John’s collection of evidence makes
the most compelling testimony and
portrayal of Jesus as Son of God
and His right to demand our trust.
This week we learn from the Master
final instructions on discipleship
thus positioning ourselves rightly
in order to encounter His presence.
On Monday, we learn from John 10
to Listen and Follow the Shepherd.
On Tuesday, we learn from
John 13 to Love One Another.
On Wednesday, we learn from John
15 to Abide In Christ to be Fruitful.
On Thursday, we learn from John
16 to Tap On Holy Spirit’s Power.
On Friday, we learn from John 17
to Be United With One Another.
Let us humble ourselves and pray
and seek His face…In Jesus’ name.
Christ Jesus Prays for Our Unity
The Upper Room Discourse
contains Jesus’ final words of
instruction and encouragement
to His disciples before His death.
Only John records these intimate
moments between Jesus & His
men as He models true humility,
describes the Holy Spirit who
will comfort and empower them;
and Intercedes for Protection and
Unity of His disciples worldwide.
Lord, we pray for Unity among us:
I do not pray that You should take
them out of the world, but that You
should Keep Them fr the evil one.
They are not of the world, just as
I am not of the world. Sanctify them
by Your Truth… As You Sent Me
into the world. I also Have Sent
them into the world (Jn 17:15-18).
My prayer is not for them alone.
I pray also for those who will
believe in me thro their message,
that all of them May Be One…
that they also may be One In Us,
that the world may believe that
You sent me (Jn 17:20-21). Amen.
Lord Jesus, I praise You for Your
great salvation for all mankind.
Thank You for not only saving me
but also being my High Priest,
Caring for me. Thanks for Heb 7:25
promise that You will always
Intercede for me before Father God.
Provide & protect me Lord & enable
me to conform to Your will. Amen.
Lord Jesus, You have sent us
into the world with an assignment.
You have provided Your Word to
protect us from worldly influence.
Help us soak our mind, will and
emotion with Your Word; and let
it flavour every aspect of our life.
And help us to be truly salt of the
earth & light of the world. Amen.
Lord, I pray for Unity with family
members & with other believers
regardless of any differences
in views, values, race or culture.
May we be truly one with the
Father, the Son & the Holy Spirit.
May this Unity I have with You and
with others show the world, that
You Jesus came from the Father.
May this Unity draw prebelievers
to You Jesus so that they too
may experience Your love. Amen.
