Friday, September 13, 2019

 

Take a clear-eyed look, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…children who do not yet know good from bad…”
(Deuteronomy 1:39)

Those have to be some pretty young kids, Jesus

because most little ones catch on awfully quick.

Oh, they may not understand why something is good or bad

but even as babies they can immediately tell
when their mothers and fathers are pleased or displeased.

You’ve made it clear:

A child’s character is revealed
by what they do.

So is mine.
God help me, so is mine.

Pray this Lazaroo in excited obedience:

“Phillip found Nathanael and told him…”
(John 1:45)

All it took was one encounter with You, Jesus…

and Phillip had to go tell somebody!

How many encounters have I had with You?

How many times have You intervened in my life to help me?

And what about the most important, life-changing time of all –

when You gave me the gift of faith to believe in You
which changed my destiny from hell…to heaven?

I’ve gotta go tell somebody!

Pray this Lazaroo in deep appreciation:

“…Moses and Aaron…”
(Numbers 3:39)

They were quite a team, Jesus!

You spoke to Moses

who spoke to Aaron

who spoke to the people.

Moses felt inadequate

so You sent him Aaron.

I, too, feel inadequate.

Nor is it merely a feeling.
It’s the truth.

Who will You send to me?

Oh. Right.

I’m surrounded by these precious, sent people!

And if in the future I need anyone else

in Your perfect way and time

they will appear.

Pray this Lazaroo in holy awareness:

“He has performed mighty deeds with his arm…”
(Luke 1:51)

Mighty deeds are Your specialty, Jesus.

Praise be to Your glorious Name!

But that’s not the phrase that catches my eye.

Your mom said You performed them with Your arm –
and that’s before she had seen You work any miracle.

She was referring to Your heavenly Father.

Strictly speaking, God is Spirit. He has no arms.

But You were His arm on this earth for 33 years

as now…am I.

Pray this Lazaroo in everlasting gratitude:

“…he will be forgiven.”
(Leviticus 4:26)

Are there any sweeter words in any language, Jesus?

Maybe…but not many.

I know my sins.

Not all of them, certainly.
There are too many to keep count.

But some of those I do remember haunt me.

I wish I had never committed them.
In fact, I can’t think of a single sin I don’t regret.

But O Jesus!

I’m stunned!

Because of my faith in You
You’ve forgiven all my sins!

Forever!

Pray this Lazaroo in heart-thumping anticipation:

“…the people heard that he had come…”
(Mark 2:1)

When You show up, Jesus

word gets around.

You stir things up wherever You go.

Sometimes by the miracles you perform.
Sometimes by the love You show.
Sometimes by the sheer force of Your Presence.

O God! May I dare to ask?

Show up in me!

When I walk into the room

may people be able to see through me

all the way to You, living, healing, being Yourself

in me.

Saturday, September 7, 2019

 

Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“The LORD…appeared to me…”
(Exodus 3:16)

I’d give anything for You to appear to me, Jesus.

But it’s okay if You don’t.
I know I’m not worthy.

It’s more than that, though, isn’t it?

Most people couldn’t handle it.

Besides – other than the absolute thrill –

what would be the point?

In the Bible I already have Your Word

portions of which I’m still struggling to obey.

On top of which…

sooner than I imagine…

I’ll see You in heaven.

Pray this Lazaroo in marveling gratitude:

“…he went and lived in a town called Nazareth.”
(Matthew 2:23)

Your stepdad had no idea he was fulfilling Scripture, did he, Jesus?

He just picked out the town that seemed to be a safer place to live.

How many times do I unknowingly do the same thing with my choices –

the places I live
the vehicles I drive
the relationships I enjoy
the work I do?

Absolutely all of it fits perfectly –

into Your plan for the ages.

Pray this Lazaroo in simple awareness:

“I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.”
(Genesis 3:10)

The thing is, Jesus

I’m always naked before You.

You know my every thought
see my every action
hear my every word.

You know what I’m going to think, say and do

before I do it.

That day in the garden Adam and Eve hid in vain.

There’s no hiding from You!

My goal?

Think, speak and act with such purity

that I have nothing to hide.
