ISB ~ Mark 14 v38

into temptation:Prayer and watchfulness are necessary to withstand the attacks of Satan (Col 4:2; 1 Pet 5:8-10). Jesus here refers to man’s inner struggle, where the flesh, wounded by sin, is constantly at war with the spirit (Rom 8:1214; Gal 5:19-24). The graces we need to overcome our weaknesses must be sought through persistent prayer (1 Thess 5:17; Heb 4:16). Although the power of the Holy Spirit enables us to live victoriously, the struggle is not minimized or made easy. God’s ready assistance during temptation is also the subject of the final petition of the Lord’s Prayer (Mt 6:13; Lk 11:4; CCC 2849).
