Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“I have come into my garden, my sister, my bride; I have gathered my myrrh with my spice. I have eaten my honeycomb and my honey; I have drunk my wine and my milk. [Friends]: Eat, friends, and drink; drink your fill of love.”
(Song of Songs 5:1)

You’ve placed the Song of Songs in the middle of our Bibles, Jesus

to remind us You’re the Creator of sexual love

and when it’s kept between a husband and wife

it’s beautiful and holy!

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“Live such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits us.”
(1 Peter 2:12)

Pagans are going to accuse me of doing wrong, Jesus.

When I stand against sin and for righteousness
it will violate their heathen standards.

But because You’re the Creator of us all

some values remain constant for everyone.

Help me knock it out of the park with those!

Better think twice, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…your destruction of animals will terrify you.”
(Habakkuk 2:17)

Seriously, Jesus?

Who cares that much about animals?

You do.

That means I’d be wise to care about them, too.

But a whole lot of people don’t.

They forget:

You’re their Creator!

which makes it a dangerous thing to ignore.

When You create

You’re invested.
You intend to fulfill Your purpose.

It would be a very good idea for me

to discover Your purpose for Your creation
and do my best to honor it.

Pray this Lazaroo in eye-opened trust:

“…whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also.”
(1 John 2:23)

Right, Jesus –

…because anyone who sees You

has seen the Father.

There aren’t millions of gods, three gods, two gods.

Just One.
You.

You’re the Father of all

the Savior of my soul

my indwelling Best Friend!

You’re the Creator of heaven and earth

of all that is
or ever will be.

You Are Father, Son, Holy Spirit.

Three in One.
One in Three.

The only time it’s grammatically correct to say:

“They Is…He Are.”

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“He who forms the mountains, who creates the wind, and who reveals his thoughts to mankind, who turns dawn to darkness, and treads on the heights of the earth—the Lord God Almighty is his name.”
(Amos 4:13)

You Are Awesome, Jesus!

To think that You, the Creator of Everything
want to spend 1on1 time with me

sharing Your thoughts
transforming my life
giving me hope and a future.

Great and Mighty One!

You’re my Best Friend.

Pray this Lazaroo in passionate gratitude:

“The land by the sea…will belong to the remnant of the people of Judah…”
(Zephaniah 2:6-7)

You’re amazing Jesus!

You take land away from its sinning inhabitants
and give it to Your obedient people.

And not just any land, either!
Beautiful, highly prized waterfront land!

But of course, as Creator of all lands

that’s Your right.

May I always live before You in such a way

that You are happy to give me new lands
and never take any of it away!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“The Lord…did not withhold his hand from destroying. He made ramparts and walls lament; together they wasted away. Her gates have sunk into the ground; their bars he has broken and destroyed.”
(Lamentations 2:8-9)

It’s easy to have a false idea of who You are, Jesus

believing You would never do such a thing.

Are You the Creator – the very embodiment – of love?

Yes! Absolutely! Hallelujah!

But maybe I’d better get a firmer grasp

on how much You hate sin!

Pray this Lazaroo in humble adulation:

“God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.”
(Colossians 1:27)

Absolutely, Jesus!

A rich, glorious, glory-anticipating total mystery
that I gladly embrace with all my heart

to the very marrow of my bones:

You!

The Creator of the universe and everything in it
King of kings and LORD of lords
Savior of everyone in the world who believes

living in me!

Oh, HALLELUJAH!

Pray this Lazaroo in jaw-dropping awe:

“He built the Most Holy Place…twenty cubits long and twenty cubits wide.”
(2 Chronicles 3:8)

It was also twenty cubits high, Jesus.

Wow.

That has to mean something.

You’re the Creator of Everything, the Ultimate Designer.

You could have given any shape You wanted to Your Most Holy Place

and You chose a perfect cube.

Why?

Well, it was copy and shadow of what’s in heaven –

the symbol of Your Presence among Your people.

Father…Son…Holy Spirit
Length…Width…Height
Different…Equal…

One.

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful reverence:

“And this is love…”
(2 John 1:6)

When You begin a sentence with those words, Jesus

I need to be on the edge of my seat, paying close attention.

My definition of love has no meaning if it’s not the same as Yours.

You’re the Inventor of love.

You’re its Creator
its Perfect Example
its Giver
its Sustainer.

You’re the very definition of love.

If I want to understand love

all I have to do is look at You.
