YOUNG P E O P L E AND A D U L T T O P IC— W h a t J e s u s T a u g h t by P ra y e r. I. Jesus P ra y in g in a S o lit a r y Place (Mark 1:35). After a series of most strenuous ef forts Jesus retired to a lonely place to pray. He who the day before had shown His mighty power In casting out devils and banishing disease now needed to be alone with God. In or der to do this He arose a long time before daylight. The very best time to pray is in the morning when our physical powers have been renewed. If the Son of God needed this time for prayer, this renewal of spiritual strength in communion with the Heavenly Father, how much more should we seek help by retiring to the solitary place. II . Jesus P r a y in g in G et hs emane (Mark 14:32-42) In this time of crisis He took with him Peter, Janies and John. 1. The first prayer (vv. 35-38). (1) His posture (v. 35). He fell on his face prostrate on the ground. In the hour of great need we naturally prostrate ourselves before God. (2) His petition (v. 30). “Take away this cup from me.” By the cup Is meant His death on the cross. No doubt it was most grievous for Him to face this shame, but He pressed on, knowing that for this cause He had come into the world (John 12:27, 28, cf. Heb. 2:14). (3) His resignation (v. 30). His will was in subjection to the Father. He knew that His death on the cross was the will of God, the Father, for He was the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world. (4) The disciples rebuked (v. 37). He singled out Peter since he had been the most conspicuous in pro claiming his loyalty (John 13:38). (5) Extortatlon to the disciples (v. 38). "W atch and pray lest ye enter Into tem ptation.” The only way to be able to stand in the time of trial Is to be watching and praying. 2. The second prayer (vv. 39, 40). He withdrew the second time from the disciples and uttered the same words in prayer. This was not vain repetition. It is proper to repeat our requests. He found the disciples asleep again. Their shame and con fusion were more marked than nt first. 3. The third prayer (vv. 41, 42). He uttered the same words in the third prayer (Matt. 26:44). fte tells the disciples to sleep on and take their rest as the hour had now come for His betrayal. There Is such a thing as being asleep when wanted and awakening when it is too late. If the disciples had been pray ing they would not have fallen asleep. I I I . Jesus Giv in g a Model P r a y e r (M att. 6:9-13). This model was given in response to the disciples' request that the Lord would teach them tiow to pray (Luke 11:10). It Is not therefore the Lord's prayer, but the model prayer for the disciples. It Involves: 1. A right relationship (v. 9). “Our Futher.” Only those who be come children of God hy faith ill Jesus Christ (Gal. 3:26) can pray aright. One must he a child of God before he can be in communion with God. 2. A right attitude (v v. 9, 10). “Hallowed be Thy name.” When one realizes that he has been deliv ered from the power of darkness and translated Into the kingdom of His Son (Col. 1 :13) by being made a child of God. he cannot help pouring out his soul In gratitude and praise. In tensely longing for the kingdom, the righteous rule of Christ to come on the earth. 3. A right spirit (vv. 11-13). (1) That of trust which looks to God for the supply of dally bread. We are dependent upon Him for our dally food. With all man's boasted progress ha cannot make a harvest. The m ar vels of modern chemistry are Insuffi cient for this. (2) That of love which results In forgiveness of others. God will not listen to the prayer of one who has an unforgiving spirit. (3) That of holiness which moves one to pray not to be led Into tem pta tion and longa to be delivered from the evil one. “Soiled" Language The language of some men Is so “soiled” that It seems a proof that they were formed of the soil.—K ings Business.
