Again, for the second time, He went away and prayed, My Father, if this cannot pass unless I drink it, Your 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 for the third time, saying the same words again. Matt 26:42 ESV
Jesus on the night that He was betrayed was troubled in His spirit and He went to the garden of Gethsemane to pray. He went back three times and kept praying, saying the same words again. There is a time to pray in faith and stand on it, but here we see that Jesus Himself went back and prayed the same words again when He was troubled and sorrowful. He prayed until He had the peace to face the trial that was coming.
I often pray while driving down the road, but real peace comes to me when my face is on the carpet pouring my heart out to God. Pray hard, get real, get serious, it is life changing. Submit your life to Gods plan with My Father, Your will be done. I have seen impossible situations change overnight through intense prayer, but you have got to be desperate. You have got to want it.
Today if you are facing something that will not leave you alone, and you are troubled, anxious and sorrowful. Find a quiet place alone and spend time praying and sitting in the Lords presence until the peace comes. When it does, you can face anything.
