III. Jesus’ Prayer Life

Matt. 14:19: Then he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass; and taking the five loaves and the two fish he looked up to heaven, and blessed [eulogeo], and broke and gave the loaves to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds.

Matt. 14:23: And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray [proseuchomai]. When evening came, he was there alone. [Mr. 6:45]

Matt. 15:36: He took the seven loaves and the fish, and having given thanks [eucharisteo] he broke them and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds. [Mark 8:6; John 6:11, 23]

Matt. 19:13: Then children were brought to him that he might lay his hands on them and pray [proseuchomai]. The disciples rebuked the people.

Matt. 26:26-27: Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed [eulogeo], and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, "Take, eat; this is my body." And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks [eucharisteo] he gave it to them, saying, "Drink of it, all of you.” [Mark 14:23; Luke 22:17,19]

Matt. 26:36-44: Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples, "Sit here, while I go yonder and pray [proseuchomai]." And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful and troubled. Then he said to them, "My soul is very sorrowful, even to death; remain here, and watch with me." And going a little farther he fell on his face and prayed [proseuchomai], "My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt." And he came to the disciples and found them sleeping; and he said to Peter, "So, could you not watch with me one hour? Watch and pray [proseuchomai] that you may not enter into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." Again, for the second time, he went away and prayed [proseuchomai], "My Father, if this cannot pass unless I drink it, thy will be done." And again he came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy. So, leaving them again, he went away and prayed [proseuchomai] for the third time, saying the same words. [Mark 14:32-40; Luke 22:40-46].

Matt. 26:53: Do you think that I cannot appeal to [pray to; parakaleo] my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels?

Luke 9:28-29: Now about eight days after these sayings he took with him Peter and John and James, and went up on the mountain to pray [proseuchomai]. And as he was praying [proseuchomai], the appearance of his countenance was altered, and his raiment became dazzling white.
