5 Things Jesus Ask the Father to Do for You

1. GIVE THEM PROTECTION.

I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.

2. GIVE THEM UNITY.

That they all may be one;…

 John 17:21
That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.

John 13:35
“This is how everyone will recognize that you are My disciples.  When they see the love that you have for each other.”  

Romans 15:5 NIV
May the God who gives endurance and encouragement give you the same attitude of mind toward each other that Christ Jesus had,

so that with one mind and one voice you may glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Accept one another, then, just as Christ accepted you, in order to bring praise to God.

3.  GIVE THEM JOY.

John 17:13
13And now come I to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they might have MY JOY fulfilled in themselves.

4. GIVE THEM PURITY.

John 17:17
17Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth.

John 17:19
19And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth.  

Titus 1:15 (TLB)
 15Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled.

5.  GIVE THEM HEAVEN 

John 17:24
24 Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

John 17:25-26
25 O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me. 26 And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.
