This week’s message, for May 17th, comes from John 17:1-11
Matthew 6:9-12 is often called the Lord’s Prayer, but Jesus could not have prayed it for himself because He was not a sinner. In what is commonly known as the Lord’s Prayer, Christ prescribed what His disciples should desire for themselves, but in today’s text from John’s gospel, He asks the Father for what He desires for them (including us). While there are some 650 prayers in the Bible, none match the splendor and majesty of this one, which, by the way, is the longest recorded prayer in any of the Gospels. Jesus closes the prayer by praying for everyone who will believe in Him through their message. Thus, this prayer should be known as the “Real Lord’s Prayer,” because Jesus prayed it out loud for our benefit.
