Pray is Love manifesting…

Do you love your neighbour as yourself- then pray!

Do you love your brethren in Christ- then pray!

Do you love our LORD- then pray…

Pray is Love manifesting… (John 13:1) Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that His hour had come that He should depart from this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.

(John 13:2) And supper being ended, the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray Him,

(John 13:3) Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He was come from God and was going to God,

(John 13:4) rose from supper and laid aside His garments, took a towel and girded Himself.

(John 13:5) After that, He poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel with which He was girded.

(John 13:6) Then He comes to Simon Peter. And Peter says to Him, Lord, do You wash my feet?

(John 13:7) Jesus answered and said to him, What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will come to understand after this.

(John 13:8) Peter said to Him, You shall certainly not ever wash my feet! Jesus answered him, If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me.

(John 13:9) Simon Peter said to Him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!

(John 13:10) Jesus said to him, He who is bathed has no other need than to wash his feet, but is completely clean. And you are clean, but not everyone.

(John 13:11) For He knew who was betraying Him; therefore He said, Not everyone of you is clean.

(John 13:12) So when He had washed their feet, taken His garments, and reclined again, He said to them, Do you know what I have done to you?

(John 13:13) You call me Teacher and Lord, and you say well, for so I am.

(John 13:14) If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.

(John 13:15) For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.

(John 13:16) Truly, truly, I say to you, A servant is not greater than his master; nor is the messenger greater than the one sending him.

(John 13:17) If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.

(John 13:18) I do not speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen; but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, He who eats bread with Me has lifted up his heel against Me.

(John 13:19) Now I tell you before it happens, that when it does come to pass, you may believe that I AM.

(John 13:20) Truly, truly, I say to you, He who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.

(John 13:21) When Jesus had said these things, He was troubled in spirit, and testified and said, Truly, truly, I say to you that one of you will betray Me.

(John 13:22) Then the disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom He spoke.

(John 13:23) Now there was reclining at Jesus’ bosom one of His disciples, whom Jesus loved.

(John 13:24) Simon Peter therefore nodded to him to ask who it might be of whom He spoke.

(John 13:25) Then, leaning back on Jesus’ breast, he said to Him, Lord, who is it?

(John 13:26) Jesus answered, It is he to whom I shall give a morsel when I have dipped it. And having dipped the morsel, He gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

(John 13:27) And after the morsel, Satan entered him. Then Jesus said to him, What you do, do quickly.

(John 13:28) But no one at the table knew for what reason He said this to him.

(John 13:29) For some thought, because Judas had the moneybag, that Jesus was saying to him, Buy those things we need for the feast, or that he should give something to the poor.

(John 13:30) Having received the morsel, he then went out immediately. And it was night.

(John 13:31) So, when he had gone out, Jesus said, Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in Him.

(John 13:32) If God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself, and glorify Him at once.

(John 13:33) Little children, I shall be with you a little while longer. You will seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, Where I am going, you are not able to come, so now I say to you.

(John 13:34) A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I love you, that you also love one another.

(John 13:35) By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you have love mutually with one another.

(1 Corinthians 13:1) If I were to speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become as sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.

(1 Corinthians 13:2) And if I were to have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I were to have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

(1 Corinthians 13:3) And if I were to bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and if I were to give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

(1 Corinthians 13:4) Love is longsuffering and is kind; love does not envy; love does not boast itself, is not puffed up;

(1 Corinthians 13:5) does not behave indecently, does not seek its own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil;

(1 Corinthians 13:6) does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;

(1 Corinthians 13:7) covers all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

(1 Corinthians 13:8) Love never fails. But if there are prophecies, they will come to an end; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will come to an end.

(1 Corinthians 13:9) For we know in part and we prophesy in part.

(1 Corinthians 13:10) But when the complete whole comes, then that which is in part will come to an end.

(1 Corinthians 13:11) When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put an end to childish things.

(1 Corinthians 13:12) For now we see through a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall fully know just as I also am fully known.

(1 Corinthians 13:13) And now remain faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
