  6. John 17:1–5 (ESV) • 1When Jesus had spoken these words, he lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, “Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you, 2 since you have given him authority over all flesh, to give eternal life to all whom you have given him. 3 And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. 4 I glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work that you gave me to do. 5 And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed.

  7. The Father selected Jesus’ disciples. • John 17:6–19 • 6 “I have manifested your name to the people whom you gave me out of the world. Yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. • He revealed the nature of the Father to His apostles. • They belonged to the Father first. The Father gave them to him. • They obeyed the word. • My prayer: You know you are not here by accident.

  8. Christ was giving them what the Father had given Him. 7 Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you. 8 For I have given them the words that you gave me, and they have received them and have come to know in truth that I came from you; and they have believed that you sent me. • What He gave them came from the Father. • His Words were not his own. • They received and believed it. • My prayer: nothing I say comes from me. And if it is from God, you’ll receive it.

  9. Jesus cared more about God’s kids than the world’s kids 9I am praying for them. I am not praying for the world but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours. • Christ’s first responsibility for intercession is for those whom the Father put in his care. • My prayer: For you!! Because you are His.

  11. Keep them Father • 11 And I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you. Holy Father, keep them in your name, which you have given me, that they may be one, even as we are one. • I’m gone • They’re here • Keep them faithful. • Keep them united. • My prayer: Stay faithful. Stay focused in the faith.

  12. Secure them! • 12While I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me. I have guarded them, and not one of them has been lost except the son of destruction, that the Scripture might be fulfilled. • I kept them. • I guarded them. • Only the one who was not one of them is …. • My prayer: Protect them in the faith.

  13. Don’t let them loose the joy. • 13 But now I am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves. 14 I have given them your word, and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. • Keep the joy. • They have the Word • The world hates them. • They aren’t of the world. • Jesus wasn’t of the world. • My prayer: keep the joy in spite of the world.

  14. Protect them from the world w/out taking them out. • 15I do not ask that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one.16 They are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. • Be in the world, but not of the world. • Protect them from the evil one in the world. • My prayer: You can live in the world, testify to the world, but not be defiled by the world.

  15. Separate them by your word • 17 Sanctify them in the truth; your word is truth. 18 As you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. 19 And for their sake I consecrate myself, that they also may be sanctified in truth. • Set them apart. • Let your word and truth keep them pure from the world. • You sent me into the world. Now I send them. I’m set apart. Let them be set apart through truth. • My prayer: Be set apart! Impact the world!
