Praying in the name of Jesus

John 16:23-33

23 In that day you will ask nothing of me. Truly, truly, I say to you, whatever you ask of the Father in my name, he will give it to you. 24 Until now you have asked nothing in my name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full. 25 “I have said these things to you in figures of speech. The hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures of speech but will tell you plainly about the Father. 26 In that day you will ask in my name, and I do not say to you that I will ask the Father on your behalf; 27 for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God. 28 I came from the Father and have come into the world, and now I am leaving the world and going to the Father.” 29 His disciples said, “Ah, now you are speaking plainly and not using figurative speech! 30 Now we know that you know all things and do not need anyone to question you; this is why we believe that you came from God.” 31 Jesus answered them, “Do you now believe? 32 Behold, the hour is coming, indeed it has come, when you will be scattered, each to his own home, and will leave me alone. Yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me. 33 I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; *xlI have overcome the world.”

Juan 16:23-33

23 “En aquel día no me preguntaréis nada. De cierto, de cierto os digo, que todo cuanto pidiereis al Padre en mi nombre, os lo dará.” 24 “Hasta ahora nada habéis pedido en mi nombre; pedid, y recibiréis, para que vuestro gozo sea cumplido.” 25 “Estas cosas os he hablado en parábolas; pero la hora viene cuando ya no os hablaré en parábolas, sino que claramente os anunciaré del Padre.” 26 “Aquel día pediréis en mi nombre, y no os digo que yo rogaré al Padre por vosotros;” 27 “pues el Padre mismo os ama, porque vosotros me habéis amado, y habéis creído que yo salí de Dios.” 28 “Salí del Padre, y he venido al mundo; otra vez dejo al mundo y voy al Padre.” 29 Sus discípulos le dijeron: He aquí ahora hablas claramente, y ninguna parábola dices. 30 Ahora entendemos que sabes todas las cosas, y no necesitas que nadie te pregunte; por esto creemos que has venido de Dios. 31 Jesús les respondió: “¿Ahora creéis?” 32 “He aquí la hora viene, y ya ha venido, en que seréis dispersados cada uno a los suyos, y me dejaréis solo; mas no estoy solo, porque el Padre está conmigo.” 33 “Estas cosas os he hablado para que en mí tengáis paz. En el mundo tendréis aflicción; pero confiad, yo he vencido al mundo.”
