Sometimes we can be overawed or intimidated by the glory and power of God and feel inadequate or unworthy of him as we walk our walk upon this earth. It is important for us to realize that Jesus gave up the advantages and privileges of heaven and came to earth as a man, with flesh and blood (Phil 2:5-8). He had to be filled with the power of the Holy Spirit to minister on this earth just like you and I have to be (Matt 3:13-17). 

In Hebrews chapter 4, and verse 15, we are told that Jesus can identify with us as he was tempted in all the same ways we are, while he was on this earth, but he did no sin. Do you get the picture? Jesus came here as a man with flesh and blood and walked in our shoes just like us. He knows our state, our weaknesses and temptations, our trials and tribulations; He dealt with the same things while he was here. He knows where we are at and yet the word still says: “we can do all things through Christ who strengthens us” (Phil 4:13). 

Nothing is impossible if we have Jesus inside us. Be encouraged today, Jesus will never leave you or forsake you (Heb 13:5).
