Night Prayer
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.
Inspiration
When we are made new in Christ, he invites us to a new way of thinking. No longer should our focus be on the pursuits of this world, but on the pursuit of God’s kingdom. For when we see the risen Jesus, we see beyond the world that ends in death as our eyes are opened to eternity. And so, with eyes wide open, we meditate on heavenly things, as Jesus works His perfection through us.
Prayer
Lord, thank You for making me a part of Your church. Thank You for making Jesus my cornerstone. Please work in me so that my heart and my life may be continually aligned to him. And set me in the place that You choose so that I may support my brothers and sisters in Christ and carry out Your purpose in my life. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Night Prayer
Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.
Inspiration
We humble ourselves before the Lord when faced with the almighty power He possesses. Death is final to us, yet it has no command over the Maker of the heavens and earth. God has authority over all His creation; we feel small, yet mighty and honored, to be loved by Him. We are grateful that the One who holds the world in the palm of His hand also carries our spirits close to His heart and feels we are worthy to experience eternal life.
Prayer
Dear God, we humble ourselves before You. Thank You for considering us worthy of Your love. We devote our spirits to You and are proud to be Your children. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
