How did Jesus cope with his assignment to come from a glorified existence in Heaven to this dark, broken, Satan-dominated world?

And what power was he able to use as the Son of God, yet as the Son of Man living in a flesh body?

When his enemies criticized him for healing a man on the Sabbath, he said, “Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does." (John 5:19 NIV)

And when they wanted to kill him, he said, "By myself I can do nothing; I judge only as I hear, and my judgment is just, for I seek not to please myself but him who sent me." (John 5:30)

When Jesus walked this earth, he had emptied himself of his Divine glory and walked as a man. (Philippians 2:5-11)

So how did he do it? How could he do so much while being limited by his humanity? By the aid and working of the Holy Spirit.
