Pray this Lazaroo in stunned realization:

“Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be. Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring? My brothers and sisters, can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water.”
(James 3:10-12)

I think You just nailed me, Jesus.

Do I praise You?

Yes. Absolutely.

Do I sometimes speak judgmental words of anger and disrespect?

Sadly, I do.

Looks like I’m due for some

spring cleaning.

Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse human beings, who have been made in God’s likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be. Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring?”
(James 3:9-11)

May my words always come from Your fresh water spring, Jesus!

You did not create my lips to spew salt water!

Keep me faithful to Your Word

as I store up Your truths within me.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat with their father Zebedee, preparing their nets. Jesus called them, and immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.”
(Matthew 4:21-22)

That’s who I want to be, Jesus!

Every time You call

I want to be willing to drop what I’m doing –

no matter who I’m doing it with –

and follow You every step of the way!

Pray this Lazaroo in faith-filled anticipation:

“As for other matters, brothers and sisters, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you.”
(2 Thessalonians 3:1)

Paul was able to say that about Your believers in Thessalonica, Jesus…

may You be able to say that through me!

Work through me and those I love and with whom I serve

to spread Your message rapidly!

May the good news of Your salvation be honored

and may many come to faith in You!

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. ‘Come, follow me,’ Jesus said, ‘and I will send you out to fish for people.’ At once they left their nets and followed him.”
(Matthew 4:18-20)

When You call me, Jesus

I want to do what Peter and Andrew did when You called them:

Leave whatever I’m doing
and come running.

Get motivated! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“As for other matters, brothers and sisters, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly…”
(2 Thessalonians 3:1)

Through us, You’re establishing Your kingdom, Jesus

and You don’t want us dragging our feet.

You want us on high alert.
Time’s a-wasting!

People are dying without hearing about You!
Others are on the fence, for lack of good information.

It’s my job to do something about that.

You’ve told me to go tell.
I’d better get with it.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, ‘Brothers, what shall we do?’ Peter replied, ‘Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.’”
(Acts 2:37-38)

Straightforward question…

straightforward answer, Jesus:

the gospel in a nutshell.

When people ask me what to do

may I be just that straightforward.

Follow Jesus’ example as you pray this Lazaroo:

“What Jesus did in Cana of Galilee was the first of the signs through which he revealed his glory…After this he went down to Capernaum with his mother and brothers and his disciples. There they stayed for a few days. When it was almost time for the Jewish Passover, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.”
(John 2:11-13)

You went from working a miracle…

to loving Your family…

to preparing for Your next mission, Jesus.

I’d love to follow in Your footsteps…

but I might need a litle help with the miracles! 😉

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“Where now is the lions’ den, the place where they fed their young, where the lion and lioness went…”
(Nahum 2:11)

The lion and lioness need a den, Jesus –

a place to rest
to hide from their enemies
to call home.

And so do my precious brothers and sisters around the world.

But some of them are too poor.
Others are being attacked, fleeing for their lives.

O God!

Rescue them!
Don’t let the enemy overtake them.

I beg You.

Pray this Lazaroo with renewed resolve:

“Anyone who withholds kindness from a friend forsakes the fear of the Almighty. But my brothers are as undependable as intermittent streams, as the streams that overflow when darkened by thawing ice and swollen with melting snow, but that stop flowing in the dry season, and in the heat vanish from their channels.”
(Job 6:14-17)

Job’s friends started out so well, Jesus

but before long, couldn’t resist the urge
to kick him while he was down.

May my healthy fear of you

keep me from being one of Job’s “comforters.”
