The writer of Hebrews connects the Garden prayer of Jesus on the night of His arrest with the making of Jesus as the Great High Priest. But more importantly, something happened in the Garden that gives us the confidence to draw near to the throne of grace in a time of need. By looking at the prayer of Jesus in the Garden (Matthew 26.36-46) through the lens of Hebrews 4.14-5.10, we come to see where our confidence in prayer comes from. We can confidently expect to receive mercy from the Father because the Son chose to drink the cup of God’s wrath so that we don’t have to. We can confidently expect to receive grace from the Father because He appointed the Son to be the Great High Priest to intercede for us. We can confidently expect to receive help in time of need because Jesus is both Priest and King of Kings with authority over all things. (Matthew 26.36-46) April 25, 2021.
