The prayer of the week is based on John 14:16-17

  Jesus You asked Your Father to give all who receive You as their Savior a Helper, a Counselor, to be with us forever and ever and ever.  That Helper/Counselor is God the Holy Spirit.  He is the Spirit of truth.  You have told us that it is impossible to receive Christ.  Why?  Because those without Him as their Savior will not “see Him or know Him.”

  However (what a glorious however) the followers of Christ know Him because the Spirit of God abides (lives) with us and is in us.

  We are blessed by Your very presence!  Thank You!

  In the name of Jesus, Amen.
