In Jesus’ final prayer for His disciples, He prayed this: “Now I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You, Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are.” John 17:11.
The part that stuck out to me as I read it this week was, “Keep them through Your name.” What IS that name? And how does it keep (to attend to carefully, take care of, guard, reserve, preserve, keep His eye on) us? What if it’s not just one name—but every name? He is all of this and can do all of these things—but I have a feeling it doesn’t even touch the surface of Who God really is! (A big thank you to David Jeremiah for his work in putting these names and references together.)
