Song Story: THE LYRICS: (There isn't much to the song story for the music:
God gave me the idea, it was quickly written and recorded at the studio within a couple of weeks. Assuredly God's gift to you.... I just developed the ideas.)
I have often found so much comfort in John 17:20....
Isn't it AMAZING -- Jesus prayed for YOU and ME, in the 21st century!
Jesus's prayers are not constricted by time... so He STILL prays for you and me! I have often found so much comfort in Luke 22: 32......
Isn't it AMAZING -- Jesus knew that one of His best friends was going to betray him.
Not just once but three major-event times. And of course in other times, just as we all sin. Yet Jesus still loved Peter. Jesus still prayed for Peter. Jesus gave Peter the words that MUST have given Peter much hope as he despaired over what he did to Jesus --
“WHEN you return.......”
Peter must have so often fought off despair at his sins by remembering that (1) Jesus prayed for him and (2) Jesus Himself indicated that Peter WOULD turn back even after hurting Jesus so much. (3) Jesus reminded Peter that Satan is a REAL person, like the personhood of God-a-person, who is an enemy trying to destroy. Later, Peter would write words that assuredly came from these words of Jesus -- First Peter 5: 8,
“Be sober, be VIGILANT; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.” A person... not a “representation of evil” as many Christ-claiming church-type groups are starting to say is the “modern interpretation.”
NOTICE THAT JESUS HIMSELF SAID SATAN IS REAL.
Luke 22:31. John 8:44 references Genesis. Luke 10:18 goes earlier! Matt 24:38- Flood was real.
DO NOT BELIEVE PREACHERS JUST BECAUSE THEY ARE PREACHERS IF THEY SAY THAT early chapters of GENESIS IS A MYTH !!!!!
That sentence says that Jesus (who spoke of the flood and of Sodom also) was lying.
==================================================================
“WHEN you return.....” Words of hope for us, after the darkness of Romans 7's reality -- We WILL sin against God. Yet Jesus prayed for us. We can choose, like Peter, to ask forgiveness, to ask the Holy Spirit's power to fight sins (Ephesians 6:10- to end), and to keep going knowing Jesus answers our prayers (Ephesians 3:20-21).
“WHEN you return....” Jesus gave Peter a MISSION with encouraging words:
“WHEN you have returned, STRENGTHEN YOUR BRETHREN.”
a mission for us all.
WHEN we simply, humbly pray for forgiveness... and return.
And Peter DID and STILL DOES. His letters...First Peter 5:8...continue to strengthen us.
