A Special Kind of Prayer

Jesus told the Father, "I pray for them, I do not pray for the world" (John 17:9, 20). His prayers were specifically for his children and those who would eventually believe in him. The things he prays here belong only to believers.

Jesus did not stop praying for us after this prayer in the 17th chapter of John. Paul writ pets that he is still making intercession for his children (Romans 8:34).

Jesus is talking to the Father on you behalf today.
