This sermon, the second in a two-part series, examines the prayer life of Jesus Christ as both a model to emulate and a set of commands to obey. The preacher draws from multiple Gospel accounts to paint a comprehensive picture of how the God-man approached prayer — with raw honesty, consistent prioritization, humble submission, persistent intercession for others, and heartfelt worship. The sermon moves between observing what Jesus did in prayer and listening to what He instructed His disciples to do, presenting prayer not as a religious formality but as the very breath of the Christian life. The congregation is called to bring their whole, unpolished selves before God, to submit their wills to His, and to pray with the confidence that God hears each of them by name.
