We Celebrate the King Who Rose
As we prepare for Easter, let’s celebrate the King Who Rose and invite children to accept Jesus as the King who rose from the dead and is Lord of all!
As we prepare for Easter, let’s celebrate the King Who Rose and invite children to accept Jesus as the King who rose from the dead and is Lord of all!
As enter the season of Advent, we remember God comes near to us and desires for us to come near to Him. Lord, provide us with the quiet moments we need to prepare our hearts to worship You this Christmas. Amen.
In a world that is always changing, sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worse, it is reassuring to know God never changes. His plans do not change. His promises do not change. Praise Him!
Lord I thank you for who you are as my Father, Lord, and Provider. You are faithful to who you are and to all you say.
Lord, You are the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth. You are good to everyone and shower compassion on all of Your creation. Mighty King, Amen.
“We are grateful, Lord, for Your authority, power, and compassion to heal. We are in awe of the eternal impact these healing miracles have on others. Help each of us to believe in and respond to Your healing. Amen.
“Thank You, Lord, for keeping Your promise to send us Your Son Jesus, the Prince of Peace. Prepare our hearts to celebrate the fulfillment of Your promise. Amen.”
“Thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness in helping us turn back to You when we stray and thank You for sending Your Son to rescue us. Amen.”
“Thank You, Lord, for faithfully pursuing us. Fill the children with Your Holy Spirit so they might recognize Your voice and turn their hearts toward You. Amen.”
“Thank You, Lord, for protecting us from the schemes of Satan. Help the children stand their ground and understand how to use the armor of God so they can be strong in You. Amen.”
“Thank You, Lord, for the opportunities You give us to spread the gospel and to pray for those who hear it to believe. Help us inspire the students to pray for others to grow close to You. Amen.”
“Thank You, Lord, for Your miracles. Fill us with Your Spirit, so we may put our faith in You. Amen.”
“Thank You, Lord, for pouring out Your Spirit on all believers. Fill us with Your Spirit so we may share the good news about Jesus with people all over the world. Amen.”
At Christmas, we celebrate that God came near to us as a baby. He was born, so He could grow up to save us from life forever without Him. Because of Jesus’ sacrifice, we have hope in and through Him.
