READ: Matthew 26:30-47
“O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.” – Matthew 26:39
Gethsemane teaches us the importance of being alone with God. Gethsemane is a place where you can receive life-changing revelations from the Lord. The disciples received life-changing teachings about prayer. Without revelation you will not be different from the people you lead.
Gethsemane teaches us the importance of praying, “Thy will be done” for several hours. Some people do not believe in repeating prayers. If we are to follow the example of Jesus, we will spend hours praying. We will pray, “Thy will be done” for hours and hours on end.
Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.” Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “Could you men not keep watch with me for one hour?” he asked Peter. “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak.” He went away a second time and prayed, “My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, may your will be done.” Matthew 26:39-42, NIV
Gethsemane teaches us the importance of fellowshipping with your most senior friends and associates. Gethsemane is a place where you can have important life-changing discussions with the most important people in your ministry
