They Have Believed | The Prayer [Week 2] | Mark Seagle | Feb. 7, 2021

The prayer of Jesus is His heart connecting our heart with the Father's heart. Nothing at all can separate us from the love of God, as Jesus is constantly and passionately moving toward us, working in us, and interceding for us. Jesus' rescue and salvation reaches all the way into the darkest crevices of our souls.

John 17.6-8

Father, I have manifested who you really are and I have revealed you to the men and women that you gave me. They are yours…. - Jesus, in John 17.6

* The work of Jesus on your behalf is a finished work. He has completed your salvation, rescue, forgiveness, present, future and the eternal. It is finished. Jesus’ current work is to pray for you. Jesus always lives to intercede for you. (Hebrews 7.25).  He is praying that you see and that you believe what He has already completed. What is your first thought, as you learn that Jesus lives to pray for you?  Perhaps, Jesus knows that our hearts are in need of revelation. We are in need of eyes to see and ears to hear all that is completed in you. Will you lift your face and your hands, asking that you would take in all that He has completed on your behalf? It may be wise to create a journal for all the He will reveal to you through worship and in the Word.  

* Because the word of Christ was received and believed, there was an ever increasing certainty about Jesus. In what ways has God ‘fastened His work firmly in your heart'?
