Abstract

Prayer has always been an important daily activity in the lives of Christians. If people do not pray, it is very easy to fall into the temptations of the devil, and fall away. Jesus in the Garden of Olives reminded his disciples to watch and pray so as not to be far from temptation (Luke, 2022) (Luke 22:46). The Church has always taught us to 'pray like breaths or heartbeats' every day (Francis, 2021) (Nguyễn, 2020). This shows the special importance of prayer. However, not everyone knows how to pray properly, because sometimes we just know how to 'beg' rather than pray. Although asking is also a form of prayer, it seems to only go one way from man to God, without knowing what God's will is every time we ask. This article will present a model of prayer that is very pleasing to God, because this model of prayer is a model drawn from Jesus' sincere prayer when he prayed most urgently, before when entering torture.
