Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“Although it is true that I am a guardian-redeemer of our family, there is another who is more closely related than I.”
(Ruth 3:12)

Naomi had it all worked out for her widowed daughter-in-law, Jesus.

Boaz would marry Ruth and give Naomi grandbabies.

Well, in fact, that’s exactly what happened!

Eventually.

But first, they had to face a huge, unexpected roadblock.

May I never fear the roadblocks Satan sets up in my life, Father.

Because nothing and nobody
can thwart Your Will!

Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I have much to write to you…”
(2 John 1:12)

I believe it, Jesus.

Of all Your disciples,
John seems to be the one closest to You.

At least He felt that way.

Again and again he called himself:

“…the disciple Jesus loved.”

Of course, You love the world.

You love all those who’ve put their faith in You
although a lot of them don’t feel Your love like John did.

However, I sure would like to.

Pray this Lazaroo in renewed dedication:

“When we put bits into the mouths of horses to make them obey us, we can turn the whole animal. Or take ships as an example. Although they are so large and are driven by strong winds, they are steered by a very small rudder wherever the pilot wants to go.”
(James 3:3-4)

You’re talking about my tongue, Jesus.

It’s a tiny part of me

but because it’s like the bit in a horse’s mouth
or the rudder on a huge ship

I surrender my tongue to You!

Be humbly forewarned, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…those who follow the corrupt desire of the flesh and despise authority. Bold and arrogant, they are not afraid to heap abuse on celestial beings; yet even angels, although they are stronger and more powerful, do not heap abuse on such beings when bringing judgment on them from the Lord.”
(2 Peter 2:10-11)

What a lesson, Jesus!

Even though You command me to resist the demonic work
of those powerful angels who followed Satan

because You created them
I’m to treat them with respect

as I do my earth-bound enemies.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Although I am less than the least of all the Lord’s people, this grace was given me: to preach to the Gentiles the boundless riches of Christ…”
(Ephesians 3:8)

And what a grace-filed gift it is, Jesus –

to tell others about You.

Not just to those who’ve already heard

but to those who’ve never heard Your Name one time!

Most of us can’t go to those faraway places

but we can give sacrificially to You
and help those who can!

Pray this Lazaroo in tender love:

“…also to Apphia our sister…”
(Philemon 1:2)

Who is this woman Apphia, Jesus?

Although she was obviously
someone of standing and influence
a key person in the church

Paul doesn’t say –

except to call her his sister.

Not his biological sister.
His sister because of their mutual faith in You.

For all of us who trust You as our LORD and Savior

are family –
brothers and sisters under You
our God and Father.

And one day in heaven…

I’ll get to meet my sister Apphia!

Pray this Lazaroo in utter awe:

“’How do you know me?’ Nathanael asked. Jesus answered, ‘I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you.’”
(John 1:48)

Boom.

Just like that, Jesus –
You proved who You Are to Nathanael.

You don’t do that every time.

Often, You cut back on the miracles
revealing Yourself more subtly

though – for those seeking You with all their hearts –
no less convincingly.

I’m one who seeks You with all my heart!

And I’m convinced.
