Pray this Lazaroo in zealous love:

“That man is our close relative; he is one of our guardian-redeemers.”
(Ruth 2:20)

What an awesome gift You gave Your people, Jesus –

a guardian-redeemer

a close relative they could turn to for help –
someone willing and able to do extraordinary things
to rescue them from impossible circumstances.

You’re my guardian-redeemer!

With Your own life on the cross
You bought me back from the clutches of Satan.

I’m Yours for life!

There’s no one else
whose I’d rather be.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“The one who plants and the one who waters have one purpose, and they will each be rewarded according to their own labor. For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building.”
(1 Corinthians 3:8-9)

Doesn’t matter where I serve in Your Church, Jesus –

up front or behind the scenes –

our purpose is the same:

We’re serving You!

Since I’m Your field

make me productive!

Since I’m Your building

make me welcoming
for those who need shelter.

Pray this Lazaroo in instant obedience:

“The Israelites were subject to Eglon king of Moab for eighteen years. Again the Israelites cried out to the Lord, and he gave them a deliverer—Ehud, a left-handed man, the son of Gera the Benjamite.”
(Judges 3:14-15)

I don’t get it, Jesus.

Why did it take them so long to figure out
that You were the only one who could deliver them?

But as soon as I say that, it hits me:

You’re probably asking me the same question.

Pray this Lazaroo with transparent love:

“…the requirements of the law are written on their hearts, their consciences also bearing witness, and their thoughts sometimes accusing them and at other times even defending them. This will take place on the day when God judges people’s secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.”
(Romans 2:15-16)

Our secrets, Jesus…

all of them.

Accusing…defending.

If that day hasn’t yet arrived

I suspect some of us
have had a good taste of it already.

May all my secrets

be pleasing in Your sight!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“Now the Jordan is at flood stage all during harvest. Yet as soon as the priests who carried the ark reached the Jordan and their feet touched the water’s edge, the water from upstream stopped flowing. It piled up in a heap a great distance away…while the water flowing down to the…Dead Sea was completely cut off.”
(Joshua 3:15-16)

You did this for at least two reasons, Jesus:

1. To rescue your people
2. To show us forevermore that if You can do this…

You can do anything!

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, ‘Brothers, what shall we do?’ Peter replied, ‘Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.’”
(Acts 2:37-38)

Straightforward question…

straightforward answer, Jesus:

the gospel in a nutshell.

When people ask me what to do

may I be just that straightforward.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“Then the Lord said to me, ‘Do not harass the Moabites or provoke them to war, for I will not give you any part of their land. I have given Ar to the descendants of Lot as a possession.’”
(Deuteronomy 2:9)

Got it, Jesus.

You tell me who I can mess with and who I can’t.

If for any reason I think I can go it on my own

You make it clear I won’t succeed.

You’re the Boss.

Follow Jesus’ example as you pray this Lazaroo:

“What Jesus did in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs through which he revealed his glory…After this he went down to Capernaum with his mother and brothers and his disciples. There they stayed for a few days. When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.”
(John 2:11-13)

You went from working a miracle…

to loving Your family…

to preparing for Your next mission, Jesus.

I’d love to follow in Your footsteps…

but I might need a litle help with the miracles! 😉

Pray this Lazaroo in humble obedience:

“They are to take a blue cloth and cover the lampstand that is for light, together with its lamps, its wick trimmers and trays, and all its jars for the olive oil used to supply it. Then they are to wrap it and all its accessories in a covering of the durable leather and put it on a carrying frame.”
(Numbers 4:9-10)

Oh, the care You want us to take

with the things we use to worship You, Jesus!

in holy respect.

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful amazement:

“He has raised up a horn of salvation for us…to remember his holy covenant, the oath he swore to our father Abraham: to rescue us from the hand of our enemies, and to enable us to serve him without fear in holiness and righteousness before him all our days.”
(Luke 1:69, 73-75)

You keep Your promises, Jesus –

not just some of the time –

everytime.

which means –

though you have not yet kept Your greatest promises –

You most certainly will.
