An Easter Prayer

This is Christ Pantokrator, “Christ the Ruler of All,” as portrayed in an ancient church in Sicily. Today on Easter Sunday we celebrate His resurrection from the dead.

Or Lord our God, and Father of All: grant this Easter day of 2019 power to work all throughout the year, every day, to draw our hearts to Jesus Christ–by whose blood we are saved, by whose wounds we are healed; Jesus Christ, our rightful King and only Savior.

Do as thou has said, O Lord! Make His enemies His footstool, put all things under Him, make all things new and wash away all tears: we pray for the restitution of all things, under the Lordship of Jesus Christ the King of kings. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

God’s Word, God’s Glory

I don’t know who put this together: but it’s a collection of God’s words taken from the Prophets, the Gospel, and from Revelation, and I find it invigorates my soul. The background music is Conquest of Paradise.

Let’s not forget we serve an awesome God whose word will never return to Him without accomplishing its purpose.

‘King of Kings and Lord of Lords’

If we Christians were to proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ with the same energy with which the ungodly push their gospel of eternal death, there’d be no stopping the gospel.

This 1980 hymn, King of Kings and Lord of Lords, was composed by Nomi Batya Ginsberg–at the age of 13.

Think about that!
