P RINCE OF L IFE

You disowned the Holy and Righteous One and

asked for a murderer to be granted to you,

but put to death the Prince of life,

the one whom God raised from the dead,

a fact to which we are witnesses.

ACTS 3:14-15

Adoration

Jesus, You are the prince of life who was put to death in order that God might raise You from the dead. Through Your death, burial, and resurrection, we are each given the opportunity to trust in You for eternal life. It is in Your name that life exists. It is through Your act of sacrificial love that eternal life is offered. I worship You, for You have the power to lay down Your life and take it up again. I worship You, for by Your very word You can speak life into that which is dead and have it be raised again. In Your life is found healing, peace, grace, unconditional love, understanding, and warmth. I honor You as the prince of life because You are the source of life itself.

Confession

Jesus, taking life for granted is one of the most foolish things I have ever done. And yet I do it far more often than I even want to admit. Taking You for granted is even worse. You are my life. You are the sum total of my life. You are the meaning of my life. My identity is found in You, the prince of life. Forgive me for seeking life in other sources. Forgive me for denying You the honor and gratitude You deserve. Help me live my life according to the direction and truth found in Galatians 2:20: “I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself up for me.”

Thanksgiving

Thank You, Jesus, for every day that You give me life. Thank You for being the prince of life and the source of my life. Thank You for allowing me another day to know You and serve You. You have placed so many things on earth for us to enjoy—things created by You, like nature and animals and one another. Thank You for the joy that life provides and for encouraging me to live life to the fullest because of the abundant life You supply. Thank You for honoring me and blessing me with the gift of life. Thank You for taking joy in my praise, gratitude, and experience of life in You.

Supplication

Jesus, prince of life, show me how to maximize the life You have given me so that I can expand the reach of Your glory while advancing Your kingdom on earth. As the psalmist prayed in Psalm 90:17, “Let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us; and confirm for us the work of our hands; yes, confirm the work of our hands.” Lord, life is a gift, but it has been given to me for a reason.
