Mean it all the way to the marrow of your bones, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…out of our intense longing we made every effort to see you.”
(1 Thessalonians 2:17)

Paul really wanted this, Jesus

and You didn’t give it to him!

Through Paul You gave us much of the New Testament!

Through Him You healed the sick and raised the dead!

But when he passionately desired something outside of Your will

You said no.

Just because he thought it was best didn’t mean it was.

So, please, LORD:

Do the same for me.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“You show that you are a letter from Christ, the result of our ministry, written not with ink but with the Spirit of the living God, not on tablets of stone but on tablets of human hearts. Such confidence we have through Christ before God.”
(2 Corinthians 3:3-4)

That’s the letter of recommendation I desire, Jesus!

I’m not asking for a piece of paper.

All I need to see

is that through me

You continue to transform lives!

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

“Blessed are those who find wisdom, those who gain understanding, for she is more profitable than silver and yields better returns than gold. She is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare with her. Long life is in her right hand; in her left hand are riches and honor.”
(Proverbs 3:13-16)

To find wisdom and understanding, Jesus…

I’d better be searching for it!

Always putting You and Your ways first

promises that every good thing will follow.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“…the older women…can train the younger women…to be self-controlled…”
(Titus 2:3-5)

Yes, they can, Jesus…

provided the older women are themselves self-controlled.

It’s somewhat difficult
to teach something you don’t do.

It’s also extremely helpful for younger women
to see self-control modeled day after day.

Of course, the other side of the equation

is that the younger women must be willing to be taught.

Self-control is hard!

They’ve got to passionately desire it
and be willing to pay the price.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your being:

“…to escape the clutches of ruin!”
(Habakkuk 2:9)

That’s certainly what I desire, Jesus!

Disappointments, losses, hard times and setbacks are one thing.
Ruin…hangs around a little longer.

However: Anyone who foolishly attempts to escape the clutches of ruin in their own strength

is cursed, marked, doomed to failure –

not only on this earth
but eternally.

There is only one way to escape the clutches of utter, total, permanent ruin:

Trust in You.
Trust in You.
Trust in You.

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“…the Levites…took their places…”
(Ezra 3:10)

That’s what I desire, Jesus –

to take my place –
the one You’ve assigned to me
the one You’ve equipped me to fill.

No matter how good it looks

I don’t want somebody else’s place.
It wouldn’t be a fit.

Besides, I’d be blocking them from what’s theirs
and missing what’s mine.

So show me my place!

And if for some reason I keep missing it

just pick me up and put me there.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“I pray that…all may go well with you…”
(3 John 1:2)

That’s a bodacious, outrageous, too-good-to-be-true-except-that-it’s-You prayer, Jesus!

Seriously?

That all may go well with somebody? Anybody!

Who deserves that?

Billy Graham?
Mother Teresa?
My sainted grandmother?

Huh-uh.

Certainly not Yours truly.

But I have the privilege of praying that prayer over every single person I care about –

not because of their goodness
but because of Yours

along with Your power and desire

to do infinitely more than I ask.
