Pray this Lazaroo in gratitude and awe:

“When Boaz had finished eating and drinking and was in good spirits, he went over to lie down at the far end of the grain pile.”
(Ruth 3:7)

If Boaz thought he was in good spirits then, Jesus

You were about to take him to a whole ‘nuther level!

He was about to get a new wife and a new life.

Moreover, You were adding him to the bloodline
from which You would one day be born –

and by Your blood shed on the cross
I’ve been born again!

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“Sing the praises of the Lord, enthroned in Zion; proclaim among the nations what he has done. For he who avenges blood remembers; he does not ignore the cries of the afflicted. Lord, see how my enemies persecute me! Have mercy and lift me up from the gates of death…”
(Psalm 9:11-13)

I’ve got to know this, Jesus!

When I see the atrocities being committed, it breaks my heart!

Thank You for letting me know You will intervene for them

and me.

Be on your guard! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Their teaching will spread like gangrene.”
(2 Timothy 2:17)

False teaching is so like gangrene it’s scary, Jesus

bringing spiritual death to all who embrace it.

Gangrene occurs when there is no blood flow to arms, legs, toes and fingers

just as false teachers deny the saving power
of Your blood shed for us on the cross.

Muscles and internal organs can die from spreading infection

in the same way the sins promoted by the false teacher
destroys their followers from the inside.

Pray this Lazaroo with unabashed gratitude:

“…the Lord said, ‘If they do not believe you or pay attention to the first sign, they may believe the second. But if they do not believe these two signs or listen to you, take some water from the Nile and pour it on the dry ground. The water you take from the river will become blood on the ground.’”
(Exodus 4:8-9)

I believe, Jesus!

I’m paying attention.

I need no other sign

than the miracle of Your salvation
for my sin-sick soul.

Ask God to open your eyes, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“’That’s blood!’ they said. ‘Those kings must have fought and slaughtered each other. Now to the plunder, Moab!’ But when the Moabites came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and fought them until they fled. And the Israelites invaded the land and slaughtered the Moabites.”
(2 Kings 3:23-24)

The Moabites weren’t stupid, Jesus.

You’re the one who made them fall for that ruse.
You’re the one who gave Your people that stunning victory

…as You always are.

Pray this Lazaroo with growing confidence:

“…I will stretch out my hand and strike the Egyptians with all the wonders that I will perform among them. After that, he will let you go.”
(Exodus 3:20)

Mind-blowing, Jesus.

Before you turned Moses’ staff into a snake, then back into a staff
before you turned his hand leprous, then healed

before the plagues of blood, frogs, lice, flies, livestock deaths, boils, hail, locusts, darkness, firstborn deaths…

You orchestrated exactly how it was going to play out…

as You are doing with me.

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“…they realized they were naked; so they sowed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.”
(Genesis 3:7)

That’s what happens every time I sin, Jesus.

First the shame
then the cover-up.

Sin must be covered

because it’s so foul!

I could attempt to cover my sin

with lies, excuses, misdirection
trying to change the subject –

all for naught.

The only way sin can ever be covered

is by sincere repentance
trusting in Your shed blood on the cross.

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“…bloodthirsty…men the LORD abhors.”
(Psalm 5:6)

Wow.

If that’s the standard…
a lot of people in our world are in trouble, Jesus

and that is
Your standard.

An alarming percentage of our movies, TV shows and video games are dripping with blood.

What’s up with that?
Where does that come from?

Oh.
Right.

You said Satan was a murderer from the beginning.

Maybe that’s why You abhor those who are bloodthirsty.

May I never..never..never

be counted among their number.
