"HIS Prayer of Love!"

 

"Sanctification and Holiness!"

 

John 17:15-19 (Amplified Bible)

I do not ask that You will take them out of the world, but that You will keep and protect them from the evil one. They are not of the world (worldly, belonging to the world), [just] as I am not of the world. Sanctify them [purify, consecrate, separate them for Yourself, make them holy] by the Truth; Your Word is Truth. Just as You sent Me into the world, I also have sent them into the world. And so for their sake and on their behalf I sanctify (dedicate, consecrate) Myself, that they also may be sanctified (dedicated, consecrated, made holy) in the Truth.

The Apostle John knew Christ was the Son of God, and he recorded for us this prayer that Jesus prayed to the Father on our behalf.

This is a perfect example of Love, that Christ, the King of Glory, would petition our Creator, God the Father, for our sanctification, safety and salvation by HIS sacrifice.

As a Believer in Christ, I must follow HIS example of proclaiming the Truth of God, praying as Jesus did, that in the sacrifice that Jesus made of HIS own life, others may also receive the Promise of Eternal Life!

I must obediently and lovingly go into the highways and byways, hedgerows and fields of the world, and be a witness and give testimony of Christ and HIS Love for all mankind!

 

O'Lord, make me a blessing for others I pray!
That others may see YOUR Love through me!!
I give YOU my heart to do as YOU will,
because out of YOUR Love for me,
YOU died to set me free!!!

 

I will sing for Joy, all of my days!!!

 

Forever and Amen!!!
