John 17:15–18

I pray not that you would take them from the world, but that you would keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them in your truth. Your word is truth. As you sent me into the world, even so I have sent them into the world.

Jesus prays for His followers, not for escape from the world, but for protection within it. We are sent, not sheltered. Jesus asks the Father to guard us from evil while we live on mission, shaped by God’s truth. This passage reminds us that holiness and engagement are not opposites. As believers, we live set apart yet sent out. Stand firm in God’s Word, trust His protection, and embrace your calling to reflect Christ faithfully in a world that needs His light.

Prayer

Dear Heavenly Father, protect me from deception and ground me in your truth. Help so that I do not believe everything that makes me feel good. Help me to always be able to discern what is truth and what is deceptive. In Jesus Name Amen.
