Start Your Easter Morning with Prayer

Let’s begin with a simple powerful morning prayer:

“It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed, because his compassions fail not. They are new every morning: great is thy faithfulness.”


Why Easter Matters: The Message of Salvation

Easter is more than a celebration — it’s the foundation of our faith. Jesus died for our sins and rose again so we could be saved.

Romans 6:23 (KJV)
“For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

Because of Easter, we can pray the prayer of salvation and start new.

Lord Jesus, I believe You are the Son of God. I believe You died for my sins and rose again. I confess that I am a sinner. Please forgive me. I accept You as my Lord and Savior. Fill me with Your Spirit and help me follow You. Amen.”

Romans 10:9 (KJV)
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.”

This is a prayer to accept Jesus as Lord and Savior and begin a relationship with Him.


New Beginnings Through Christ
