Caring Through Prayer: Reflecting on John 17:1-26

DAY 5 OF 6

Reflection on Leadership and Global Mission

Jesus’ leadership was not only expressed in instructing and commissioning others to carry his message. On his final evening with the disciples, Jesus demonstrates leadership by washing their feet. (John 13:1-5) In John 17, as their time together swiftly draws to a close, he demonstrates leadership through intercession. Imagine how our churches, organizations, and nations might be transformed if every Christian leader were committed to focused prayer for those under their care. What specific commitments to prayer for others is God inviting you to make?
