PRAYING IN THE GARDEN OF GETHSEMANE III

1. Sometimes, we feel alone in life.

2. The Lord Jesus felt that too.

a. The Multitudes were not there.
b. The Disciples were tired out.
c. Great suffering lay ahead.

BUT WE ARE NOT ALONE

“Then an angel appeared to Him from heaven, strengthening Him.”

Luke 22:43

1. An angel appeared to Him.

2. God had sent an angel to encourage the Lord Jesus.

3. What an angelic presence means:

a. Angels behold the Father’s face (Matthew 18:10).
They represent the Lord in all His power.
b. They excel in strength (Psalm 103:20).
They are truly mighty.
c. They are sent to minister to us (Hebrews 1:14).
They are sent by God to help us.
d. We may not see angels.
But they guard us. We need not feel alone!

PRAYING EARNESTLY

“And being in agony, He prayed more earnestly. Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.”

Luke 22:44

1. The Agony of the Lord Jesus.

a. There were battles to fight:
i. In His heart.
ii. In His mind.
iii. Against the darkness and evil of Satan, exerting great pressure.
b. Hence, agony was felt!

2. How did the Lord Jesus cope?

a. He prayed even more earnestly.
b. He was not going to give up.
c. He exercised great faith in God His Father.

3. “Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground”

a. This was a moving description of the intensity of His effort to pray.
b. He perspired profusely.
c. It was as if He was shedding drops of blood.

经文:路加福音 22:43-44

在客西马尼园的祷告(三)

1. 我们在生活中,有时候会觉得孤单

2. 主耶稣也感受到这种孤单

a. 众人不在那里

b. 门徒们累得在睡觉安歇

c. 极大的苦难就在当前

但我们并不孤单

“有一位天使从天上显现,加添他的力量。”

《路加福音 22:43》

1. 天使向祂显现

2. 上帝派遣天使来鼓励主耶稣

3. 这天使的同在也表示:

a. 天使常见天父的面《马太福音 18:10》

他们代表上帝所有的能量

b. 他们有及其大能《诗篇 103:20》

他们确实强大

c. 他们被派遣来为我们效力服役《希伯来书 1:14》

他们奉上帝差遣来帮助我们

d. 我们看不见天使

但他们保护着我们。我们无需感到孤单!

恳切地祷告

“耶稣极其伤痛,祷告更加恳切,汗珠如大血点滴在地上。”

《路加福音 22:44》

1. 主耶稣的伤痛

a. 许多的挣扎

i. 在内心里

ii. 在脑海里

iii. 抵抗撒旦的黑暗与邪恶的压迫

b. 因此祂感到极其伤痛!

2. 主耶稣怎么应付伤痛?

b. 祂绝不会放弃

c. 祂在上帝天父里运行更大的信心
