”The War of Gethsemane,” Mark 14:32-42

Hear Pastor Larry bring a sermon on the importance of praying and how praying is warfare. 

The war we fight begins on "bended knee." 

Mar 14:32  And they went to a place called Gethsemane. And he said to his disciples, "Sit here while I pray."
Mar 14:33  And he took with him Peter and James and John, and began to be greatly distressed and troubled. 
Mar 14:34  And he said to them, "My soul is very sorrowful, even to death. Remain here and watch."
Mar 14:35  And going a little farther, he fell on the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him. 
Mar 14:36  And he said, "Abba, Father, all things are possible for you. Remove this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will."
Mar 14:37  And he came and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter, "Simon, are you asleep? Could you not watch one hour?
Mar 14:38  Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."
Mar 14:39  And again he went away and prayed, saying the same words. 
Mar 14:40  And again he came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy, and they did not know what to answer him. 
Mar 14:41  And he came the third time and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? It is enough; the hour has come. The Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
Mar 14:42  Rise, let us be going; see, my betrayer is at hand."
