Text for the Day -- John 16:22-24 ---------- So you have pain now; but I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you. On that day you will ask nothing of me. Very truly, I tell you, if you ask anything of the Father in my name, he will give it to you. Until now you have not asked for anything in my name. Ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be complete.
Devotional ---------- Jesus has given us a special gift. He has given us the authority and power of his name to be used in prayer. In John's Gospel we have a clear picture of the outcomes of our relationship with Jesus. Out of the relationship of love and obedience we have with Christ, we have the authority to play a priestly role of prayer intercession for the church and the world. Do not underestimate the power of the name of Jesus in your prayer ministry.
Prayer ------- Thank you, gracious Lord, for the permission to use the authority of your name in prayer for our needs. Amen
