Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“You who are Gentiles by birth…”
(Ephesians 2:11)

It doesn’t matter what I am by birth, Jesus.

Maybe it does to some people.

But not to You.

What counts is the fact that I believe You died for my sins and rose from the dead.

What matters is that I give myself wholly to You

trusting You alone for any hope I have on this earth
and for eternity in heaven.

Rebirth!

Walking daily in You.

That’s what matters.

Ready yourself for battle, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Abner looked behind him and asked, ‘Is that you, Asahel?’ ‘It is,’ he answered.”
(2 Samuel 2:20)

This was a death-chase, Jesus.

A war was raging.
Asahel was intent on killing Abner.

I, too, am in a war – a holy war – the war of the ages.

The forces of good against the forces of evil.
Angels and believers against demons and God-haters.
My Christian self against my sinful human nature.

O God! Rise up within me in power!

Help me win.

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“The other Jews joined him in his hypocrisy…”
(Galatians 2:13)

What weak, wishy-washy follower of Yours are you referring to, Jesus?

Oh, wait a minute. I stand corrected.

This was none other than Your chosen Apostle Peter!

the man who was crucified upside-down for his faith.

He was just having a bad day. So were the other Jews.

So have I.

You didn’t give up on Peter when he slipped into hypocrisy…

and you will never give up on me.

Pray this Lazaroo in humble confidence:

“…the LORD will judge the ends of the earth.”
(1 Samuel 2:10)

So that means nobody escapes, Jesus.

One day everyone will stand before You to give account

including me.

But the good news is that because I continue to put my faith and trust in You alone

heaven is my home
firm and secure.

When I’m judged by You

it will be to evaluate the quality of my service to You throughout my life

and be rewarded accordingly.

Pray this Lazaroo in self-assessment:

“…to see if you would stand the test…”
(2 Corinthians 2:9)

Obviously, Jesus…

You knew if they would stand the test
You know everything before it happens.

But that may explain why I’m going through some things.

Maybe this is a test.

If so…how am I doing?

Well, I know the partial answer:

In some areas
I wasn’t exactly on my “A” game..

But overall, what’s my grade?

My salvation is secure
but my heavenly treasure is what’s at stake.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“At this, she bowed down with her face to the ground.”
(Ruth 2:10)

Not a bad response, Jesus

when once again
You show up in miraculous, life-changing power.

When I bow with my face to the ground

I’m acknowledging Your greatness
in contrast with my smallness.

I’m demonstrating how shocked I am

that You would love sinful, unworthy
inconsistent, falling-short me

this much!

I’m worshiping You with all my heart
declaring I’m unworthy to stand in Your Presence.

Pray this Lazaroo in mind-blown love:

“…God destined for our glory before time began.”
(1 Corinthians 2:7)

You’re talking about secret wisdom, Jesus –

a wisdom that had long been hidden.

I can’t begin to imagine the magnitude of that statement!

Before I was born…before anyone was born
before You created the heavens and earth

You knew me
loved me
chose me

laid specific, amazing plans for the days You’ve allotted to me

to walk this earth…

then explore the vast reaches of Your creation

forever!

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“Unlike their fathers…”
(Judges 2:17)

That can be a bad thing, Jesus

…or something very good.

Of course, no one is exactly like their father

so that’s understood.

But fathers leave examples for us to follow…or reject.

If my father was an evil person
may I not repeat his sins!

But if my father was a good man
help me walk in his footsteps

while never forgetting that the only perfect example that is always safe to follow

is Yours.

Pray this Lazaroo in humbled dedication:

“They are…boastful…”
(Romans 1:29-30)

Boasting is hard to take, Jesus.

When somebody starts telling me how good they are
or goes on and on about what they’ve accomplished
or attempts to impress me with their important friends

I can hardly bear it.
I can’t wait for them to stop.

So why do I do it?

What makes me think others want to hear what I don’t?

Please forgive me!

I have no reason to boast about anything

but You.

Pray this Lazaroo in longing belief:

“Then the two men started back.”
(Joshua 2:23)

When it comes to vacations, Jesus

many people believe it’s more fun to leave
than to start back.

But as healthy as a break can be

a person who loves their work
is eager to resume.

A person who loves their home
is thankful to return.

Help me truly embrace the calling You’ve placed on my life!

while remembering that heaven –

not this world –

is my true home.
