Text for the Day -- John 16:25-28
----------
"I have said these things to you in figures of speech. The hour is
coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures, but will tell
you plainly of the Father. On that day you will ask in my name. I do
not say to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf; for the
Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed
that I came from God. I came from the Father and have come into the
world; again, I am leaving the world and am going to the Father."
Devotional
----------
Jesus is preparing his disciples for his departure. He assures them
that because they have believed in him the Father loves them and
responds directly to them. In Jesus' name they are linked to God. It
is important to claim the name. The name of Jesus is our identity and
authority. Remain in his name and you remain in his love.
Prayer
-----------------
May I hallow your name this day, O Jesus. Amen
