high priestly prayer

Brother Nick continues in the Gospel of John 17:16-18

Brother Nick finishes his points from last week from the High Priestly Prayer in John 17.

As Christians, we often remember the things that Jesus has done.

With that said, have you ever wondered: what is He doing right now?

Among other things, Jesus is interceding on behalf of His people. You have a divine advocate that is (even now) seeking your welfare! And that should be an encouragement during these difficult days.

Questions That We'll Answer:

A) Why is John 17 referred to as the 'high priestly prayer?'

B) Who did Jesus pray for in this text? And what did He say?

C) In what way is Jesus interceding for you this very moment?

The Life of Moses- ep. 19  🤲  Have you ever thought that unity or fellowship wasn't worth the drama?  It's hard to be unified in this sinful and fallen world, even in the family of God...and sometimes *especially* in the family of God.  This episode focuses on the necessity of reaching out when we feel weak and encourages us to press in when we are overwhelmed and stretched. 
Israel fights her first battle with Amalek, Moses gets tired, and the family of God rises to the occasion.  We will see connections between this Old Testament account and Jesus's high priestly prayer right before He went to the cross.  An exhortation and encouragement we all need to hear!

*Exodus 17:8-16*

Why is it so hard for some to read Isaiah 53 and not see Jesus? Are there other Old Testament scriptures that claim Jesus as God? Did Jesus pre-exist, and was He seen and recognized by anyone? Is God the Father of all People? Should Christians share the Gospel with the Jewish people? I Wanna Know.

What was the glory that Jesus had with the Father before the world was? Has Jesus given that glory to us? If so, for what purpose? Can the glory of God be tangibly felt or seen? How do we achieve complete unity with the Godhead? Should we ever find pleasure in our persecutions or weakness? I Wanna Know.

It was over 2000 years ago when Jesus said a prayer for His disciples, and that included all of His followers, past, present, and future! Pastor Nat details how this prayer impacts our faith today.

And it is His truth that leads us every day and every step of the way! Discover the compassion and loving-kindness of our Savior in JESUS: Walking in Grace and Truth by Pastor Nat Crawford. We're looking forward to sending you a copy of this new devotional as our gift of thanks for your ministry contribution.

Get this offer for a gift of any amount today.

When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, “Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you, 2 since you have given him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all whom you have given him. 3 And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. 4 I glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do. 5 And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed.6 “I have manifested your name to the people whom you gave me out of the world. Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. 7 Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you. 8 For I have given them the words that you gave me, and they have received them and have come to know in truth that I came from you; and they have believed that you sent me. 9 I am praying for them. I am not praying for the world but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours. 10 All mine are yours, and yours are mine, and I am glorified in them. 11 And I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are one. 12 While I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me. I have guarded them, and not one of them has been lost except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled. 13 But now I am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves. 14 I have given them your word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. 15 I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one. 16 They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. 17 Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. 18 As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. 19 And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth.20 “I do not ask for these only, but also for those who will believe in me through their word... 

1.     If you were to imagine Jesus praying for you, what do you hope he’d pray?
2.     How does it sound to you that you are a gift to Jesus from the Father?  What does that say about you and what does that say about God?
3.     Is it appealing to you that eternal life is being adored by God and adoring him in return?
4.     Do you see Jesus as a gift to you or a prize to win or a boss to appease?
5.     Do you regularly see joy as the end and purpose of the Christian’s life?  If not, how would seeing life that way impact you?
6.     Do you long for holiness?  Why or why not? Do you trust Jesus to sanctify you or he is he waiting for you to sanctify yourself?

Christ’s prayer for humanity is that they be consecrated. Once the people of God were consecrated by the blood of ritual sacrifices. He shows a new path to Consecration: He consecrates himself for our sake, that we may also be consecrated in truth. In this fourth episode of our series on John 17, we explore what it means to be consecrated in truth.

How do we find true protection in this world? In the third episode of our series on John 17, we learn that this protection is at the heart of Christ’s prayer for us.  He prays for us to become a unified community; that we overcome the isolation and separateness inherent to this world and become unified in Christ and the Father, sustained by the blessing of His protection, which flows from the spirit world. The work of heaven on earth is building community. In this work, Christ’s joy is fulfilled in us and we become part of something no one can take away.

The opening lines of John 17 contain an essence of the mysteries of Christianity - Christ’s relationship to humanity and to God - flowing to us from this intimate prayer to the Father, the night before His crucifixion. Christ’s hour has come. Through the “glory” of the cross, Christ is given the authority to grant eternal life, so that a new community can unfold and God’s hope for humanity be fulfilled.

With this episode we open up a new series that will explore what it means to be united with Christ and to live “in this world”.  To do this, we will be working with one single text: the so-called ‘High Priestly Prayer’ found in the Gospel of John, chapter 17.  To lay the ground work, Jonah and Patrick dive into the idea of ‘the world’ in John’s gospel, uncovering a, perhaps, surprising spiritual cosmology that ultimately leads to the idea that all our suffering and difficulty in ‘this world’ is merely the birth pains of a new one that is coming.
