God of life,
your Spirit raised Jesus from dead.
Your Spirit inspired the prophets and writers of Scripture.
Your Spirit draws us to Christ
and helps us to acknowledge him as Lord.Â
We ask that you will send your Spirit now
to give us deeper insight, encouragement, faith, and hope
through the proclamation of the Easter gospel. Amen.

At Sojourn, we often use Jeremy Quillo’s “We Are Listening,” from Before the Throne, as a Prayer For Illumination (chord sheet and mp3 available on our Before the Throne page).
