Hole dir die AppDaily Bible Reading – February 2022: God’s Renewing Word of LoveBeispiel
February 17
Introduction
Today’s reading is a prayer often referred to as Jesus’s “High Priestly Prayer,” and it appears only in John’s Gospel. After Jesus’s final discourse with his disciples, and prior to his betrayal and arrest, he addresses God in prayer. Jesus acknowledges that he has completed the work God sent him to do, and he intercedes on behalf of his disciples and all future believers.
Scripture Reading
John 17:1-26
Today’s Key Verse: John 17:9
[Jesus said:] “I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for those you gave me, for they belong to you.”
Reflect
Because Jesus prays that all who believe be united by their faith in him, the prayer serves as a call to Christian unity. What does Jesus ask of God (verses 1, 5, 11, 15, 17, 20-21)? What does knowing that Jesus prayed for you mean to you?
Pray
Dear Jesus, you came to break down walls that divide us. Unite us in heart and mind to follow you and give glory to God. In faith, I pray in your holy name. Amen.
Tomorrow’s Reading
Colossians 1:1-14: The apostle Paul thanks the believers in Colossae for their faith.
