"Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the
world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through
Your name those whom You have given Me, that they
may be one as We are."
John 17: 11
Who prays for you?
If you could choose one person to pray for
you continually, who would that person be?
The most faithful Person you could enlist to pray for
you is the One who is already doing so. His prayers
for you started nearly two thousand years ago.
On the night of His arrest and trial, Jesus prayed what is now
called “The High Priestly Prayer” (John 17). In part, this longest
recorded prayer of Jesus is called “High Priestly” because
of
His intercessoryprayers for those who come to believe in Him.
He prayed that God would protect us from the power of the
devil who was bound to attack. And He continues to pray even
today, “since He always lives to make intercession for [us]”
(Hebrews 7:25).
Be assured you are being prayed for today by
your High Priest and Intercessor, Jesus Christ.
"Before the throne of God above, I have a strong,
a perfect plea, a great High Priest, whose name
is Love, who ever lives and pleads for me."
