Prayer In Jesus Name.

The Father Is Glorified In Answered Prayer.

“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will also do; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything in My name, I will do it. John 14:12-14.

Love Is An Important Quality In Prayer.

“These things I have spoken to you, that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. This is My commandment that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this than to lay down one’s life for his friends. You are My friends if you do whatever I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing, but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made known to you. You did not choose Me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should remain, that whatever you ask the Father in My name He may give you.

He That Believes On Jesus .

Becoming The Children Of The Father.

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.  The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all men through Him might believe.  He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light.  That was the true Light, which lights every man that comes into the world.  He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew Him not.  He came unto His own, and His own did not receive Him.  But as many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name: Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. John 1:6-13.

To Believe In The Father Requires Believing In Jesus.

Let not your heart be troubled: you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.  Read More... “He That Believes On Jesus .”

Following Jesus No Turning Back.

Counting The Cost.

And there went great multitudes with Jesus: and He turned, and said unto them, If any man come to Me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple. And whosoever does not bear his cross, and come after Me, cannot be My disciple. For which of you, intending to build a tower, first sits down and counts the cost, whether he has sufficient to finish it? Lest haply, after he has laid the foundation, and is not able to finish it, all that behold it begin to mock him, Saying, This man began to build and was unable to finish.

Or what king, going to make war against another king, does not first sit down and consult whether he be able with ten thousand to meet him that comes against him with twenty thousand? Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an ambassador and desires conditions of peace. So likewise, whosoever he be of you that does not forsake all that he has, he cannot be My disciple. Luke 14:25-33.

Be Fully Persuaded.

From that time many of His disciples went back, and walked no more with Him. Read More... “Following Jesus No Turning Back.”

By Honouring The Son, You Honour The Father.

All Men Should Honour The Son.

Then Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do: for what things soever the  Father does, these also does the Son likewise.  For the Father loves the Son and shows Him all things He does: and the Father will shew Him greater works than these, that you may marvel.

For as the Father raises up the dead, and quickens them; even so the Son quickens whom He will.  For the Father judges no man, but has committed all judgment unto the Son:  That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that does not honour the Son does not honour the Father which has sent Him. John 5:19-23.

Honour From The Father Must Be Sought.

I receive not honour from men.  But I know you, that you do not have the love of God in you.  I have come in My Father’s name, and you do not receive Me: if another shall come in his own name, him you will receive.  How can you believe, which receive honour one of another, and seek not the honour that comes from God only?
