Tuesday, December 22, 2020

 

Pray this Lazaroo with fierce determination:

“Therefore the Lord was very angry with Israel and said, ‘Because this nation has violated the covenant I ordained for their ancestors and has not listened to me, I will no longer drive out before them any of the nations Joshua left when he died.’”
(Judges 2:20-21)

That explains some things, Jesus –

about what happened to Israel
and what could happen to me.

May I keep Your covenant of love and listen to You!

so that You drive out every enemy
Satan sends against me.

Pray this Lazaroo in chastened love:

“Now we know that God’s judgment against those who do such things is based on truth. So when you, a mere human being, pass judgment on them and yet do the same things, do you think you will escape God’s judgment?”
(Romans 2:2-3)

It’s not that I sometimes blow it and have to repent, Jesus.

It’s when I harshly judge others who do the same things.

That’s what really upsets you.

I’m sorry.
Please help me stop doing that!

Pray this Lazaroo filled with enormous comfort:

“When you see the ark…follow it. Then you will know which way to go, since you have never been this way before.”
(Joshua 3:3-4)

Sometimes I wish I had a visible ark to follow, Jesus

so I’d know which way to go
since I’ve never been this way before.

But I have something better!

I have You, Holy Spirit!

You’re here, inside me.

If I truly listen for Your inner prompting

I’ll know my next step

which is all I need to know.

(Acts 2:25)

Next time I’m in a fight for my goals, my relationships, my very life

I’m imagining You there at my right hand, Jesus.

Except it’s not my imagination.

It‘s real.
You’ll actually be there.

Let me rephrase that:

You’re here.
At my right hand.

Now.

David is right:

I will not be shaken!

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“…every one of you put on his weapons, thinking it easy to go up into the hill country. But the Lord said to me, ‘Tell them, “Do not go up and fight, because I will not be with you. You will be defeated by your enemies.”’”
(Deuteronomy 1:41-42)

Oh, how important it is to check with You first, Jesus!

Haven’t I learned enough yet
about the sin of presumption?

Do I really need to keep going off half-cocked, totally oblivious?

Pray this Lazaroo in utter awe:

“’How do you know me?’ Nathanael asked. Jesus answered, ‘I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you.’”
(John 1:48)

Boom.

Just like that, Jesus –
You proved who You Are to Nathanael.

You don’t do that every time.

Often, You cut back on the miracles
revealing Yourself more subtly

though – for those seeking You with all their hearts –
no less convincingly.

I’m one who seeks You with all my heart!

And I’m convinced.

Wednesday, December 16, 2020

 

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“So Moses counted all the firstborn of the Israelites, as the Lord commanded him.”
(Numbers 3:42)

Is that what You liked most about Moses, Jesus?

He did what You commanded him.

Is that true of me?

Do I do what You command me?

Yes.
Most of the time.

But that’s not good enough, is it?

It wasn’t for Moses.

The one time he didn’t do what You told him
it cost him the Promised Land.

From now on, LORD:

I’m shooting for 100%.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“When it was time for Elizabeth to have her baby, she gave birth to a son.”
(Luke 1:57)

The miracle baby, Jesus!

John the Baptist – born to an elderly couple who couldn’t have children.

“When it was time,” indeed.

You made them wait that long to have this special child
because he would be the one to introduce You to the world:

as the Lamb of God.

Once he accomplished his purpose, he died.
His time came and went.

As will mine.

Pray this Lazaroo in vivid recall:

“Then the priest is to take some of the blood with his finger and put it on the horns of the altar of burnt offering and pour out the rest of the blood at the base of the altar.”
(Leviticus 4:30)

You made him use his finger to touch the blood of this goat, Jesus!

He probably didn’t want to
but that made it personal.

May this remind me of how achingly personal it got for You

for me

on the cross.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, ‘Son, your sins are forgiven.’”
(Mark 2:5)

Forgiveness wasn’t what he came for, Jesus…

but it was what he needed.

He was focused on physical healing.

But first things first.

First I have to get right with You.
Then I can ask for Your healing, blessing, guidance.

I want what I want when I want it.

But You’re far more concerned about what You know that I need

when I need it.
