Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’”
(John 3:5-7)

I can do all the good within my power to do, Jesus

but I can’t save myself.

I’m looking to You alone to save me

as I trust in Your death, burial and resurrection.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“Jesus declared, ‘I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.’ ‘How can a man be born when he is old?’ Nicodemus asked. ‘Surely he cannot enter a second time into his mother’s womb to be born!’”
(John 3:3-4)

The New Life You grant to all who put their faith in You, Jesus

is a fresh, brand-new start
even more profound

than the miracle
of a baby’s first breath
on this earth.

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 undiluted sincerity:

“…God, who calls you into his kingdom…”
(1 Thessalonians 2:12)

What an honor, Jesus!

Most people have to be born into a kingdom.
Instead, You’re calling me to –

oh. Right.

I have to be born into Your kingdom, don’t I?
Make that: “born again.”

So I acknowledge my sin, my inability to save myself.

I admit You’re my Only Hope.

I believe You died and rose again

paying for all my sins in full.

Now, what?

Keep following You.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“…you have brought your father and mother, your brothers and all your family into your house.”
(Joshua 2:18)

That’s my priority, isn’t it, Jesus?

Do everything I can to make sure everybody in my family
is in Your house.

Of course, the older they get

the less control I have.

There comes a day when control is gone

and all I have is influence.

Well…that’s not exactly true, is it?

I have You.

I can fall on my face and pray.
