God is not shy to say I am God like in these verse, "Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am
God, and there is none like me" Isa 46:9
Jesus is never recorded in the Bible as saying the exact words, “I am God” in the NT. Is this a coincidence? I think not.
If Jesus is God, then who did He pray to? For deity does not pray to Deity.

The answer lies in the statement "If"
Since the bible doesn't teach that Jesus is God,
He wouldn't make and didn't make such a statement.
He said the Father is greater than I.
Not my will but yours.
Only the Father knows
My God, (as a man, just prior to going to heaven, and 60 years after he was in heaven.)
In Revelation, when John feel down at the angel's feet, the angel said to worship God, not Jesus.

There are dozens of passages where Jesus said things that could be interpreted no other way unless He is God. As for the nature of God, Jesus is the second person of the Trinity. God the Son prayed to God the Father. The links below have a ton of information that should be helpful to you.

As for Jesus not saying he was God; think again. The Lord described Genesis-Malachi was the Lord; the Lord Jesus Christ.

You are assuming. Jesus said many times that He is God. That is why the Leaders wanted Him Crucified, because He made Himself Equal with God.
We know that each Person of The Godhead communicates with each other Person of the Godhead, from the first few Chapters of Genesis.

I see where you're comming, It is really hard to understand. It is beyond what man can understand. The Trinity is God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. They are all one. It is hard for us to see that. But they are all ONE. They are all different forms of God. But they are all equally important. May God Bless you and answer your questions. : )

You must be joking right, He is the son of God part of the trinity, and he does say what He is in the new testament, and if you resd Genesis, you will read We did, We build, its always in plural, because Jesus has always existed.
