Col 2:8–10, Hebrews 4:15

2:8
Be careful not to allow anyone to captivate you through an empty,
deceitful philosophy that is according to human traditions and the
elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ.
9
For in him all the fullness of deity lives in bodily form,
10
and you have been filled in him, who is the head over every ruler and
authority.

4:15
For we do not have a high priest incapable of sympathising with our
weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in every way just as we are, yet
without sin.

 

One thought:

It’s different talking to someone who has shared the same experience with you

 

Three questions:

What would have been some of the temptations Jesus faced?

Do you feel that Jesus can relate to your life experience?

Approach the throne of grace today in prayer and confession – bring to God your temptations and ask for His help.

Prayer:

Give thanks for Jesus who was fully God and truly human and that He can relate to us in every way. Confess your temptations and sins. Ask God to help you and others trust that your sins are forgiven and that in Christ you can resist temptation.
