Kyle Thompson // St. Patrick’s Breastplate: Through the strength of His descent for the judgment of Doom

We explore St. Patrick's Breastplate prayer, focusing on the line about Christ's return for final judgment and how this ancient Irish prayer provides strength for Christians facing spiritual battles.

• St. Patrick's prayer begins with "I rise today through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity"
• The prayer acknowledges Christ's baptism, crucifixion, resurrection, ascension and return for judgment
• Acts 17 explains God has appointed a day to judge the world through Christ
• 1 Thessalonians 4:16 describes Christ's descent with angelic command and God's trumpet
• Revelation 20 depicts the great white throne judgment where books are opened
• The prayer concludes by affirming Christ's presence in every direction and aspect of our lives
• Those whose names aren't written in the Lamb's book of life are compelled to give their lives to Christ
