Celebrate Easter Passion Week in PrayerSample

Prayers for Boundless Hope on Sunday of Passion Week Jesus is risen! Because He is risen, you are no longer in sin! Because He is risen, you are a new creation! Take a moment to marvel in prayer the life and glory of the resurrection of Christ. Prayer: Exalted and resurrected Jesus, we offer a threefold “Indeed!” to the Apostle Paul’s bold declaration, and we shout a threefold “Hallelujah!” early this hope-filled morning. For you have been raised from the dead, with healing in your wings and redemptive implications for everything. Because you have been raised from the dead, preaching the gospel isn’t useless; it’s essential. Faith in you isn’t futile, but fertile. We’re no longer encased in our sins; we’re fully wrapped in your righteousness. Those who’ve “gone to sleep” in you, aren’t slumbering in the void; they’re rejoicing in your presence. Because you have been raised from the dead, we’re less to be pitied than anybody, and more to be grateful than everybody (1 Cor. 15:14-19). Your resurrection changes everything. You are the first fruits and guarantee of a whole new order—the “new creation” dominion of redemption and restoration. Everything sad will come untrue, and all things broken will be made new. Because you have been raised from the dead, you are already reigning as King of kings and Lord of lords. All evil dominions, wicked authorities, and malevolent powers now stand defeated, and one Day they will be fully eradicated. Jesus, your death is the death of death, and your resurrection is the resurrection of all things. You died for our sins and have been raised for our justification. Oh, the wonder, marvel and gratitude that fills our hearts today. We are forgiven, we are beloved, and we are yours! In light of this great hope, compelling love, and measureless grace, free us for spending the rest of our days living and loving to your glory. So very Amen we pray, in your resurrected and reigning name. Listen to the prayer by copying and pasting this URL into your browser: https://abide.is/prayer/v4xunk.
