Luke 22:31-46
Jesus said to peter , "Satan has asked to sift you as wheat. But I have prayed for you, Simon , that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strength your brothers."
Before Jesus sent them without purse, bag or sandals, but now they have to bring these even buy sword.
Jesus said what is written about him is reaching its fulfillment.
Pray that you will not fall into temptation.
Jesus prays on the mountain of Olives. Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done. He was being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly.
Jesus real trial takes place among the olives, as he consents to sacrifice his life. Arrest follows swiftly.
Why?
Satan wanted to test the faith of Simon and every Christian, if he is failed will be casted aside like sift wheat.
Anguish are omitted in some texts, on the scribe. The evidence points strongly that way. The word agony/anguish, describing Jesus' horror at facing a God-forsaken death occurs only here in the New Testament.
Physical and Spiritual contest is always exiting within us either. We need the prayer and God's strength to our faith. Sacrifice need the love from the Love, only God and Jesus can help us.
How?
Pray and pray earnest that I will not fall into temptation.
