Praying Revelation 19:11-16 (Complete Jewish Bible)

Next I saw heaven opened, and there before me was a white horse. Sitting on it was the one called Faithful and True, and it is in righteousness that he passes judgment and goes to battle. His eyes were like a fiery flame, and on his head were many royal crowns. And he had a name written which no one knew but himself. He was wearing a robe that had been soaked in blood, and the name by which he is called is, "THE WORD OF GOD." 

The armies of heaven, clothed in fine linen, white and pure, were following him on white horses. And out of his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down nations. *
"He will rule them with a staff of iron." It is he who treads the winepress from which flows the wine of the furious rage of ADONAI, God of heaven's armies. And on his robe and on his thigh he has a name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.

 

Response to the Scripture

As you purify and unite your Church, give us wisdom and revelation to know your thoughts and your plans concerning the people of Israel and the earth to which you will return as Bridegroom, King and Judge.

 

Draw near to Godโ€™s throne of grace
with the thanksgivings, prayers, & intercessions that are on your heart

The Spirit and the Bride say *
โ€œCome!โ€

Even so, Lord Jesus, come quickly. *
It is in righteousness that the one called Faithful and True passes judgment and goes to battle.

Ending Prayer

Oh, to see the sight, next to Christโ€™s coming in the clouds, the most joyful! Our elder brethren the Jews and Christ fall upon one anotherโ€™s neck and kiss each other!

They have been long asunder; they will be kind to one another when they meet. *
O Day! O longed for and lovely dawn!

O sweet Jesus, let me see that sight which will be as life from the dead, Thee and Thy ancient people in mutual embraces.

- Samuel Ratherford

 

In the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen.
