Wish – John 15: 7

If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.

In the post titled “Wants” (May 18, 2019) we looked at a similar verse. In John 14: 13-14 Jesus says, “And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.” In that post, we talked about the fact that Jesus always does whatever his Father wants.

In today’s verse, Jesus repeats his offer. Only this time there is a clarification of what he means. “If” you remain in Jesus, and “if” Jesus’ words remain in you, whatever you wish will be done for you.

Now the question becomes if you are in Jesus and if his words are in you, what would you wish for? I have a feeling that being in Jesus alters what we wish for.
