O Key of David, opening the gates of God’s eternal Kingdom: come and free the prisoners of darkness!
O Jesus, you hold the key
that will unlock my constricted heart.
It gives me great hope
that Mary said yes to you and your plan.
She was filled with the Spirit
and put aside her own doubts.
I know you are ready to answer my prayers,
ease my doubts and calm my fears.
Sometimes I don’t hear your messengers
because they aren’t what I expect.
They aren’t wearing wings or halos
but are the people standing in front of me.
How many times have I not listened?
How often have I balked at your messages
and your messengers?
Fill me with the light of your Spirit
and enter, in all your glory
into my life.
Let me rejoice!
Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel
Shall come to thee, O Israel!
Spend some time reflecting on the things in your life that “chain” you down that you wish Jesus to remove. Invite the Spirit to convict us only in a manner that invites healing. Christ is the Key who can free us from every prison and all forms of darkness
