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

“…pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil people, for not everyone has faith. But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you…”
(2 Thessalonians 3:2-3)

I need some of that strength, Jesus.

Right now.

Did I say, “some” of that strength?

Make that “a lot” of Your strength!

There are times when Satan’s attacks are relentless

day after day after day.

Without You, I’d never make it.

With You – in Your Strength –

I know I will!

Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“All kinds of animals, birds, reptiles and sea creatures are being tamed and have been tamed by mankind, but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.”
(James 3:7-8)

That explains a lot, Jesus.

I can’t control what someone else says.

Only You have that power.
Only You can make them speak up

or shut up.

I can’t even control what I say

without Your help.

I need help.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that his life may also be revealed in our mortal body.”
(2 Corinthians 4:10-11)

That explains a lot, Jesus!

Not the explanation I was hoping for
but the one I fully embrace

confident that You know better than I do.

Pray this Lazaroo with re-burning zeal:

“Anyone who…does not continue in the teaching of Christ…
(2 John 1:9)

I gave my life to You, Jesus

because You gave Your life for me.

I was determined to obey You from that moment forward.

But I haven’t.
I’ve sinned.
A lot.

I’ve confessed my sins.

I’ve forsaken them.

Only to pick them back up again.

I have no excuse – but You see it, LORD:

within the heart of my being
is a desire to continue in Your teaching.

Forgive me!
F
ill me!
Save me!

Pray this Lazaroo with catalytic dedication:

“…to see if you would…be obedient in everything.”
(2 Corinthians 2:9)

Everything.

That’s a lot to be obedient in, Jesus! 😉

I believe I’m obedient in most things…

but I get it –

that’s not the goal.
That’s not good enough.
That’s not what You want.
That’s not what You deserve.

Don’t let me cave in to the temptation to compare myself to others

pointing out where I’m strong and they’re weak
while ignoring where they’re strong

and I’m weak.
