Transcript
- 0:00We, as Christians, believe in the power of prayer. We take our worries,
- 0:04confessions, trials, and tribulations to God.
- 0:07We seek, we ask, we pray, and we humble ourselves before the Lord Almighty.
- 0:13The results are powerful.
- 0:15Prayers answered or not build faith and bring us closer to God.
- 0:20We seek prayers when we are in a tough spot, especially when we need healing
- 0:25emotionally, spiritually, or physically.
- 0:28My church has a strong prayer warrior group. These women can move mountains
- 0:33with their faith in Jesus.
- 0:35Here is something I realized this morning. We have an eternal friend who prayed
- 0:41for us before we were born, before
- 0:44we were Christians, and before we had volumes written on how to pray.
- 0:50Quote, I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who believe in me through
- 0:56their word, that they all may be one, as you,
- 1:00Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be one in us,
- 1:06that the world may believe that you sent me,
- 1:09and the glory which you gave me, I have given them, that they may be one just as we are one,
- 1:16I in them and you in me, that they may be made perfect in one and that the world
- 1:23may know that you have sent me and have loved them as you have loved me.
- 1:31John 17 verses 20 through 23.
- 1:36Savor the words of John 17, 20, where Jesus said, I do not pray for these alone,
- 1:44but also for those who will believe in me through their word. He prayed for you.
- 1:50Let that sink in. The Alpha and the Omega, the King of Kings,
- 1:55he prayed for you. He interceded for you.
- 1:58He prayed for you before you knew you needed a prayer.
- 2:02We have an amazing God. He planned
- 2:04ahead. He secured a place for us in the mansion of our Father Almighty.
- 2:09His prayers are going to keep us out of harm's way. We have a solid,
- 2:14although narrow, path home, and it is illuminated with His light.
- 2:19This is true blessing. This is true love. Your destiny is secure in Him.
- 2:25Dear Lord, my little brain and tiny heart cannot begin to understand the wonders of Your love.
- 2:32The beauty, magnanimity, and thoughtfulness are overwhelming.
- 2:35I am overcome and so happy about this revelation that Jesus prayed for me.
- 2:42You lead my way through and out of evil. Your love for us, while undeserved,
- 2:48is our only hope and path home.
- 2:50All glory be yours. I pray in Jesus' sweet name. Amen.
