Jesus’ high priestly prayer is one of the greatest examples of prayer in scripture. As we read this passage, notice the things for which Jesus prayed. In general, Jesus was praying for the equipping of the church to continue the work of the covenant, which is to bring the renewal of all things through the lordship of Jesus. Our prayers should seek the same thing and likewise recognize this reality by praying in the name of Jesus.
