John 14:13
King James Version
11 Jun 2026
“And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.”

When Jesus teaches His disciples to pray, He begins with the most radical word imaginable — Father. In the ancient world, approaching God as Father was almost unthinkable. Jesus opens the door and says: this is how you come. Not as a subject before a king. As a child before a Father who already knows what you need.
