I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours.

John 17:9

 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.”

This message of hope and comfort are for those who believe in Jesus and are living in Him.

John 17: 20

This for me, for you, for all believers who follow Jesus as his thankful disciples.  This is true and will not be changed.

I am convinced that God is the Father of all who believe, all who are in Jesus. I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.

Jesus prayer for his disciples is stronger than we might imagine, much stronger!  The great delight of my soul is knowing that I am in the loving hands of Jesus Christ.  HE Prays For Me!  This is a blessing indeed.
