Pray this Lazaroo with full-on ardor:

“Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim anything for ourselves, but our competence comes from God. He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.”
(2 Corinthians 3:5-6)

I do long to obey You right down to the letter of the law, Jesus!

But I can’t.

Thank You, thank You, Thank You

for Your new, loving, mercy-drenched covenant

of grace.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“Her mother-in-law asked her, ‘Where did you glean today? Where did you work? Blessed be the man who took notice of you! Then Ruth told her mother-in-law about the one at whose place she had been working. ‘The name of the man I worked with today is Boaz,’ she said. ‘The Lord bless him!’ Naomi said to her daughter-in-law.”
(Ruth 2:19-20)

Totally orchestrated by You, Jesus –

ancestors of Mary and Joseph…

and You!

Gotta love Grandpa Boaz and Grandma Ruth!

Pray this Lazaroo with growing anticipation:

“You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere humans? For when one says, ‘I follow Paul,’ and another, ‘I follow Apollos,’ are you not mere human beings?”
(1 Corinthians 3:3-4)

I can’t stop being human, Jesus.

But because of You living in me

I no longer have to be
merely human!

And I won’t be…

so long as the only One I’m truly following

is You.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“But when they cried out to the Lord, he raised up for them a deliverer, Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, who saved them. The Spirit of the Lord came on him, so that he became Israel’s judge…So the land had peace for forty years, until Othniel son of Kenaz died.”
(Judges 3:9-11)

It takes a leader, doesn’t it, Jesus?

One who is totally committed to You.

Raise up for us those leaders, Father!

Oh, how we need them.

Pray this Lazaroo in humble gratitude:

“All who sin apart from the law will also perish apart from the law, and all who sin under the law will be judged by the law. For it is not those who hear the law who are righteous in God’s sight, but it is those who obey the law who will be declared righteous.
(Romans 2:12-13)

I’m saved by Your gift of faith, Jesus

not by what I do or don’t do.

But evidence that I’ve received your gift of faith

is demonstrated by what I do

and don’t do.
