John 16:16–24 once again reminds the disciples that Christ must suffer and die for the sins of the world (Mark 8:31). The days ahead will be especially dark and frightening for those who so closely followed Jesus. Yet the outcome will be powerful and world changing. Jesus explains this using the analogy of childbirth.
The Holy Spirit is upon us, Amen.
Time?

Whatsoever you shall ask in Jesus’ name is so done, Amen.
And we pray in The Name of Jesus:
Father LORD, Your will be done in my life in Jesus’ Name, Amen. I claim Your promises in my life, Your will be done, Amen. You have written my story, move me to walk the straight and narrow path, in my life LORD be glorified, Amen.
