Top 10 Prayers of the New Testament #1

Welcome to Gospel Rant!
Watch me also on DrBillSenyard YouTube channel.
This, in my opinion, is the #1 prayer of not only the New Testament, but both testaments. It was among the final words of Jesus to the Apostle John, on the last page of the Bible, and he commands us to pray this.
We are standing at the edge of the last page of the last book in the entire revelation of God.
Ink drying.
History trembling.
Heaven leans close.
And here, at the very end of everything written—
we hear a voice.
Not an angel.
Not a prophet.
Not a rumor of hope.
Jesus.
“Yes. I am coming soon.”
Come Lord Jesus, Come.
My Top NT Prayer.
We will see what you think.

We're at the number one prayer of my top ten list, the number one prayer in the New Testament, and it might be the number one prayer in the entire Bible. It was among the final words of Jesus to the apostle John on the last page of the Bible, and he commands us to pray this. Okay, So we're standing at the last page of the last book of the entire revelation of God. Inks still drying, history trembling, Heaven's leading close, and here, at the very end of everything written, we hear his voice, not an angel, not a prophet, not a rumor of hope. Jesus. Yes, he says, I'm coming soon. Come Lord, Jesus Come. That's my top New Testament prayer, my New Testament prayer number one.

00:01:50
Speaker 2: I want to get.
00:01:51
Speaker 1: Right into top ten number one. After this brief word from our sponsors, we'll be right back. I Jesus have sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David and the Bright Morning Star Revelation twenty two sixteen. The Root, the offspring, the Bright morning Star, the one who stepped into dust and walked out of a grave, and the church his bride still breathing in the in between, and the church answers, Amen, Come, Lord Jesus.
00:02:30
Speaker 2: This is the prayer that closes the Bible.
00:02:32
Speaker 1: It should be the prayer that opens our mornings. The spirit of the bride say, Come Jesus. The spirit and the wife of the lamb, the church, the composite body of Jesus say says to Jesus. Come. Everyone who hears this must also say come. Whoever is thirsty must come and accept the water that gives life. Revelation twenty two seventeen. The spirit whispers it in hospital rooms, the bride cries that, at gravesides. The tired say it, The betrayed say it, The persecuted say that. The overlooked saith, the addicted say at. The lonely say it under their pillows at two am. Come, Lord Jesus. It's not a theory. It's not metaphors. It's not just comfort language. Come Come as king comes, fire comes mercy with scars in your hands. So when do we pray, Come, Lord Jesus, Come well when the diagnosis lands like thunder, Come when children are stolen and innocence is traded. Come when someone close to you betrays you, gossips bullies, robs undermines you with untruths and rumors. Come Lord Jesus, when wars redraw borders in blood. Come Lord Jesus. When lies win elections, when greed wins boardrooms, when cruelty wins comment sections. Come Lord Jesus, when your mind will not be quiet, when shame hisses, when fear stalks, when you are too tired to explain why you are too tired, Come Lord Jesus, when you open the news and close it again, when you stand at a grave, when you stare at the ceiling, when you cannot imagine doing tomorrow, Come Lord Jesus, Come, what are we longing for? We're longing for a world where tears are not managed, but wiped away, Where grief is not coped with but undone. When where cancer is a forgotten word, where dementia does not steal names, where depression does not swallow light, where violence has dou vocabulary. We're longing for the day when twenty four hour news cycles fall silent because there's nothing left to fix or to say, when politics are unnecessary, when borders are meaningless, when every tribe and tongue stands shoulder and shoulder with Jesus, not tolerated, not rank, but radiant. We're longing for the end of pretending, the end of proving, the end of performing, the end of wondering if we're enough. No more gender dysphorior, No more dating sites, no more marriage dysfunctions, No more worries about finances, taxes, four oh one caves. No more worries about poor harvest or the price of pork, No more worries about global warming, no more marvel sequels. Amen. So what happens when he does come? And the prayers answered? Well, when he comes, faith becomes sight, hope becomes touch, and love, Oh, love is no longer filtered through our insecurities and fortresses and fears, our traumas, our defenses, our memories. And we will know, not vaguely, not partially, not cautiously, we will know the height with linked depth. We will know we were wanted all along. Come, Lord Jesus, Come. So what does this prayer tell us about God? Odd sovereignty ends history him self? Jesus is rude offspring, morning Star promises I'm coming soon, inviting oh, a unified response from the spirited bride us right, he commands this raw ache prayer at Revelations close, showing eagerness for our longing amid brokenness, and a divine response promises tears wipes grief, undone, the full knowing God of Love's dimension, No more pretense, just radiant tribes in eternal embrace. What does this prayer say about us?
00:06:37
Speaker 2: Ah?
00:06:38
Speaker 1: We live with deep human aches.
00:06:41
Speaker 2: We're tired, betrayed, we grieve, we cry.
00:06:47
Speaker 1: Come across diagnoses, betrayals, wars, loneliness, you know, just hunger. We're wired for restoration, the end of pain, the end of performance division. We're wired to have sight, not just faith. We're wired to have unfiltered love. So here's a simple prayer. There's no theological exams attached to this prayer, right, It's got to be so simple. No polished language, no spiritual resume, Come as you are, no minimum holiness score, just ache, just hunger, just courage to say, through.
00:07:21
Speaker 2: Tears or through gritted teeth, here it.
00:07:24
Speaker 1: Is, Come Lord Jesus. Now that would be good. Until that day we keep breathing it, we keep hoping it, and we keep saying it together. Yeah.
00:07:36
Speaker 2: Oh well, I hope you've enjoyed this series.
00:07:39
Speaker 1: Here's one of the discussion questions in my book Good Enough Prayer in this chapter longing for tears wiped and no more pretending proving performing? What forgotten words? Cancer, dysfunction, fear haunt you? How does faith become sight? Reframe today's exhaustion in your soul?
00:08:02
Speaker 2: So what's next? I'm gonna let you know after this brieferred from our sponsors. What's next?
00:08:10
Speaker 1: Well, as I mentioned, I'm finishing up a book that's going to include all the top twenty prayers Old a New Testament sometime later this year Goodnow Prayer. Email me at Bill at gospeldashapp dot com if you want to know when is going to be released. It's great for devotions and groups discussion questions the rest of the summer. I'm so excited about this. We're going to look at a provocative, troubling book of the Old Testament. So imagine a nation collapsing, violence spreading, civil war erupting over and over. There's polarizations, family betray each other, faith disappears, that everyone insists they are still God's people, but of judges. The collapse didn't begin with war. It began with something much quieter, something more relevant, to us today. All right, it began this way. Throughout the entire Higher Book, Israel never goes to Shiloh. I know I'll have to explain that, but just here for now, they don't even go Once the summer series will be through the Book of Judges. We're gonna use a title from a hit TV show a decade or so back. I'm calling it breaking badly. They never went to Shiloh. Oh, my gosh, relevant for our times, not just because we're still doing, you know, everything our heart desires. But there's something else that went on that comes before that that's most often overlooked. One of the Judges, maybe the judges core morals.
00:09:35
Speaker 2: I think it is.
00:09:36
Speaker 1: You'll see what I mean. So we'll begin that next time on Gospel Rant and Doctor Bill send your YouTube channel right so we'll see you. Then tell people the Book of Judges is coming breaking badly, but for now, take card Child of God.
