0:00.0	Our great example and instructor in prayer is the Lord Jesus Christ.
0:13.0	In God's Word, we find everything we need to develop a life of prayer.
0:18.0	Join Scott Pauli today as we study the Bible together.
0:27.4	Lord, teach us to pray. That was the prayer of the early disciples, and I think a good prayer
0:34.4	for all of us to pray. Well, Jesus answered that request. He instructed his
0:40.2	disciples in prayer and he illustrated what real prayer looks like. As a matter of fact, no one really
0:47.7	is the example in prayer that they ought to be. The only perfect example of anything, including

1:47.0	Because it does a couple things for me number one it reminds me that Jesus is praying for me. I'll show you that in just a moment and number two
1:55.0	It reminds me that the answer in the hardest hours of life is to enter into the presence of God and pray yourself.
