Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“…he preached the word to them.”
(Mark 2:2)

Oh, to have been there to hear You preach, Jesus!

I try to imagine what it must have been like…but I can’t.

You taught the Word like no one ever has or can

because You ARE The Word.

Many people believed You and followed You from that moment on.

But many others did not.

I can’t comprehend that level of blindness!

…until I remember how many times I’ve failed to obey.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“…even denying the sovereign Lord…”
(2 Peter 2:1)

How can they do that, Jesus?

They’d have to be blind not to recognize You!

Well, yeah.

That’s exactly what they are.

But not just spiritually blind –

also physically, mentally and emotionally –
blind as bats.

Actually, that’s an insult to bats.
They’re blinder.

It’s that word, “sovereign” that gets them, isn’t it?

Says You’re the Boss.

And of course, You Are

which leaves them no alternative
but to squeeze shut their eyes.

Pray this Lazaroo with horror:

“So they stood up and were counted off – “
(2 Samuel 2:15)

Sometimes it’s good to stand up and be counted, Jesus.

But not this time.

Because of the arrogance of their commanding officers

every one of these soldiers was about to die.

When the cause is just, I’m willing to stand up and be counted

even if it costs me my life.

But when ego, blindness or stupidity are afoot

please give me the wisdom to stay seated.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“Once you were alienated from God…”
(Colossians 1:21)

Yes I was, Jesus

in a place of darkness.

Without You, the Light of the World, shining into me

I was guessing, fumbling, stumbling blind

But when I placed my faith in You alone as my Savior

the lights came on!

I still have questions. There is much I don’t understand.

But in You are all the answers
which You will fully reveal to me

in Your way
in Your time.
