Pray this Lazaroo in humble adulation:

“I ask you, therefore, not to be discouraged because of my sufferings for you, which are your glory.”
(Ephesians 3:13)

It’s hard not to be discouraged by suffering, Jesus

especially when it’s happening to me, personally.

But that wasn’t why Paul was suffering.

He was suffering for others!

O God.

Grow me up in my faith.
Give me Paul’s compassion for others!

Correction: That’s not Paul’s compassion.

That kind of compassion
comes straight from You

proven 2,000 years ago
on the cross.

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“He will be called a Nazarene.”
(Matthew 2:23)

To us all these years later, that sounds like a compliment, Jesus.

Thousands of churches worldwide proudly bear that name.

But that wasn’t the case 2,000 years ago.

When Philip told Nathanael that’s what you were called
Nathanael’s reaction says it all:

“Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?”

But Philip’s response was perfect:

“Come and see.”

When I run into a doubter

that’s still the perfect response.
You never disappoint.

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“…we are…created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”
(Ephesians 2:10)

When I really begin to get hold of this truth, Jesus

it’s an amazing feeling.

You could have set me on planet earth 5,000 years ago.
You could have waited to bring me here 1,000 years from now.

But You didn’t

because You’ve got a whole list of things to accomplish through me

and my time to do them is now.

Pray this Lazaroo…in awe:

“…the foundations of the earth are the LORD’s; upon them he has set the world.”
(1 Samuel 2:8)

The world rests upon the foundations of Your unseen power, Jesus –

but not upon the backs of elephants
a huge serpent or a giant turtle

as occurs in the mythologies of Hindu, Chinese and indigenous American peoples.

More than 4,000 years ago You proclaimed through Job:

“He spreads out the northern skies over empty space;
he suspends the earth over nothing.”

Pray this Lazaroo in unshakable faith:

“…my spirit rejoices in God my Savior…”
(Luke 1:47)

So does mine, Jesus!

2,000 years ago Your followers thought all was lost
because they saw You crucified, dead, buried.

This in spite of the fact that You told them in advance this would happen
and that on the third day You would be raised from the dead.

Then they saw You, ate with You, touched You

and believed!

I’ve done none of those things…yet.

But by faith

I will.
