My Morning Prayer: Jesus Rose for You

My Morning Prayer: Jesus Rose for You
-Roy Lessin and Marina Bromley
 
Jesus Rose for You
-Roy Lessin, Meeting in the Meadow

Jesus died and rose for us! Does this not say it all?
If we only knew this one truth, it would be sufficient.
If we only had this loaf of spiritual bread to eat, it would satisfy our hunger.
If we only had this living water to drink, it would quench our thirst.
 
Jesus died and rose for you!
This is the taproot from which the tree of life grows.
This is the headwater from which the healing river flows.
This is the pen from which the great doctrines of faith are written—justification, sanctification, redemption, salvation—Jesus died and rose for you.

Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us (Romans 8:34 NKJV).

My Morning Prayer

-Marina Bromley

Father, as we continue to contemplate and celebrate all that Jesus did for us, we praise You that You made a way through Him for us to be redeemed. Thank You for the forgiveness of our sins. Thank You that because of the great power that lives in Him, we can look forward to all the promises made in the Bible. Because of the power in Jesus's name, we are justified, sanctified, redeemed, and saved...and someday we too will be resurrected, joining You God, and Your Son, Jesus, in the heavenlies. What a great and marvelous day that will be! May we live each day being Your hands and feet, sharing the Gospel promises to those who don't yet know You, until we are united. In Jesus' name. Amen.
