Today we read Hebrews 2. Jesus, as true man, willingly humbled Himself to taste death. As resurrected Lord, and as our firstborn Brother (verse 11), He serves as our High Priest to intercede for us before the Father. Without a Savior, we would live in slavery to the fear of death. But Jesus has taken the consequence of our sin and removes our fear. Knowing our weaknesses, He will always help us when we are tempted. • Lord Jesus, You know my weakness. Help me always to turn away from sin and to put all my trust in You. Amen.
