Friday – Feb 18
Today’s scripture is John 17:24. In this short little scripture we discover the expressed desire of Jesus’s heart. This is an amazing reality for us to get a hold of. When we realize the intensity with which we are loved by God it will unlock our hearts to truly love Him back. It will empower us to lay our lives down in worship to see Him glorified.
Some things to think about.
- Do you believe that Jesus really wants you to be with Him today?
- Ask the Holy Spirit to let you behold the glory of Jesus and ask Him to let this beholding transform your heart.
- Are you in perfect unity with God? Is there something in your life that prevents you from being perfectly united to God?
- Are you walking in unity with those around you? Let the Holy Spirit bring to mind broken relationships in your life that He wants to restore and bring about perfect unity in.
- Have I said yes to Jesus’s sanctifying work in my life?
- What areas of my life is the Holy Spirit bringing to mind that He wants to empower me to have victory in?
Prayer: Father thank you for your love and grace. Jesus thank you for your burning desire to have me with you. Holy Spirit would you strike my heart with the reality of God’s desire for me. Help me to really understand and know how much you love me. God would you transform my heart with your love. Jesus I want to be with you today. I want to see your glory today. Holy Spirit, Spirit of Truth would you usher me into the reality of this scripture today. In Jesus name, amen.

Thursday – Feb 17
Today’s scripture is John 17:20-23. In this portion of the High Priestly prayer, Jesus prays for the Father to release the grace to be unified to those who believe in Him. It is God’s desire that His church would exemplify the same type of unity that is seen in the Father’s relationship with the Son. God wants us to have perfect unity with Him and with our brothers and sisters in Christ.
Some things to think about.
Prayer: Father thank you for the perfect example of unity that I can see in your relationship with Jesus. God thank you for inviting me into this type of unity with you and with others. I know that my brokenness sometimes gets in the way of me being able to walk in unity with you and with other people. God help me to do my part to be in unity with others. God give me supernatural grace to be a person of unity. In Jesus name, amen.

Wednesday – Feb 16
Today’s scripture is John 17:19. In this verse, Jesus prays to His Father about Him sanctifying Himself so that we could also be sanctified. Jesus does not just want us to be passive participants in our own sanctification, but He invites us to say yes to Him as He sanctifies us.
Some things to think about.
Prayer: God thank you for the invitation to be sanctified like you are sanctified. God I say yes to your desire to release holiness in my life. I want to look like Jesus. Holy Spirit please show me the places in my life that you want to sanctify and set apart for your Kingdom. Help me to say yes to this process of sanctification. In Jesus name, amen.
