message show you:
• Why God leads you into uncomfortable places
• How to discern real opportunities from traps
• How to resist shortcuts that sabotage identity
• Why your anointing attracts attacks
• How to fight back with the Word
If you’re weary, vulnerable, or under pressure, this is your reminder: You have already won. Now fight like it.
Message: “The Rumble in the Jungle”
Scripture: Matthew 4:1-11 (NIV)
Speaker: Pastor Don Johnson
