The Lord Prays for His Disciples and Future Believers
Aug 16, 2026 • Dr. Jim Glass
As the Lord makes His way to the Garden of Gethsemane with His disciples, He pauses to pray, asking the Father to protect them from the evil one, that they would discover His joy in themselves, and that the Father would sanctify them as they are being sent into the world. He also prays for those who will believe in Him because of the message the disciples will share so that they all might be one in Him as He is One with the Father and so that the world might believe that the Father has sent His Son.
