Sept 14                                            The Power of God’s Word
I revealed you to them and I will continue to do so. Then your love for me will be in them and I will be in them. –John 17:26 (NLT)
YOUR LOVE FOR ME WILL BE IN THEM
A poem and essay by ILMA
Jesus reveals himself to those who love him
He will change their hearts and will be redeemed
He asks God the Father to continually reveal
Christ wants to transfer God’s love to those who believe.
He prays that we hunger for the love of God
He wants all believers to give him laud
When we seek God with all our heart
We will be one with Christ and never be apart.
Have you ever prayed so hard for someone? I am sure that when someone you love is suffering, you will pray very hard to alleviate their pain. It is easy to pray for someone close to you but what about people you don’t know? What about people who are giving you a difficult time to love them? Praying for someone is a very powerful act. The prophet Daniel prayed for the Israelites and God heard and answered his prayers.
Jesus prayed to God for people who believe. He asks everything for all those who believe. He summons God to continually revealing truth to them. God’s love for Jesus is transferred to His people.
PRAYER
Lord, teach me how to pray like you.
