The night before Jesus shed His blood on the Cross, He went "
farther" into prayer with God His Father.
Three of His buddies were in the garden with Him. They were to "watch" with Him...to pray with Him..however, they ended up snoring the night away.
Jesus went farther
Matthew 26:39 says of Jesus, "
Going a little farther, He (Jesus) fell with His face to the ground and prayed..."In other words, He was praying His guts out...His life depended on these prayers. Our life depended on these prayers of Jesus Christ. He "
went a little farther"...
Will you go farther?
My prayer during this Lent season for all of those involved in Fusion ministry is this: that you all will "
go farther" with Jesus in prayer, fasting, and bible study; in loving and forgiving; in worshiping and feeding the hungry; in obeying God and resting in His presence.
As far as the Cross
Where did the footsteps of Jesus ultimately take Him as He walked a "
little farther"?
They took Him to the Cross. God, I pray for those reading this:
take them to the Cross of Christ as they get ready for Easter Sunday (the Resurrection of Jesus).Check out this video:
