A Deeper Look At Our Prayerful Savior | Part 1

In this lesson titled: A Deeper Look At Our Prayerful Savior | Part 1 ... I discussed the important Bible topic of prayer. One quality that every faithful Christian must possess and work at developing is the quality of being prayerful. Prayer is so powerful... Important... And truly... Essential in the lives of all Christians... And yet... We... As Christians... Sometimes... Fail to make the proper use of prayer as we ought to! Sometimes... Christians undervalue prayer! Perhaps... This is because some Christians do not fully grasp the significance and power of prayer!

Here is an important question to consider... What is prayer? The original Greek word for "prayer" can mean "an entreaty" ... "Petition" ... Or... "Request." Someone once wisely noted that prayer is the sincere desire of the heart expressed in words to God. Someone once said these wise words... "The Bible is God's way of talking to us; prayer is our way of talking to God."

In this lesson... I focused on the prayer life of Jesus. When we open up, read, and study the Bible... And when we specifically look to the example of Jesus... There is so much to learn about prayer! Jesus said many things about prayer. Luke 18:1 says, "Then He spoke a parable to them, that men always ought to pray and not lose heart." Jesus taught on the nature of prayer... And the aim of prayer... Or... In other words... Why His followers ought to pray. He also taught His followers the method of prayer... Or... In other words... The manner in which they ought to approach God in prayer. When God's people approach Him through the avenue of prayer... They must do so with reverence!

This lesson has four main sections in it. In them... I read and discussed many prayers that Jesus offered to God.

In the first main section... I read and discussed some prayers that Jesus offered at some of the great events of His life.

In the second main section... I read and discussed some prayers that Jesus offered during the course of His ministry.

In the third main section... I read and discussed some prayers that Jesus offered at or around the time of the miracles that He performed!

In the fourth main section... I read and discussed some prayers that Jesus offered for others.

Brethren... If we truly believe in the power of prayer... Then we will be prayerful people like our prayerful Savior!

This lesson may challenge what you currently believe... And that is okay! I do not want you nor anyone to take my words as the final authority... Because they are not the final authority!

God's word is the ultimate and final authority on all spiritual matters! I only want you and others to accept the words that I have spoken in this lesson if they line up with what the Bible teaches.

I invite you to put the words that I have spoken in this lesson to the test... Go and search the Scriptures for yourself... And see if what I have said is true. Always check and make sure that what I teach and what anyone else teaches lines up with what the Bible teaches!

Be like the noble Bereans who "received the word with all readiness, and searched the Scriptures daily to find out whether these things were so" (Acts 17:11). In 1 Thessalonians 5:21... Paul said, "Test all things; hold fast what is good."
