Powerful Statement

Let us continue to muse today from John 17:11a and the high priestly prayer. In our text today we find our Lord making a powerful statement in prayer when He says, I am now no more in this world. It is clear that He is still upon the earth while praying. I feel that we are being told that in the midst of true Holy Ghost prayer the world loses all its grip and effect upon us and we are truly made to sit with present tense reality in heavenly places. The thought makes us want to spend much time in prayer today.
