John 17 : 14-24
KJV


14 I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them,
because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world,
but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.
16 They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.
17 Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.
18 As thou hast sent me into the world,
even so have I also sent them into the world.
19 And for their sakes I sanctify myself,
that they also might be sanctified through the truth.
20 Neither pray I for these alone,
but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;
21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me,
and I in thee, that they also may be one in us:
that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them;
that they may be one, even as we are one:
23 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one;
and that the world may know that thou hast sent me,
and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.
24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me,
be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory,
which thou hast given me:
for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.
   


Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

We look to you in our many needs,
in the distress of our hearts,
in the anguish of the whole world.
We beseech you, let light come to your people
everywhere on earth to bring them your help and your victory.
Remember the wretched, the sick, the poor.
Let your living strength come to them so that they can
bear their sufferings and hold out joyfully to the end.
Remember us all,
O Lord our God,
for we all need you.
We are weak and poor and cannot go forward alone.
Your Spirit must help us.
May the Savior come to us,
and may his grace and his power be born in our hearts.


In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen
