Pray this Lazaroo with steely determination:

“…save others by snatching them from the fire…”
(Jude 1:23)

I’m thinking of three ways to save people, Jesus:

1. Encourage them to develop a Deep, Daily, Moment-by-Moment 1on1 relationship with You.

2. Warn them not to sin.

3. Go after them and rescue them when they’re steeped in wrongdoing.

That last is the hardest.

People who are up to their ears in evil seldom want to hear about You.

But because You command me to do it

I will!

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them.”
(Luke 2:16-18)

That’s what You want me to do, isn’t it, Jesus?

Spread the word concerning what has been told me about You

in Your holy Word

and in my own Deep, Daily, Moment-by-Moment

1on1 relationship with You.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“…the child grew and became strong in spirit; and he lived in the wilderness until he appeared publicly to Israel.”
(Luke 1:80)

Just like John the Baptist, Jesus

I want to grow in You!
I want to become strong in spirit!

In short, I want to become everything You’ve created me to be!

But that means I have to deliberately carve out time to do what he did

and get away for Deep, Daily, Moment-by-Moment
1on1 relationship with You.

Pray this Lazaroo in ardent love:

“Therefore, since we have such a hope, we are very bold. We are not like Moses, who would put a veil over his face to prevent the Israelites from seeing the end of what was passing away.”
(2 Corinthians 3:12-13)

Give me the boldness of Paul, Jesus!

Like Moses, I don’t want Your glory to fade from my face.

May I walk in such Deep, Daily, Moment-by-Moment, 1on1 relationship with You

that all who see me
will come to know You!

Pray this Lazaroo all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“Cursed is the ground because of you…It will produce thorns and thistles for you, and you will eat the plants of the field. By the sweat of your brow you will eat your food until you return to the ground, since from it you were taken; for dust you are and to dust you will return.”
(Genesis 3:18-19)

Okay. Got it.

But thanks to my ever-deeper 1on1 relationship with You, Jesus

to dust my Spirit will never return!

Pray this Lazaroo in 2022 determination:

“Where now is the lions’ den, the place where they fed their young…”
(Nahum 2:11)

The place where we feed our young

is sacred, Jesus.

But there’s more than one way to feed our little ones.

Physical food is important
but not nearly as important as spiritual food.

The place where the next generation learns about You

can either make them
or ruin them.

It’s my job to be certain

that what they’re taught
brings them into deep, daily, moment-by-moment
1on1 relationship with You.

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“You foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you?”
(Galatians 3:1)

Well, there’s no question about that, is there, Jesus?

There’s only one who bewitches Your dearly-loved people:

the deceiver behind every deception
the head witch himself: Satan.

To my shame and disgrace

he’s succeeded in bewitching me a few times.

But thanks be to You, O LORD!

You rescued me from his clutches!

May I remain in deep, daily, moment-by-moment

1on1 relationship with You

so he’ll never bamboozle me again.

Cherish it! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“May our Lord Jesus Christ himself…”
(2 Thessalonians 2:16)

That’s the beauty of it, Jesus.

You’re not sequestering Yourself in heaven
away from all the riff-raff, distant and aloof.

You created me.
You know me intimately.
You care about me and every aspect of my life.

You live in me in the Person of the Holy Spirit!

You’ll never leave me nor forsake me.

It is my unspeakably awesome privilege

to enjoy deep, daily, moment-by-moment
1on1 relationship with You.

Pray this Lazaroo in heartfelt trust:

“Their condemnation has long been hanging over them…”
(2 Peter 2:3)

What a terrifying place to be in, Jesus!

…for those who are spiritually aware.

Of course, if I’m spiritually aware, I won’t land in such a place.

It’s only when I’m deaf, blind and dumb to spiritual reality

that I repeatedly make the kinds of decisions
that destine me for condemnation.

O God, my Redeemer and Protector:

May I ever remain
in Deep, Daily, Moment-by-Moment
1on1 relationship with You!

Pray this Lazaroo with purified purpose:

Let love and faithfulness never leave you…Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man.”
(Proverbs 3:3-4)

I need Your favor, Jesus. Desperately.

Without it, I won’t survive, let alone thrive.

I don’t know how others make it without a deep, daily, moment-by-moment 1on1 relationship with You

but I know I can’t.

Do I want a good reputation among others? Yes.

But the only approval I absolutely have to have

is Yours.
