What this episode covers

Glorifying Jesus; Completing the Work He’s Given Us to Do (John 17:1-13) Bible Reading: After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed: "Father, the time has come. Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you. For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him. Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent. I have brought you glory on earth by completing the work you gave me to do. And now, Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began. "I have revealed you to those whom you gave me out of the world. They were yours; you gave them to me and they have obeyed your word. Now they know that everything you have given me comes from you. For I gave them the words you gave me and they accepted them. They knew with certainty that I came from you, and they believed that you sent me. I pray for them. I am not praying for the world, but for those you have given me, for they are yours. All I have is yours, and all you have is mine. And glory has come to me through them. I will remain in the world no longer, but they are still in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, protect them by the power of your name - the name you gave me - so that they may be one as we are one. While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe by that name you gave me. None has been lost except the one doomed to destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled. "I am coming to you now, but I say these things while I am still in the world, so that they may have the full measure of my joy within them. John 17:1-13 Scripture Reflections to Consider: How well do you do thinking about others during your own trials and difficulties? How should we act as ministers and leaders in the body of Christ? Do you have a heart to do the work Jesus has given you to do? Are you looking to bring glory to yourself, or to Jesus? Are there non-essential doctrines that you consider essential? How well do you do in having unity with other Christians? How much of “the measure of Jesus’ joy” do you have within you?
