Passage:
John 14:22-31
Key verse: 27
NIV
22 Then Judas(A) (not Judas Iscariot) said, “But, Lord, why do you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?”(B)
23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching.(C) My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them.(D) 24 Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.(E)
25 “All this I have spoken while still with you. 26 But the Advocate,(F) the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name,(G) will teach you all things(H) and will remind you of everything I have said to you.(I) 27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.(J) I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled(K) and do not be afraid.
28 “You heard me say, ‘I am going away and I am coming back to you.’(L) If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father,(M) for the Father is greater than I.(N) 29 I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe.(O) 30 I will not say much more to you, for the prince of this world(P) is coming. He has no hold over me, 31 but he comes so that the world may learn that I love the Father and do exactly what my Father has commanded me.(Q)
“Come now; let us leave.

ESV
22 (A)Judas (not Iscariot) said to him, “Lord, how is it (B)that you will manifest yourself to us, and not to the world?” 23 Jesus answered him, (C)“If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and (D)we will come to him and (E)make our home with him. 24 Whoever does not love me does not keep my words. And (F)the word that you hear is not mine but the Father's who sent me.
25 “These things I have spoken to you while I am still with you. 26 But the (G)Helper, the Holy Spirit, (H)whom the Father will send in my name, (I)he will teach you all things and (J)bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you. 27 (K)Peace I leave with you; (L)my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. (M)Let not your hearts be troubled, neither (N)let them be afraid. 28 (O)You heard me say to you, (P)‘I am going away, and I will come to you.’ If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I (Q)am going to the Father, for (R)the Father is greater than I. 29 And (S)now I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place you may believe. 30 I will no longer talk much with you, for (T)the ruler of this world is coming. (U)He has no claim on me, 31 but I do (V)as the Father has commanded me, (W)so that the world may know that I love the Father. Rise, let us go from here.

1. Show yourself to the world! (22-24)
Judas (Thaddaeus) wanted Jesus to do some dramatic miracle that would force all the world to believe. But this is not how God works. He works through his Holy Spirit in the hearts of those who welcome him. He comes to dwell with those who love him and obey him. One who loves Jesus knows that the Bible is the word of God; he tries to obey God's word (21,23). God reveals himself to us when we put his word in our hearts.
2. The work of the Counselor (25-31)
The Counselor, the Holy Spirit, is the Spirit of truth (17). He gives us wisdom; he teaches us God's word and helps us walk in God's ways (26). He gives us his peace (27). We look for the world's peace in a comfortable, problem-free environment; Jesus' peace is within. It is ours even in the midst of a storm. When we have Jesus' peace, anxiety leaves. Read verses 28-31. Jesus died to defeat the devil and give us forgiveness and peace.
Prayer: Lord, come and make your home in my heart forever.
One Word: Jesus gives real peace
