How does Jesus provide aid for believers in difficult times?
Answered in 1 source
Jesus provides aid for believers by giving them strength and comfort through His Spirit, reassuring them of His promises.
In times of trial, believers find strength in the assurance that Christ, as our spiritual David, watches over us. Much like Jonathan came to strengthen David while he was in the wilderness (1 Samuel 23:16), the Holy Spirit comes to the aid of believers. He reminds us of God's promises, giving comfort and assurance that we will not perish in our sins and that we will stand before our King, Jesus Christ. This divine support is essential for navigating life's challenges, as it roots our hope firmly in the truth of Christ's accomplished work and His covenant of grace made with us.
