It seems to me that the prayer we refer to as "The Lord’s Prayer" is really more clearly "The Disciples’ Prayer" and John 17 is actually the prayer our Lord prayed, Himself.
Therefore, anytime we want to hear our Lord Jesus pray, we can simply turn to John 17 and profoundly hear His heart.
Here’s a section of "The Lord’s Prayer" I’ve been saturating in today. Remember, this is God the Son praying to God the Father:
"My prayer is not that You take them out of the world but that You protect them from the evil one. They are not of the world, even as I am not of it. Sanctify them by the truth; Your word is truth. As You sent me into the world, I have sent them into the world. For them I sanctify Myself, that they too may be truly sanctified. "My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in Me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as You are in me and I am in You. May they also be in Us so that the world may believe that You have sent Me."
John 17:15-21 NIV
Will we be an answer to the prayer Jesus prayed? Have we been sanctified by The Truth? Will we be sanctified by The Truth? Remember, Jesus is The Truth!
HERE! Presence Matters Most!
No Invisible People! UNITY!
