OF
THE PRAYER

“Many enemies surround me like bulls.
They are all around me.
Like fierce bulls from the land of Bashan.
They open their mouths like lions.
Roaring and tearing at me.”
(The Psalm-22, Verses: 12 & 13)
In terms of these Verses, Jesus is describing the dominance of his enemies and his weakness before them. He is completely dominated by his enemies and no one is there to rescue him. So, he is expressing his helplessness and thereby seeking help from the Lord. And, he is very right in seeking help from the Lord as the Lord is the Almighty GOD. Who is never dominated by the enemies__ and Who alone__ is All-able to cure every wrong. (1)
The writers have declared Jesus as the almighty lord in their Gospels. But here the situation is altogether contrary. If Jesus were the lord and almighty god, then, he would have never cried for help in such a desperate way. (2)
