Pray this Lazaroo in humble gratitude:

“Now Cain said to his brother Abel, ‘Let’s go out to the field.’ While they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.
Then the Lord said to Cain, ‘Where is your brother Abel?’
‘I don’t know,’ he replied. ‘Am I my brother’s keeper?’”
(Genesis 4:8-9)

Cain struck out, Jesus:

He deceived his brother.
He killed his brother.
He lied to God.

But I’ve struck out more times than Cain.

What can wash away my sins?
Nothing but Your blood, my Jesus.

Pray this Lazaroo in heartfelt gratitude:

“If someone brings a lamb as their sin offering, they are to bring a female without defect… the priest shall burn it on the altar…In this way the priest will make atonement for them for the sin they have committed, and they will be forgiven.”
(Leviticus 4:32,35)

My sin has to be atoned for, doesn’t it, Jesus?

It can’t simply be ignored.

You are the Lamb that once and for all

paid for my sins

with Your own blood.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“All this was recorded in the book of the annals…”
(Esther 2:23)

We have our records, Jesus

and You have Yours.

You record every good thought, word and action.

We have nothing close to that.

But some of the things recorded in our books are missing from Yours:

Every sinful thought, word or action I’ve committed

is gone, gone, gone, gone, GONE!

Paid in full by Your blood shed on the cross for me

eradicated from my relationship with You

forever.

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“…the priest shall take some of the blood of the sin offering…”
(Leviticus 4:25)

3,500 years ago

Your priests were working with animal blood, Jesus.

No more.

You’ve promoted every person who places their trust in You:

Now we’re all a kingdom of priests!

The blood You now honor, Father

is not that of goats, sheep, bulls and rams.

The blood that takes away the sins of all who believe –

including mine –

is that of Your own dear Son.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“…the warriors are clad in scarlet.”
(Nahum 2:3)

So am I, Jesus!

I’m Your warrior against the powers of darkness
clad in the scarlet that stands for Your blood –
the blood You shed for me on the cross

which frees me from the power of sin
brings me near to You
gives me life

allows me to enter the Most Holy Place
in 1on1 relationship with You!

What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“…your sins have been forgiven…”
(1 John 2:12)

Are there any sweeter words than that, Jesus?

Not for an habitual, repentant, undeserving sinner like me.

“I love you” are three wonderful words, that’s for sure

but to be loved by one person or a thousand
doesn’t gain me entrance into heaven.

Only what You did for me by giving Your life on the cross

can do that.

What can wash away my sins?

Nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Pray this Lazaroo in unchecked adoration:

“…the precious blood of Christ…”
(1 Peter 1:19)

Your blood is precious to me, Jesus

because it took the place of mine

because all of my blood
couldn’t have paid my sin-debt even as much

as one drop of Yours

because I fully deserve to bleed and die
for my inexcusable offenses against You

while You do not –
not for Your own –
and certainly not for mine.

May I never forget the price You paid

to save my soul.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“…unless…you have tied this scarlet cord in the window…”
(Joshua 2:18)

Rahab knew the one thing that would save her and her family, Jesus –

that scarlet cord
tied in the window.

Throughout the days before Israel returned to attack her city

I’ll bet she guarded that scarlet cord with her life

just as I do the scarlet cord that will save me on Your return:

Your blood shed on the cross

the only sacrifice that forever erases
all my sins.
