MY WORD
John 17:1–26 (The Living Bible) 1 When Jesus had finished saying all these things he looked up to
heaven and said, “Father, the time has come. Reveal the glory of your Son so
that he can give the glory back to you. 2 For you have given him
authority over every man and woman in all the earth. He gives eternal life to each one you have given him. 3 And
this is the way to have eternal life—by knowing you, the only true God, and
Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth! 4 I brought glory to you
here on earth by doing everything you told me to. 5 And now, Father,
reveal my glory as I stand in your presence, the glory we shared before the
world began. 6 “I have told these men all about you. They were
in the world, but then you gave them to me. Actually, they were always yours,
and you gave them to me; and they have obeyed you. 7 Now they know
that everything I have is a gift from you, 8 for I have passed on to
them the commands you gave me; and they accepted them and know of a certainty
that I came down to earth from you, and they believe you sent me. 9 “My plea is not for the world but for those
you have given me because they belong to you. 10 And all of them,
since they are mine, belong to you; and you have given them back to me with
everything else of yours, and so they are my glory! 11 Now
I am leaving the world, and leaving them behind, and coming to you. Holy
Father, keep them in your own care—all those you have given me—so that they
will be united just as we are, with none missing. 12 During my time
here I have kept safe within your family all of these you gave me. I guarded
them so that not one perished, except the son of hell, as the Scriptures
foretold. 13 “And now I am coming to you. I have told them many
things while I was with them so that they would be filled with my joy. 14
I have given them your commands. And the world hates them because they don’t
fit in with it, just as I don’t. 15 I’m not asking you to take them
out of the world, but to keep them safe from Satan’s power. 16 They are not part of this
world any more than I am. 17 Make them pure and holy through
teaching them your words of truth. 18 As you sent me into the world,
I am sending them into the world, 19 and I consecrate myself to meet
their need for growth in truth and holiness. 20 “I am not praying
for these alone but also for the future believers who will come to me because
of the testimony of these. 21 My prayer for all of them is that they
will be of one heart and mind, just as you and I are, Father—that just as you
are in me and I am in you, so they will be in us, and the world will believe
you sent me. 22 “I have given them the glory you gave me—the
glorious unity of being one, as we are—23 I in them and you in me,
all being perfected into one—so that the world will know you sent me and will
understand that you love them as much as you love me. 24 Father, I
want them with me—these you’ve given me—so that they can see my glory. You gave
me the glory because you loved me before the world began! 25 “O righteous
Father, the world doesn’t know you, but I do; and these disciples know you sent
me. 26 And I have revealed
you to them and will keep on revealing you so that the mighty love you have for
me may be in them, and I in them.”
[Please Note: Always Read the Word of God in Context asking
the Holy Spirit of the Living God to give you the interpretation. 2 Peter 1:16–21 (Williams) 16 For it was not mere stories of fancy
that we followed when we told you of the power and coming of our Lord Jesus
Christ, but we had been eyewitnesses of His majesty. 17 For when He
received such honor and glory from God the Father, when from the majestic glory
there was borne to Him a voice like this, “This is my Son, my Beloved, in whom
I take delight.” 18 we heard this voice ourselves borne from heaven
while we were with Him on that sacred mountain. 19 So we have the
message of the prophets more certainly guaranteed. Please pay attention to this message as to a
lamp that is shining in a dismal place, until the day dawns and the morning
star rises in your hearts; 20 because you recognize this truth above
all else, that no prophecy in Scripture
is to be interpreted by one’s own mind, 21 for no prophecy has
ever yet originated in man’s will, but men who were led by the Holy Spirit
spoke from God.]
