a prayer for seeing God's promise

He said to them, “How foolish you are, and how slow to believe all that the prophets have spoken! Did not the Messiah have to suffer these things and then enter his glory?” And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, he explained to them what was said in all the Scriptures concerning himself. (Luke 24:25-27)

Lord,

Just as those who struggled to and were slow to believe, we, too, are slow and foolish of heart, needing the ministry of the Spirit to free me from our unbelief. We praise you for your pursuit of us, your limitless patience, and steadfast love. 

Jesus, continue to do for us what you did for those on Emmaus Road - to see you everywhere in Scripture. Drive deep into our hearts that truth of how you have fulfilled the law, and we can add nothing to our salvation. Keep us clear and free from all forms of works-driven salvation, and me-centered living. Keep convincing us that you are the resounding "Yes!" to every promise God has made through the prophets - not just with to the cross, but also to your crown! (1 Cor. 1:20). 


Amen
