The Prayers Jesus Prayed
A message from the series "The Prayers Jesus Prayed G." The description of 'The Meeting Place' in Exodus is a powerful picture of the essence of prayer. Each time the Isralites set up camp they erected a special tent - beyond the camp - where people could go to pray. Moses used this. Joshua, Son of Nun, the future leader of Israel, spent all his time here - a wonderful place for his training to take place! Ultmately, all of Israel was invited to use this tent. In many ways this is a picture of the purpose of the Psalms - to teach and train us to be a people of prayer. Psalm 27 invites us to 'wait' on the Lord. Matthew 6:5-13 sees Jesus teaching on prayer - especially on finding an 'inner room' - which is not so far from Moses' 'Tent of Meeting'. Psalm 27/Exodus 33:7-11

CloseLife does not always go as we plan. Painful experieces such as loss, grief, and rejection come and go. In Psalm 88 - one of a few 'unresolved' or unanswered prayers in the Psalms, the prayer calls out to God wondering where God is. Will God's anger remain forever? Will this pain ever end? In this Psalm thew pain does not draw the paryer away - but causes a search for the God who seems so absent. Psalm 88
