This verse is a summary of the Christian duty. If we are watchful or discerning in Holy Spirit we can see temptations. It is prayer however that will give us the strength to withstand it so that we will not enter into temptation. In the context of the events following this verse Peter and others were going to be tempted and they needed prayer more than rest!!!
Jesus was experiencing the truth of the words he spoke, however in His care saying, the weakness of the flesh was overmastered by His willing spirit!! What overmasters us? Is it flesh or temptation or are we controlled by the Holy Spirit ??? Let us watch and pray for the time of His second coming is one day closer than it was yesterday!!
