Do You Know That Jesus Never Prayed With The Disciples? Here Is Why With Biblical References
Every good and devoted Christians read their Bible at least once a day, only such a believer would be given access to some kind of revelations. These revelations are not for them to brag or raise shoulders, but to help other Christians shed light on some matters of life.
While Christ was carrying out his ministry in earth, he never one day went on a prayer meeting with the disciples, not even for once and even at that, his disciples never asked to pray with him.
Have you not wondered why Jesus never prayed with the disciples? Have you not asked yourself why and also why then did the Bible ask us not to forsake the gathering of the brethren.
That is to say, we should always be together, worshiping, praising and praying together. This is what God wants for us, now let me out it straight to you why Jesus never prayed with the disciples.
Jesus is a God in human form, the prayer of God is far different from that of a normal Christian. We Christians pray prayers of petitions, God never asks for anything, instead he gives, so God's kind of prayers are intercessory prayers.
God interceeds for man, he never ask from man. Man asks from God, they rarely interceed for their fellow man, this is a simple logic to get.
While Christ was on earth, he was still a good and therefore he never prayed prayers of petitions, especially when he goes up to the mountains to pray, he prays prayers of IINTERCESSION, what disciples would not pray at that particular time.
In the synoptic scriptures where the whole story of Jesus was written, from Matthew down to Mark, Luke, and John, there was no place where Christ went to the mountain to pray with the disciples.
The only time Jesus asked Peter, James and John to follow him to the mountain, he still did not pray with them, he rather asked them to seat at a place and tarry while he goes yonder to pray. He knew they would only pray prayers of petitions and not intercessions.
Here's is what happened in the book of Matthew Chapter 26:36-40;
"36Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder. 37And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy. 38Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me. 39And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt."
The difference between the prayers of God and man is that, God only prays prayers of intercession, he intwrceeds for our sake while we on the other hand, rarely interceed, all we do is prayers of petitions, God give me this and God give me that.
This is a message to all Christians out there, let's begin to interceed for ourselves and our families, these are the kind of God prayers and would be answered with speed.
Do not ask from God always, sometimes, bless him, bless his name, callbhm sweet names and interceed for your loved ones, interceed for your state and leaders, interceed for your country Nigeria.
Learn to pray the kind of God's prayers, prayers of intercessions and not always prayers of petitions.
You will also notice that, in all of his pictures, all drawn and painted replica where he was praying, he was always alsone.
