Luke 22:41-42 KJV — And he was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.
Jesus already knew the will of His Father. All through the four gospels, He expressed and explained His purpose, His reason for being to those close to Him. (LUKE 18:31-33).
Jesus wasn’t praying because of what He didn’t know.
Jesus prayed in order to share how He felt to His heavenly Father.
An insight about prayer is that it’s an opportunity for you to spend time chatting with the Lord and sharing what’s in your heart.
Prayer is powerful. Prayer is transformational. And on this side of the resurrection, prayer is simply spending time with the Lord, sharing what’s in your heart.
You’re not praying to inform God. You’re praying to be transformed by the event and daily habit of talking to the Lord.
