Genesis 2:15-17; 3:1-7
Psalm 32
Romans 5:12-19
Matthew 4:1-11
The first Sunday in Lent traditionally assigns the temptation of Jesus as the Gospel reading. Immediately after Jesus' Baptism, the Holy Spirit drives Jesus into the desert to fast and pray. Satan seeks to turn Jesus away from God's desires and turn inward, glorifying himself at the cost of destroying the Father's intentions for the great reconciliation of relationships broken by sin.
