Until now This phrase indicates a transition point in the disciples' relationship with Jesus. Up to this moment, they have relied on Jesus' physical presence for guidance and provision.

Historically, this marks the shift from Jesus' earthly ministry to the era of the Holy Spirit, where believers are invited to engage directly with God through prayer. you have not asked for anything in My name Ask and you will receive so that your joy may be complete Ask, and ye shall receive, that your joy may be full.--The future is thought of as already present, and they are directed to ask, as though they had already entered into the new region of spiritual life. The pangs of the present travailing are passing away (John 16:22). The fulness of joy is already at hand. (Comp. Note on John 15:11.) Verse 24. - Hitherto - up to the present period - ye asked (ἠτήσατε, the common word for petition and request made by the inferior to the superior, the man to his Maker) nothing in my Name. The disciples had not comprehended the fullness of that Name of the well-beloved Son, filling their minds with the revelation of God made in it, and feeling it to be the great inducement and guarantee of acceptable prayer. Ask (continuously, habitually, for this is no longer in aorist, but in the present tense), and ye shall receive (ἵνα here not relic, but indicates "contemplated result"), that your joy may be fulfilled [rendered complete and full] (comp. John 15:11; Ver. 22); the joy of your love to one another and to me may reach its highest expression. There may be reference to their unanimity in the Holy Spirit, the Pentecostal outburst of perfect love which casts out fear.Parallel Commentaries ...
