to pay the taxes. Christ made Him self the lowest of paupers and of no reputation in social circles. He prayed that He would do the Father’s will. Christ Prayed- Not for the World John 17:9 We never read in the Scripture that Jesus or any o f His disciples prayed for the world to get better, for so ciety to improve or for the liquor traffic to be whipped.

We will think of them in this lesson. Christ Prayed for Himself Matt. 26:39 We do not find in any of the re corded prayers of Jesus that He asked for anything for Himself in the way of comforts,.blessings, food, shelter, money, or conveniences. He never requested any earthly blessings although He hungered, thirsted, and was weary. He had to borrow a penny for an illustration. He had Peter catch a fish with money in its mouth
