Easter Monday, March 28, 2016

Easter Monday, March 28, 2016                 Amen!                      

He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.  ^{Revelation 22:20}

These words may function as a liturgical response to the reading of this prophetic word. On that understanding, what followed the reading of this revealed word would be the Communion liturgy.[1]

How do I know God is able to answer the prayers of His people in Christ? He alone is the King who has all good gifts in His control. He alone has the power to grant our petitions. He has all glory and is worthy of our praise.[2]

O God, in the paschal feat You restore all creation. Continue to send Your heavenly gifts upon Your people that they may walk in perfect freedom and receive eternal life; through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever. Amen[3]
