Hijacked:
What’s Taking You Captive?

When
You Seem to be Unsatisfied with What You’ve Got
Memory
Verse: James 1:13–15
(NKJV) 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”;
for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone. 14
But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. 15
Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is
full-grown, brings forth death.
