Sharpen your awareness, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…the Jews…killed the Lord Jesus…”
(1 Thessalonians 2:14-15)

I can’t begin to imagine how much that hurt, Jesus!

…to be hated so fiercely by Your own people.

But not all of them demanded that You be crucified.

Your disciples were Jews.

In the early days, most of Your followers were Jews.

It was the Jewish leaders who deserve most of the blame.

Though not even all of them.

Never let me paint my accusations

with too broad a brush.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Now I rejoice…”
(Colossians 1:24)

Being able to rejoice in something good is wonderful, Jesus!

But that word, “Now” gives me pause.

Maybe Paul didn’t mean it how it sounds…

but I might infer that only because He liked what he was seeing
could he now begin to rejoice.

But by faith –

You want me to rejoice in You and what You’re doing
every day of my life – at all times!

whether I like what’s happening
or not.

Stuff to check as you pray this Lazaroo:

“’What!’ exclaimed the king of Israel. ‘Has the Lord called us three kings together only to deliver us into the hands of Moab?’”
(2 Kings 3:10)

They had been marching through the desert for a week, Jesus. Now they were out of water.

Faced with this terrifying development
the King of Israel blames You.

Help me go to school:

1. Make sure I get my marching orders from You.

2. If I have, trust You to supply everything I need.

Pray this Lazaroo…in awe:

“…united with Christ…”
(Philippians 2:1)

What a mind-blowing thought, Jesus!

But it’s more than a thought.
It’s reality.

This is my current status:

I’m united with You!

I’m in You
You’re in me.

You know everything I’m thinking, what I’m saying and doing.

Thanks to the Indwelling Holy Spirit
I have Your mind on every matter I need to address.

You and I are bound together –

not just for the duration of my life on this earth
but forever.

Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“…on the throne of my father David…”
(1 Kings 2:24)

Wow. For Solomon to be able to say that, Jesus…

Pretty special.
Pretty exclusive.

But about the time I start feeling like a commoner –

like an outsider looking in…

I remember Your promise:

If I stick with You all the way to the end
I will be invited to sit with You on Your throne!

I will reign with You forever!

Thank You.
That’s all the motivation I need!

Fully open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…called, ‘uncircumcised’ by those who call themselves ‘the circumcision’…”
(Ephesians 2:11)

There’s something about being one of the “haves,” Jesus

that Satan can twist to make us want to exclude

the “have nots.”

But that’s not who You Are!

You’ve called us who have so much
to be generous with those who have so little.

You despise the exclusive clique mentality!

You urge us to include everyone

who trusts and obeys You.

Use me
to lift others up!
