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.

Pray this Lazaroo with determined faith:

“The priest is to take a handful of the finest flour and some olive oil, together with all the incense on the grain offering, and burn the memorial portion on the altar as an aroma pleasing to the Lord…For all generations to come it is his perpetual share…Whatever touches them will become holy.”
(Leviticus 6:15, 18)

This is my prayer, Jesus…

that whoever touches my life will be pointed to You –

the only one who can make them holy!

Pray this Lazaroo in humble gratitude.

“I will send my messenger, who will prepare the way before me. Then suddenly the Lord you are seeking will come to his temple…”
(Malachi 3:1)

You told us the name of that messenger, Jesus:

John the Baptist.

You Yourself are the Lord they were seeking who came to Your temple.

Though You came to Your own
they didn’t believe in You.

But there were some who believed in You.

To this day, all who do
have become Yours –

heart, mind, body and soul.

Pray this Lazaroo with holy passion:

“Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure…Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain.”
(Philippians 2:14-16)

It’s not the stuff I build that lays up heavenly treasure, is it, Jesus?

It’s the people You work through me to build

who are living Your overcoming life!

Pray this Lazaroo in total repentance:

“Jews and Gentiles alike are all under the power of sin. As it is written: ‘There is no one righteous, not even one; there is no one who understands; there is no one who seeks God. All have turned away, they have together become worthless; there is no one who does good, not even one.’”
(Romans 3:9-12)

This breaks my heart, Jesus!

I know it breaks Yours.

Somehow, someway…

through the infilling power of Your Holy Spirit
may this no longer be true of me.

Pray this Lazaroo with passionate intent:

“Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, ‘children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.’ Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life.”
(Philippians 2:14-16)

If I want to shine like a star in this darkened world, Jesus

I’ve got to stop my grumbling and arguing.

The only chance I have to do that

is to hold firmly to Your Word of life!

Pray this Lazaroo in humble surrender:

“Here is a trustworthy saying: Whoever aspires to be an overseer desires a noble task. He must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited and fall under the same judgment as the devil.”
(1 Timothy 3:1,6)

This is good advice for overseers, Jesus.

It’s also an eye-opening insight into what happened with Satan.

You entrusted him with amazing gifts
but he deliberately ignored the fact

that You were the one
who gave them to him.
