Open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich; and white clothes to wear, so you can cover your shameful nakedness; and salve to put on your eyes, so you can see. Those whom I love I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent.”
(Revelation 3:18-19)

Thank You for loving me that much, Jesus!

Forgive me for not being grateful at the time.

I’m ashamed to admit that It’s only when I look back

that I can feel the love.

You could have abandoned me in my sin

but You didn’t!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“All the people of my town know that you are a woman of noble character.”
(Ruth 3:11)

Man or woman, Jesus…

do all the people of my town know that about me?

If so, please remind me not to become complacent.
Help me keep living up to my reputation!

If my character is noble but they don’t know

all that matters is that You know.

If my character is not noble, then whether or not they know

You know.

I repent!

Please help me become
everything You’ve created me to be!

Pray this Lazaroo with heartfelt passion:

“You say, ‘I am rich; I have acquired wealth and do not need a thing.’ But you do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. I counsel you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, so you can become rich…”
(Revelation 3:17-18)

I know I’m not “rich,” Jesus –

not the way the church of Laodicea claimed to be.

Nevertheless, I fully embrace Your counsel to them:

Sell me Your gold refined in the fire –

so I can become rich
in those ways only You desire!

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

“Teach slaves to be subject to their masters in everything, to try to please them, not to talk back to them, and not to steal from them, but to show that they can be fully trusted…”
(Titus 2:9-10)

I’m Your slave, Jesus!

I desperately want to show you and others
that I’m trustworthy.

But my problem is that sometimes

I haven’t been.

I need Your help to become everything You’ve created me to be!

Please give me another chance.

Stand firm! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…when I could stand it no longer, I sent to find out about your faith. I was afraid that in some way the tempter had tempted you and that our labors might have been in vain.”
(1 Thessalonians 3:5)

For someone who devotes their life to invest in others, Jesus

that has to be one of the most terrifying fears.

Defeat the tempter!
Send him back in utter failure!

May Your people become everything You’ve created us to be.

Pray this Lazaroo in absolute awe:

“And now, my daughter, don’t be afraid. I will do for you all you ask.”
(Ruth 3:11)

Most of the people in this world have never heard such words, Jesus.

Ruth wouldn’t have heard them either
if You had not put them in Boaz’s mouth.

It was Your Will to bring the two of them together

to become Your ancestors through David

all the way down to Your birth in Bethlehem.

There is no one like You.

Not even close.

Pray this Lazaroo in obedient trust:

“Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of the heart. At that time each will receive their praise from God.
(1 Corinthians 4:5)

Even when I obey and follow You with all my heart, Jesus

my praise may not come now.

I need to be okay with that.

By faith, help me fix my eyes on my reward in heaven.

Please don’t let me become discouraged

when it all blows up in my face on earth.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“…whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world held accountable to God. Therefore no one will be declared righteous in God’s sight by the works of the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of our sin.”
(Romans 3:19-20)

Well, I’m certainly conscious of mine, Jesus.

My sins stare me in the face.
I live with their consequences.

But Hallelujah!

Through my faith in Your death and resurrection
I’m no longer under the law!

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“I will send my messenger, who will prepare the way before me. Then suddenly the Lord you are seeking will come to his temple; the messenger of the covenant, whom you desire, will come,” says the Lord Almighty.”
(Malachi 3:1)

All those years, decades, centuries and millennia of waiting, Jesus

and then suddenly!
it happened.

May I never become impatient with Your timing.

I know.

Easier prayer to pray
than in faith to obey.

But this I also know:

You always do what’s best.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“’Who are you?’ he asked. ‘I am your servant Ruth,’ she said. ‘Spread the corner of your garment over me, since you are a guardian-redeemer of our family.’”
(Ruth 3:9)

Ruth took a huge chance, Jesus.

She entered the place where women never went

to offer herself to become the wife
of a man who hadn’t asked her to marry him.

But this was Your doing!

When You tell me to do something unusual or impossible

rules no longer apply.
