Praying with Paul: 'Eyewitnesses'

Thursday, May 2, 2024

1 Corinthians 15:5-10

Dear Father, God of real history,

Thank you for the testimony of eyewitnesses who saw Christ alive after his crucifixion: Cephas, the twelve, more than five hundred brethren, and James. Thank you for the testimony of the apostles and for Paul.

I am grateful that I am not following cleverly devised myths, but the reality of history! I believe their testimony! And yours!

In the name of Jesus I come, thanking you for your resurrection power and asking that I may live so as always to have hope of sharing in it. Amen.
