Daily Devotions: Four Stages of Temptation - January 2, 2026

Genesis 3:1–19 ESV “Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, ‘Did God actually say, “You shall not eat of any tree in the garden”?’… To the man he said, ‘Because you listened to your wife and ate of the tree about which I commanded you, “You shall not eat of it,” cursed is the ground because of you; in pain you shall eat of it all the days of your life.’” In this episode of Daily Devotions, Pastor David Sumrall explores the stages of temptation and the consequences of sin. Temptation begins with a question, challenges God’s truth, and attacks His character. Sin moves from desire to action and even seeks to recruit others. The result is a hard life, as seen in the story of Adam and Eve.
