Job 19:25-27 As for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, and that at the end of time he will stand over the dust. Then, even after my skin has been destroyed, nevertheless, in my own flesh, I will see God. I myself will see him. My own eyes will see him, and not as a stranger. My emotions are in turmoil within me. Dear Heavenly Father, Please give us faith and confidence like Job, to know that our Redeemer lives.…

1 Corinthians 15:12-22 Now, if it is preached that Christ has been raised from the dead, how is it that some among you say that there is no resurrection of the dead? If there is no resurrection of the dead, not even Christ has been raised. And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is pointless, and your faith is pointless too. Then we are even guilty of giving false testimony about God because we testified about God that…

Matthew 12:40   [Jesus said] For just as Jonah was in the belly of the huge fish for three days and three nights, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. Dear Lord Jesus, You told your disciples that you would be in the grave for three days. You kept your word, you died, and three days later, you rose victoriously from your tomb. In doing so, you defeated death…

John 19:30 When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished!” Then, bowing his head, he gave up his spirit. Dear Heavenly Father Are there three other words that could be put together to have a more significant impact on mankind? Perhaps “Let there be!” From when you first spoke those words, your plan to save man from the destruction of sin was carved out to redeem us from all our sins. Lord, we look at your…

Daily Prayer Thursday April 1, 2021 13 So he sent two of his disciples, telling them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him. 14 Say to the owner of the house he enters, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is my guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’ 15 He will show you a large room upstairs, furnished and ready. Make preparations for us there.” 16 The disciples left, went into the city and found things just…

Mark 14:3-9 While Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon, the leper, as he was reclining at the table, a woman came with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, made from pure nard. She broke the alabaster jar and poured it over his head. But there were some who were indignant and said to one another, “Why has this perfume been wasted? Certainly, this perfume could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to…

Matthew 21:18-22 As he returned to the city early in the morning, he was hungry. Seeing a fig tree by the road, he went up to it but found nothing on it except leaves. He said to it, “May there never be fruit from you again!” Immediately the fig tree withered away. When the disciples saw it, they were amazed and asked, “How did the fig tree wither so quickly?” Jesus answered them, “Amen I tell you: If you have faith, and…

Matthew 21:12-17 Jesus entered the temple courts and drove out all those who were selling and buying in the temple. He overturned the tables of the money-changers and the seats of those who were selling doves. He said to them, “It is written, ‘My house will be called a house of prayer,’ but you are making it a den of robbers!” The blind and the lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them. But when the chief…

Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I am now living in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Dear Lord Jesus, When you died on that cursed tree, we were hung with you—every sin, from every person you took to the cross and was paid in full. There on the cross, you suffered the…

Hebrews 13:14 For we do not have a permanent city here, but we are looking for the city that is coming. Dear Heavenly Father, We have been placed on this earth to wander here until our time is ended, but our wandering is not pointless. We have been given three tasks, one you would have all people be saved and come to a knowledge of the truth. So, this is step one; we must come to know you. Your Spirit…
