What does Jesus' prayer (Luke 10:21-22) tell us about God and about ourselves?

 

First, it tells us that God is both Father and Lord of earth as well as heaven. He is both Creator and Author of all that he has made, the first origin of everything and transcendent authority, and at the same time, goodness and loving care for all his children. All fatherhood and motherhood are derived from him (Ephesians 3:14-15). Jesus' prayer also contains a warning that pride can keep us from the love and knowledge of God.

Luke 10:21-22
In that same hour he rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said, �I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you have hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to little children; yes, Father, for such was your gracious will. All things have been handed over to me by my Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, or who the Father is except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.�

Ephesians 3:14-15
For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named

John 10:30
I and the Father are one.

John 17:21
that they may all be one; even as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
