Analyze the given bible passages about the importance of prayer in the Jesus earthly ministry and relate it to your personal faith experiences.


The night before Jesus chose the twelve men who would be His apostles, He spent the entire night on a mountainside praying to the Father. He sought the wisdom and guidance of God first. I cringe to think about how often I’ve made big decisions without first taking enough time to seek God’s will and direction.

5-6. As Jesus taught and ministered and performed miracles, “the news about

Him spread all the more, so that crowds of people came to hear Him” and be healed. Many of us might begin to think we were pretty great. Oh, Jesus knew who He was.

This passage tells us, “Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.

7-8. “He went up on a mountainside by Himself to pray.” Why then? Soaring on great spiritual highs like this opens the door for many potential crashes. Most of us have been there. Pride from our hand in the event. Disappointment when the “high” begins to level off. Perhaps Jesus recognized the need to stay grounded in order to keep moving ahead. But we should follow His example and go straight to God in the afterglow of a spiritual high.

9-10. The night Jesus was betrayed and arrested He spent intensive time of prayer

in the Garden. He even asked His closet friends to pray with Him. He knew the hours ahead would not be easy. He knew the pain would be great. So He went to the Father. He poured out all His emotions. He asked for what He wanted. Yet He submitted to the will of the Father. And the Father strengthened Him for the task ahead.
