Strange title isn't it. Sometimes people think that they know how to pray but they don't. They think that it is something to get God to like you with. Or a way to get to heaven.
He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, “O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will.” Matthew 26:39
Jesus prayed truly from his heart and prayed that Gods will would be done not his own.
a spiritual communion with God or an object of worship, as in supplication, thanksgiving, adoration, or confession.
That was the translation for the word prayer. That translation should not have the words or an object of worship! It is a translation for none believers in Christ Jesus!!! The world does not know how to pray!
Father, glorify Your name.” Then a voice came from heaven, saying, “I have both glorified it and will glorify it again.” John 12:28
That was what Jesus prayed for. He prayed to Gods face not for his hand. That is what pastor Dale talked about recently. Praying to Gods hand is asking God to help with something. Praying to Gods face is for the glorification of God. There is a difference.
