Opening Prayer
You died that we might be forgiven, Lord; but that was not the end. You plundered death, and made its jail-house shudder - strode into life to meet Your startled friends.
We have a dream that all the world will meet You, and know You, Jesus, in Your living power, *
that someday soon all people everywhere will hear Your story, and hear it in a way they understand.

Praying the Scripture
He saw that there was no one, he was appalled that there was no one to intervene; so his own arm worked salvation for him, and his own righteousness sustained him. He put on righteousness as his breastplate, and the helmet of salvation on his head; he put on the garments of vengeance and wrapped himself in zeal as in a cloak.
According to what they have done, so will he repay wrath to his enemies and retribution to his foes; he will repay the islands their due. *
From the west, men will fear the name of the LORD, and from the rising of the sun, they will revere his glory. For he will come like a pent-up flood that the breath of the LORD drives along. "The Redeemer will come to Zion, to those in Jacob who repent of their sins," declares the LORD.
- Isaiah 59:16-20 (New International Version)
Response to the Scripture

Ending Prayer
My eyes, my eyes have seen the King. The vision of His beauty has pierced me deep within. To whom else can I go? My heart, my heart desires Him. He's touched something inside of me that's now reaching out for Him. And I know that I must go. My God is my love, my guard, my healing one; my bright love is my merciful Lord; my sweet love is Christ; His heart is my delight; all my love are You, O King of glory. Amen.
