Prayer Spree (4)

Prayer Spree (4)
"Now it came to pass in those days that He went out to the mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God" (Luke 6:12)
Jesus exemplified a virile prayer life by the premium He placed on prayer. And this he had done so that we also can follow in His steps.
He who says he abides in Christ ought himself also to pray just as He prayed - (1John2:6 paraphrased).
How did He pray?
Among other attributes...
He prayed for long hours (Luke 6:12)
He Prayed without ceasing (Luke 22:39)
He prayed in solitude (Mark 1:35)
He tarried in prayer despite body weakness and anguish of the soul (Mark 14:34,38)
Until you be like Him in prayer, becoming like Him in conduct might Just remain as mirage.
