Matthew 26
[36]Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane, and He told His disciples, Sit down here while I go over yonder and pray.
Now it is of very great mind reminder that every believer should learn how to pray, even Jesus Christ decided to go Gethsemane.So it is a disaster if you don't know how to pray,Matthew 26:37-38
[37]And taking with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, He began to show grief and distress of mind and was deeply depressed.
[38]Then He said to them, My soul is very sad and deeply grieved, so that I am almost dying of sorrow. Stay here and keep awake and keep watch with Me.
Now, there is another fact that , it probably a normal thing to b sad, it not too bad to be passing through life challengesYes, Jesus Christ is passing through the same here, he was sad, remorseful, unhappy, life challenges,He was to face the pain on the cross, so whT are you also passing through, sad, y can't you pray, pray, and make it a thing of the pass
Matthew 26:39-45
[39]And going a little farther, He threw Himself upon the ground on His face and prayed saying, My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from Me; nevertheless, not what I will [not what I desire], but as You will and desire.
[40]And He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and He said to Peter, What! Are you so utterly unable to stay awake and keep watch with Me for one hour?
[41]All of you must keep awake (give strict attention, be cautious and active) and watch and pray, that you may not come into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
[42]Again a second time He went away and prayed, My Father, if this cannot pass by unless I drink it, Your will be done.
[43]And again He came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were weighed down with sleep.
[44]So, leaving them again, He went away and prayed for the third time, using the same words.
[45]Then He returned to the disciples and said to them, Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of especially wicked sinners [whose way or nature it is to act in opposition to God].
Hello, listen this is where am.going, Jesus went to pray in the night, an indication that the night is not for sleeping but mainly for prayers.
Jesus said, watch and pray, ur enemy Re not sleeping, they are spyin on u, and are looking for means to bring u down, either spiritually or physically, so wen you let down your guide, you give it a chance to penetrate and harm.you
So therefore, the midnight Is a time, we finish the day business. Listen my people. If you want to shine, you must first light it in the dark, at midnight. If you want to shine in the day like the sun, you must first stress the midnight by praying, singing,Jesus met them sleeping, he went back the second time becos they lack purpose. So which means if you don't know why you are praying. Devil will give you work to do, becos you are idle. So pray with a purpose, pray with a plan. Your plan is why are you praying . what do you need. Jesus was grief cos of the death on the cross. So what Re you also doing that you can not settle with prayers.
Listen, don't you notice that the more people you tell your challenges, the more they sympathised with you. They will feel sorry but that is not the solution to failure. Stand up.upon you fears and face it in prayers. Don't give the devil a chance. Block all entrance to spiritual life . and make your life available in the place o prayer.
The great things of life is meant for those who can pray. Even if it is 30 minutes. Pray. Pray without ceasing , if you will lock yourself up , lock yourself up. And don't leave the place of prayer, not until something happenThe great things of life is meant for those who can pray. Even if it is 30 minutes. Pray. Pray without ceasing , if you will lock yourself up , lock yourself up. And don't leave the place of prayer, not until something happen
Jesus had to pray the same pray 3 times. 3 times, 3 good times. The same prayers the means you pray until something happen, you pray till you die, Jesus was dieing and still praying. So I have decided to pray till.I die and not wen am comfortable, even when am.not comfortable am still praying. This generation is becoming cruel, more and more, and if you don't choose a side noe, u might go with the tide of this life.
