How do we know that Jesus can help us in our time of need?
Answered in 1 source
We know Jesus can help us because Scripture reveals Him as our compassionate High Priest who offers mercy and grace (Hebrews 4:14-16).
Jesus is identified as our High Priest in Hebrews 4:14, which assures us that He understands our weaknesses and supports us in our struggles. The narrative of individuals like the leper, the blind man, and the woman with the issue of blood illustrates His willingness and power to heal and save. Each of these stories reflects a personal encounter with Christ, culminating in the recipients' needs being met as they came to Him in faith. Therefore, Scripture consistently demonstrates that Jesus is attentive to our cries for help and is more than able to provide assistance and healing in times of distress.
