them, that they MAY BE ONE JUST AS WE ARE ONE:
I in them, and You in Me; that they MAY BE MADE
PERFECT IN ONE, and that the world may know
that You have sent Me, and have loved them AS
You have loved Me. Father, I desire that they
also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I
am, THAT THEY MAY BEHOLD MY GLORY which You
have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation
of the world. O righteous Father! The world
has not known You, but I have known You; and
these have known that You sent Me. And I have
declared to them Your name, and WILL DECLARE
IT, THAT THE LOVE WITH WHICH YOU LOVED ME MAY
BE IN THEM, and I in them." (John 17:21-26)
The
Apostolic Prayer of Peter and John
1.
Prayer for the impartation of Holy Spirit boldness
through the release of signs and wonders.
"they
raised their voice to God with one accord and
said: 'Lord, You are God, who made heaven and
earth and the sea, and all that is in them,
who by the mouth of Your servant David have
said: Why did the nations rage, and the people
plot vain things? The kings of the earth took
their stand, and the rulers were gathered together
against the Lord and against His Christ. For
truly against Your holy Servant Jesus, whom
You anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate,
with the Gentiles and the people of Israel,
were gathered together to do whatever Your hand
and Your purpose determined before to be done.
Now, Lord, look on their threats, and GRANT
TO YOUR SERVANTS THAT WITH ALL BOLDNESS THEY
MAY SPEAK YOUR WORD, BY STRETCHING OUT YOUR
HAND TO HEAL, AND THAT SIGNS AND WONDERS MAY
BE DONE through the name of Your holy Servant
Jesus. And when they had prayed, the place where
they were assembled together was shaken; and
they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and
they spoke the word of God with boldness."
(Acts 4:24-31, Eph. 6:19)
