Easter Prayer - March 31, 2024

Easter Prayer…

Dear Lord Jesus...I worship and adore You today! All that You purchased for me upon that dreadful cross is now fulfilled in the empty tomb. Honestly, because You live, I CAN face tomorrow. You alone are worthy of all my love, and on this magnificent day, I celebrate You. Even as the world grows darker, Your light and power shine brighter. I pray for a release of souls who will receive salvation today as they simply ask You into their hearts to forgive all their sin. As folks listen to Easter services online or as they gather in person around the world, I pray for an overwhelming sense of Your presence through the Holy Spirit. Lord Jesus, I love you so much, and in Your Name Above All Names, I pray. Amen!

He is not here; He has risen, just as He said…
Matthew 28:6

Good Friday Prayer - March 29, 2024

Morning Moment of Prayer…

Dear Lord Jesus…Words fail me this morning as I enter Your presence on this holy day. This day, when You willingly poured out Your life for me. When You suffered untold agony physically, yet even more, when Father’s face was turned from You and the Trinity was sundered apart because You were bearing the full weight of sinful humanity. I am forever in wonder and in debt to Your love that is beyond reason and knows no boundaries. Once again, I surrender my entire life to You, I am Yours. Yes, Lord. I stand in awe of You. In the Name that Knows No Bounds, King Jesus. Amen.

For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He [even] gave up His only begotten (unique) Son, so that whoever believes in (trusts in, clings to, relies on) Him shall not perish (come to destruction, be lost) but have eternal (everlasting) life.
John 3:16 AMPC
