Power to Resist Temptation
HEBREWS 2:17-18 (NASB)
17 Therefore, He (Jesus) had to be made like His brethren in all things, so that He might become a merciful and faithful high priest in things pertaining to God, to make propitiation for the sins of the people.
18 For since He Himself was tempted in that which He has suffered, He is able to come to the aid of those who are tempted.
++++++++++++++++++++
Jesus was tempted in all things like us (Hebrews 4:15). So He understands temptation!
Temptations are part of life. Victory over temptations is available through Jesus. He understands because He has been there!
So, trust Him, and ask for all the help you need to resist any temptation!
