We all know that prayer was part of Jesus' life.
At each major milestone in his ministry we find him at prayer. How did, Jesus manage to align himself totally with the Father's Will?
How did he handle criticism and conflict so well?
How did his teaching come to be the clearest and deepest that the world has seen?
How could he harness and focus the healing power of God to mend broken lives? We should recognise that prayer isn't a method, but rather a way of life. However some of the details of Jesus' life give us vital pointers to effective prayer. Jesus Made Space: When Jesus wanted to pray, he put some distance, however small, between himself and his everyday distractions. In the pressure of an incredibly busy life, with people's expectations of him mounting to fever pitch, he would frequently and regularly take time to pray. We know from the Gospels that he made time and space for prayer by climbing mountains or by walking the desert. We know that sometimes he got up early to spend time with his heavenly Father. On occasions he would give a whole night to prayer. Always we see him favouring the lonely places and the quiet times. But far from marking Jesus out as an introvert or a recluse. we see that such withdrawal formed a reservoir of spiritual refreshment. In prayer he basked in the Father's love. He asked for, and received, the wisdom and insight he needed. He recharged his spiritual batteries, returning to his task with renewed mental alertness and physical vigour. This should be a pattern for our prayer, whether in the quiet, or the hustle and bustle of our living. Remembering that prayer does not change God's mind, it changes us.

According to Christian beliefs, Jesus, who is both fully human and fully divine, prayed during his earthly ministry. As our intercessor, Jesus continues to intercede for us before God the Father. However, it is not explicitly stated in The Bible whether Jesus prays to the Father on our behalf in the present moment, as he has fulfilled his mission on earth and has ascended to heaven. Nonetheless, Christians believe that Jesus is still actively involved in advocating for and interceding on behalf of his followers.
Jesus is still loved today for several reasons. First, his teachings of love, compassion, and forgiveness resonate with many people. Second, his life and sacrifice serve as an inspiration and example of selflessness. Lastly, Jesus is seen by many as a source of hope, comfort, and guidance in times of struggle and uncertainty.
In the bible the word STILL is used when Jesus tells the storm to be still.
It is the usage of the zero symbol that is still essential in mathematics even today.
Yes, Lord Jesus Christ Is Still Alive! He is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. Man may change but He never changes. His unconditional love towards us too never changes. Jesus Christ is still alive because He was crucified BUT rose from the dead on the third day. No other religious leader rose from the dead!If we have faith on Him we can experience His miracles, healing and goodness as He was here when on earth. This has been my personal experience and I have the real joy and peace ( of mind) all because He is still alive.
Rene Descartes 1596-1650, a Frenchman who spent most of his living days in the former Dutch Republic. Descartes who is also known as the Father of Modern Philosophy due to much of his work still heavily influencing philosophy today.
First of al Jesus is not a prophet.
Jesus loved and still loves many things: his friends on earth eg. Lazarus, his earthly mother and father, his father God in Heaven. And today Jesus still loves all the people of the earth including the Romans who crucified him, the people who mock him, those who don't know anything about him, those who wonder who he is and those who have invited him to be their God. To say it simply, Jesus loves everyone!
well because he is our father
People can still be healed today by God through our faith in Jesus and our prayers.
Oh yes Jesus is still doing miracles, but today there are middle men doing it in the name and power of Jesus.
jesus
Jesus is alive, sitting on his throne on the right hand of God the Father.
Everything that Jesus did or said has affected the entire world forever.
Buddha is still important today to Buddhist because they still have respect for this guy like Christians we still believe in Jesus but he is dead but not dead in our spiritual life's
Sadly today it means very few in today's times, only about 95% of the people today still believe. But the other 5% are still believers and worship God.
God's laws are still in place. Jesus just allowed for a person to be forgiven.
In the Bible it says that that Jesus is God. He is three in one. Father, Son, Holy Spirit. So, yes he is the Messiah and Jesus is God!
