180. John 17:11-13 With Jesus Behind The Veil-Part 14 (5-8-22)

Calvary Chapel Elk Grove-Gospel of John

180. John 17:11-13 With Jesus Behind The Veil-Part 14 Pastor Phil Ballmaier Calvary Chapel Elk Grove 5-8-22 Join Pastor Phil Ballmaier of Calvary Chapel Elk Grove as he works his way through the Gospel of John on Sunday Mornings. Today we continue in Chapter 17 in Part 14 of, "With Jesus Behind The Veil". John 17 is known as ‘the High Priestly prayer of Jesus.’ Jesus knew He was just a few hours from the Cross and set this time aside to go before His Father with the most important burdens on His heart. He prayed for Himself (verses 1-5), for His Disciples (verses 6-19), and He prayed for us | all future believers to come. (verses 20-26). Today Pastor Phil shares how Jesus, in His final hours prayed. He prayed for Himself, for His 12 Disciples, and He prayed for us. Jesus prayed, "Father, please keep them..." Pastor Phil pointed out, “Keep them from defilement.” We are to be in the world, but not of it, or pursuing earthly things. As we abide in Him and purpose in our hearts, we must plan our day by ‘going about our Father’s business.” Purposing to walk in His ways, be in His Word, spending time with Him. The devil lurks about like a roaring lion looking for who he may devour. This includes believers. The enemy will try to attack our hearts and minds and draw us away, corrupting our walks and snuffing out our light for God. May we live and walk on purpose! It starts in our hearts, in our homes and clinging to God, and His precious promises. He will enable us to walk in holiness and in The Spirit. Have questions? We'd love to talk to you about it more.
