Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“I write to you…”
(Philemon 1:21)

Paul thought he knew who his letter was going to, Jesus

but did You give Him a glimpse that it might be going further –
to be read by billions of people for thousands of years?

Pretty amazing.

You gave Him the words
he conveyed them to Philemon
and You made sure they kept going

all the way to me.

O God!

What are Your plans for the words I speak and write?

Saturday, November 10, 2018…….. 5th Anniversary of 1on1 Church!

 

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“…God’s Word is not chained.”
(2 Timothy 2:9)

They threw Paul in prison, Jesus –

chained him like a criminal.

Why? For preaching the good news about You –

that You were crucified for the sins of all who believe
that You rose from the dead three days later
that You’re coming back for Your own.

They wanted to shut him up.

But all they could do was chain the man.

They couldn’t chain truth then

and can’t do it now.

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful recognition:

“…as prescribed by David king of Israel.”
(Ezra 3:10)

It takes somebody to prescribe things, Jesus.

If there’s nobody to do that…

…chaos.

That’s why You provide these people to us.

Sometime we’re grateful
sometimes not.

Our problem is that no matter who You provide

they’re not perfect.
They make mistakes.

We think to ourselves, “I could do better.”

Maybe we’re right.

But if You appointed us to the job

there would be people thinking

“I could do better.”

Pray this Lazaroo with undiluted sincerity:

“Through the desert…”
(2 Kings 3:8)

Was King Joram happy to hear that plan, Jesus?

I wouldn’t be.

Bad things happen in the desert.

The desert is hot.
The desert is hard.

It was another king who told Joram to take that route.

It would take more than that for me
to deliberately place myself in harm’s way.

My momma didn’t raise no fool.

However.

If I’m sure it’s You sending me through the desert

I’ll start packing my camel.

Sober up, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“May God deal with me…”
(1 Kings 2:23)

Oh, Jesus.

We human beings don’t pay nearly enough attention to our words, do we?

King Solomon was about to pronounce the death sentence upon his brother.

In fact, he was so angry at his brother at that moment
that he declared his intent with an oath.

But before I follow Solomon’s example, it might be good for me to remember:

If I ask You to deal with me

You will.

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“…we are…created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”
(Ephesians 2:10)

When I really begin to get hold of this truth, Jesus

it’s an amazing feeling.

You could have set me on planet earth 5,000 years ago.
You could have waited to bring me here 1,000 years from now.

But You didn’t

because You’ve got a whole list of things to accomplish through me

and my time to do them is now.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“He chased Abner…”
(2 Samuel 2:19)

There were a lot of people the fleet-footed Asahel could have safely chased, Jesus

but the commander Abner wasn’t one of them.

No doubt Asahel picked him because he was the biggest prize

but sadly, he didn’t know what to do with him when he caught him

and it cost him his life.

What am I chasing that I shouldn’t be, LORD?

Don’t let me catch it.

I’d rather be slow

than dead.

Take warning as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…he began to…separate himself from the Gentiles…”
(Galatians 2:12)

Peter was on a roll, Jesus.

Through a powerful vision, You had made it crystal clear:
He was to share Your good news with non-Jews
lovingly including them in Your Church.

But all it took was for Jews who had not had that vision to show up

for Peter to revert to his pre-vision behavior.

What beautiful insights have You given me, LORD?

Am I still walking in Your Light?
