Jesus was a man of prayer. Often times when we think about the prayer life of Jesus we think of the disciples coming to sit at Jesus’s feet as students at the feet of the master and asking for some little but of insight into his prayer life. They knew the prayer of Jesus was powerful and effective and so they asked how? Teach us the words! What we sometimes forget is that the prayer Jesus asks his disciples to pray is not in chapter 11 but in chapter 10. The prayer that Jesus asks us to pray is this “God, send forth laborers into your harvest.”
