In the days of His humanity, He offered up both prayers and pleas with loud crying and tears to the One able to save Him from death, and He was heard because of His devout behavior.

And He went a little beyond them, and fell on His face and prayed, saying,“ My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; yet not as I will, but as You will.”And He* came to the disciples and* found them sleeping, and He* said to Peter,“ So, you men could not keep watch with Me for one hour?Keep watching and praying, so that you do not come into temptation; the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”He went away again a second time and prayed, saying,“ My Father, if this cup cannot pass away unless I drink from it, Your will be done.”Again He came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.And He left them again, and went away and prayed a third time, saying the same thing once more.

David therefore pleaded with God for the child; and David fasted and went and lay all night on the ground.The elders of his household stood beside him in order to help him up from the ground, but he was unwilling and would not eat food with them.Then it happened on the seventh day that the child died. And David’s servants were afraid to tell him that the child was dead, for they said,“ Behold, while the child was still alive, we spoke to him and he did not listen to us. How then can we tell him that the child is dead, since he might do himself harm?”

In the day of my trouble I sought the Lord; In the night my hand was stretched out and did not grow weary; My soul refused to be comforted.When I remember God, then I am restless; When I sigh, then my spirit feels weak. SelahYou have held my eyelids open; I am so troubled that I cannot speak.I have considered the days of old, The years of long ago.I will remember my song in the night; I will meditate with my heart, And my spirit ponders:Will the Lord reject forever? And will He never be favorable again?Has His favor ceased forever? Has His promise come to an end forever?Has God forgotten to be gracious, Or has He in anger withdrawn His compassion? SelahThen I said,“ It is my grief, That the right hand of the Most High has changed.”I shall remember the deeds of the Lord; I will certainly remember Your wonders of old.

“ I regret that I have made Saul king, because he has turned back from following Me and has not carried out My commands.” And Samuel was furious and cried out to the Lord all night.

“ I also pleaded with the Lord at that time, saying,‘ Lord God, You have begun to show Your servant Your greatness and Your strong hand; for what god is there in heaven or on earth who can do such works and mighty acts as Yours?Please let me cross over and see the good land that is beyond the Jordan, that good hill country, and Lebanon.’But the Lord was angry with me on your account, and would not listen to me; instead, the Lord said to me,‘ Enough! Do not speak to Me any more about this matter.Go up to the top of Pisgah and raise your eyes to the west, the north, the south, and the east, and see it with your eyes; for you shall not cross over this Jordan.

And He said to her,“ What do you desire?” She* said to Him,“ Say that in Your kingdom these two sons of mine shall sit, one at Your right, and one at Your left.”But Jesus replied,“ You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink?” They* said to Him,“ We are able.”
