Now unto Him Who is able
to do exceeding abundantly
above all that we ask or think,
according to the power that
works in us,
Unto Him be glory in the church
by Christ Jesus throughout all
ages, world without end. Amen.
(Ephesians 3.20 & 21).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
I write these things to you who believe
in the name of the Son of God so that you
may know that you have eternal life.
This is the confidence we have in
approaching God: that if we ask
anything according to His will, He
hears us. And if we know that He
hears us- we know that we have
what we asked of Him.
(I. John5.13-15).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Ask, and it will be given to you;
seek and you will find; knock
and it will be opened to you.
(Matthew 7.7).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in Me
will do what I have been doing.
He will do even greater things than these,
because I am going to the Father.
And I will do whatever you ask in My name,
so that the Son may bring glory to the Father.
You may ask Me for anything in My name, and I will do it.
(John 14.12-14).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Jesus saw that they wanted to ask Him
about this, so he said to them,
“Are you asking one another what I
meant when I said, ‘In a little while
you will see Me no more, and then
after a little while you will see Me’?
I tell you the truth, you will weep
and mourn while the world rejoices.
You will grieve, but your grief will
turn to joy. A woman giving birth to
a child has pain because her time has
come; but when her baby is born
she forgets the anguish because of
her joy that a child is born into the
world. So with you: Now is your
time of grief, but I will see you again and
you will rejoice, and no one will take
away your joy.
In that day you will
no longer ask Me anything.
I tell you the truth, My Father will give you
whatever you ask in My name.
Until now you have not asked for anything
in My name. Ask and you will receive, and
your joy will be complete.
Though I have been speaking figuratively,
a time is coming when I will no
longer use this kind of language but will
tell you plainly about My Father.
In that day you will ask in My name.
I am not saying that I will ask the Father
on your behalf. No, the Father Himself
loves you because you have loved Me
and have believed that I came from God.
I came from the Father and entered
the world; now I am leaving the world
and going back to the Father.”
Then Jesus’ disciples said, “Now you are
speaking clearly and without figures of
speech. Now we can see that you know
all things and you do not even need to have
anyone ask you questions.
This makes us believe that you came from God.”
“You believe at last!” Jesus answered. ” But a time
is coming, and has come, when
you will be scattered, each to his own home.
You will leave Me all alone. Yet I will
not be alone for My Father is with me.
I have told you these things, so that in Me
you may have peace.
In this world you will
have trouble. But take heart!
I have overcome the world.”
After Jesus said this, He looked
toward heaven and prayed:
” Father, the time has come.
Glorify Your Son, that Your Son may glorify You.
For You
granted Him authority over all people that
He might give eternal life to all those You
have given Him. This is eternal life: that they may
know You, the only true God, and Jesus
Christ, Whom You have sent.
I have brought You glory on the earth by
completing the work You gave Me to do.
And now, Father glorify Me in Your presence
with the glory I had with You
before the world began.
I have revealed You to those whom You
gave Me out of the world. They were Yours; You gave
them to Me and they have obeyed Your word.
Now they know that everything You have given
Me comes from You.
For I gave them the words You gave me
and they accepted them. They
knew with certainty that I came from You,
and they believed that You sent Me.
I pray for them.
I am not praying for the world, but for those
You have given Me, for they are Yours. All I have
is Yours, and all You have is Mine. And glory has
come to Me through them. I will remain in the
world no longer, but they are still in the world,
and I am coming to You. Holy Father, protect
them by the power of Your name- the name You
gave Me- so that they may be one as we are one.
While I was with them, I protected them and
kept them safe by that name you gave Me.
None has been lost except the one doomed to
destruction so that Scripture would be fulfilled.
I am coming to You now, but I say these things
while I am still in the world, so that they may
have the full measure of My joy within them.
I have given them Your word and the world has
hated them them, for they are not of the world
any more than I am of the world. My prayer
is not that You take them out of the world but
that You protect them from the evil one. They
are not of the world, even as I am not of it.
Sanctify them by the truth: Your word is truth.
As You sent Me into the world, I have sent them
into the world. For them I sanctify Myself,
that they too may be truly sanctified.
My prayer is not for them alone.
I pray also for those who will believe in Me though their
message, that all of them may be one,
Father, just as You are in Me and I am in You.
May they also be in Us so that the world may
believe that You have sent Me.
I have given them the glory that You gave Me,
that they may be one as we are one; I in
them and You in Me.
May they be brought to complete unity to let
the world know that
You sent Me and have loved them even as
You have loved Me.
Father, I want those You have given Me to
be with Me where I am, and to see My glory, the
glory You have given Me because You have loved
Me before the creation of the world.
Righteous Father, though the world does not
know You, I know You, and they know that
You have sent Me. I have made You known
to them, and will continue to make known in
order that the love You have for Me may be
in them and that I Myself may be in them.
(John 16.19-31 and john 17.1-26).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
I write these things to you wh0 believe in the name of the Son of God
so that you may know that you have eternal life. This is the confidence
we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to His
will, He hears us. And if we know that He hears us- whatever we ask-
we know that we have what we asked of Him.
(I. John 5.13-15).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
But someone may ask, “How are the dead raised? With what kind of body
will they come?” How foolish! What you sow does not come to life unless
it dies. When you sow, you do not plant the body that will be, but just a
seed, perhaps of wheat or something else. But God gives it a body as He
has determined, and to each kind of seed He gives its own body. All flesh
is not the same: Men have one kind of flesh, animal have another, birds
another and fish another. There are heavenly bodies and there are earthly
bodies; but the splendor of the heavenly bodies is one kind, and the splendor
of the earthly bodies is another. The sun has one kind of splendor, the moon
another and the stars another; and star differs from star in splendor.
So will it be with the resurrection of the dead.
The body that is sown is perishable, it is raised imperishable; it is sown
in dishonor, it is raised in glory; it is sown in weakness, it is raised in power;
it is sown a natural body, it is raised a spiritual body.
(I.Corinthians 15.35-44).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, if anyone
steadfastly believes in Me, he will be able to do
the things that I do; and he will do even greater
things than these, because I go to the Father.
And I will grant whatever you ask in My Name,
so that the Father may be glorified and extolled
in the Son.
I will grant whatever you shall ask in My Name.
(John 14.12-14).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Jesus knew that they wanted to ask Him,
so He said to them,Are you wondering
among yourselves what I meant when I
said, In a little while you will no longer
see Me, and again after a short while you
will see Me?,
I assure you, most solemnly tell you, that
you shall weep, but the world will rejoice, but
your sorrow will be turned into joy.
A woman, when she gives birth to a child has
grief because her time has come. But when she
has delivered the child, she no longer remembers
her pain because she is so glad that a child is born
into the world.
So for the present you are also in sorrow; but I will
see you again and your hearts will rejoice, and no one
can take from you your joy.
And when that time comes, you will ask nothing of Me.
I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, that My Father
will grant you whatever you ask in My Name.
Up to this time you have not asked a thing in My Name;
but now ask and keep on asking and you will receive,
so that your joy may be full and complete.
(John 16.19-24).
HALLELUJAH! THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOREVERMORE!
Now to Him Who, by the power that is at work within us,
is able to carry out His purpose and do superabundantly,
far over and above all that we dare ask or think, infinitely
beyond our highest prayers, fondest desires, deepest thoughts,
greatest hopes, wildest dreams-
To Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout
all generations forever and ever. Amen.
(Ephesians 3. 20 & 21).
