Pray this Lazaroo with consistent faith:

“Then the Lord was jealous for his land and took pity on his people. The Lord replied to them: ‘I am sending you grain, new wine and olive oil, enough to satisfy you fully; never again will I make you an object of scorn to the nations.’”
(Joel 2:18-19)

That’s Your heart, Jesus!

When we repent, You bless us!

But when we return to our wicked ways – as Your people did –

You reluctantly withdraw Your blessings

knowing only then will we return to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Hear this, you priests! Pay attention, you Israelites! Listen, royal house! This judgment is against you: You have been a snare at Mizpah, a net spread out on Tabor. The rebels are knee-deep in slaughter. I will discipline all of them.”
(Hosea 5:1-2)

What we think is hidden, Jesus

isn’t.

What we think we do in secret

is fully known by You.

So when we hide things and do them in secret

may they only be good and not evil

to be showered with blessings from above!

Pray this Lazaroo in humble anticipation:

“…you have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes. They will walk with me, dressed in white, for they are worthy. The one who is victorious will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out the name of that person from the book of life…”
(Revelation 3:4-5)

Unlike those in Sardis, Jesus…

I’ve soiled my clothes.
I’ve sinned.

But I’ve cried out to You!

I’ve confessed, repented
put all my trust in You.

Great God of mercy:

Clothe me in white!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“…the king placed Daniel in a high position and lavished many gifts on him. He made him ruler over the entire province of Babylon and placed him in charge of all its wise men…at Daniel’s request the king appointed Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego administrators over the province of Babylon…”
(Daniel 2:48-49)

You’re the one who made the king promote Daniel, Jesus.

Then You laid it on Daniel’s heart
to take his fellow Jews along for the ride.

Take me wherever You desire, LORD!

even if You have to move heaven and earth to do it.

Beg God for patience, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait…”
(Jude 1:21)

Waiting is so hard, Jesus!

I long to experience the full measure of what You have in store for me.

I confess my impatience.
I want it all now!

But I trust that You know best.

Each stage of life You’ve brought me through
has prepared me for the next.

Now is no exception.
When I’m fully ready –

and only then!

will Your next adventure for me be revealed.

Go on high alert, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Now, son of man, take a block of clay, put it in front of you and draw the city of Jerusalem on it. Then lay siege to it: Erect siege works against it, build a ramp up to it, set up camps against it and put battering rams around it.”
(Ezekiel 4:1-2 )

You weren’t telling Ezekiel to play toy soldiers, Jesus.

You were creating an object lesson
to warn Your people of what was coming.

What’s my object lesson, Father?

Give me eyes that see!

Pray this Lazaroo with courageous discernment:

“…he even refuses to welcome other believers. He also stops those who want to do so…”
(3 John 1:10)

What kind of person behaves like this in Your Church, Jesus?

He’s a plant, isn’t he?
Slipped in by Satan.

Perhaps he’s someone with money or social prominence.

Maybe he holds an office in the church
or simply has been there a long time.

He may be a sinning believer.
He may only pretend to be a believer.

But either way, he’s got to stop

or go.

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!
Fill me!
Save me!

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“Look up to the barren heights and see. Is there any place where you have not been ravished? By the roadside you sat waiting for lovers, sat like a nomad in the desert. You have defiled the land with your prostitution and wickedness. Therefore the showers have been withheld, and no spring rains have fallen.”
(Jeremiah 3:2-3)

You liken Your people to a brazen prostitute, Jesus

making it clear how You view our continual sins.

O God!

Keep me pure before You –

in my thoughts, words and deeds.
