Pray this Lazaroo…in awe:

“…united with Christ…”
(Philippians 2:1)

What a mind-blowing thought, Jesus!

But it’s more than a thought.
It’s reality.

This is my current status:

I’m united with You!

I’m in You
You’re in me.

You know everything I’m thinking, what I’m saying and doing.

Thanks to the Indwelling Holy Spirit
I have Your mind on every matter I need to address.

You and I are bound together –

not just for the duration of my life on this earth
but forever.

Pray this Lazaroo in heart-thumping anticipation:

“…the people heard that he had come…”
(Mark 2:1)

When You show up, Jesus

word gets around.

You stir things up wherever You go.

Sometimes by the miracles you perform.
Sometimes by the love You show.
Sometimes by the sheer force of Your Presence.

O God! May I dare to ask?

Show up in me!

When I walk into the room

may people be able to see through me

all the way to You, living, healing, being Yourself

in me.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“…you have…shown partiality in matters of the law.”
(Malachi 2:9)

Not something that pleases You, Jesus.

You gave Your law to be applied equally, fairly, to all.
Instead, they used it inconsistently

holding some to its righteous standards
excusing others.

I can’t begin to imagine how displeased You are

with my inconsistency, LORD.

Please forgive me!
I am utterly without excuse.

All I can do is give it everything I’ve got

and beg You to be Yourself in me.

Bow in gratitude to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“For the Israelites will live many days…without ephod…”
(Hosea 3:4)

What a loss, Jesus!

Your people were accustomed to being able to go to the priest
who would consult the Urim and Thummim in the ephod
and You would show them the way they were to take.

I’ve lived all my life without the ephod, Father –

but not without Your direction!

for You’ve given Your people something far more intimate than the ephod.

O Holy Spirit!
I have You.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“In the second month of the second year after their arrival at the house of God in Jerusalem…”
(Ezra 3:8)

What a great way to tell time, Jesus!

Have it start from the first day they arrived at Your house.

I tell time much the same way.

No…not from the time I arrived in Your house in Jerusalem
But from the time You entered my life and I became Your house.

You live in me!
Me!

Now that…is love.

Pray this Lazaroo in deepest humility:

“Whatever they do…”
(Haggai 2:14)

Oh, Jesus.

The things I do
come from who I am.

The outside of me
is a glimpse into the inside of me.

When I do something right, that says something good about me.
When I do something wrong, that says something bad about me.

But there’s nothing good in the old me.
All my good comes from the new me.

In You.

The only good there is in me
is powered by the God in me.

You.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“The LORD is righteous…”
(Lamentations 1:18)

That’s what terrifies me about my relationship with You, Jesus!

You’re righteous
I’m not.

You’re holy.
I’m not.

You’re perfect.
I’m not.

You’re sinless.
I’m not.

If friendship is built on commonality, I’m as far away from You as the east is from the west

which…come to think of it…
is how far You’ve removed my sins from me.

So there’s only one prayer I dare pray, isn’t there?

Be Yourself in me.

 Pray this Lazaroo in heartfelt gratitude: 

“For God…was at work in the ministry of Peter…”
(Galatians 2:8)

I’m so glad You’re at work in human ministry, Jesus!

I shudder to think how little good I would accomplish
if it was all on me.

As I’ve tried to serve You over the years

the quality of my service hasn’t always been the best.

There are times when my attitude
could have been just the tiniest bit better. 😉

Thank You for turning my inadequacy

into something amazingly supernatural.
