In his farewell prayer, Jesus prays for the church. Just as the Father sent Jesus into the world, Jesus sends the church into the world. As he sends out the church, Jesus makes four petitions for the church:
1) That they may be one.
2) That they may have the joy of Jesus.
3) That God would protect them from the evil one.
4) That God’s people would be sanctified by God’s word.
Are we experiencing what Jesus prayed for? How can we be a part of the answer to Jesus’ prayer?
