Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“So when we could stand it no longer…”
(1 Thessalonians 3:1)

I love knowing that Paul had that emotion, Jesus!

But it was more than mere emotion, wasn’t it?
You were moving on his heart to do something about it –

which is exactly what he did.

Work through my emotions too, LORD!

May they not be unreliable, leading me astray.
May they instead be guided by You

goading me, prompting me, pushing me, driving me

to do the very things You’ve called me to do!

Pray this Lazaroo with growing understanding:

“…many…wept aloud…while many others shouted for joy.”
(Ezra 3:12)

Same event, Jesus:

the laying of the foundation of the second temple.

Some wept, remembering, overcome with emotion.

Others were so happy they shouted.

That’s who we are, isn’t it?

We react differently because of what’s inside us.

Fill me with Yourself, Holy Spirit!

Put everything inside me You want to be there!
Fill me up with Your holy Word!

So what comes out of me
will consistently glorify You.

Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who makes it count:

“I hated all the things I had toiled for under the sun…”
(Ecclesiastes 2:18)

An emotion that strong seldom happens early in life, Jesus.

It takes years of putting all a person’s energy
into first this thing, then that

to discover how much of it doesn’t amount to

a pile of rotting leaves.

O God! May that not be my fate!

Teach me to remember:

Only one life will soon be past.
Only what’s done for You will last.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“I came to you in…fear…”
(1 Corinthians 2:3)

What, Jesus?

The great Apostle Paul approached one of his assignments

in fear?

Why?

You had worked miracle after miracle through him

like raising the dead.

I would have thought he’d be fearless!

Besides, there’s a Biblical command:
You tell us not to fear.

But obedience is one thing

emotion is another.

Like Paul, please help me obey You to the end

to the letter

no matter how much I fear.

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“…do the things you did at first.”
(Revelation 2:5)

I remember how passionate I was when I gave myself completely to You, Jesus.

I was all-out, no-holds-barred.
You were my Everything.

But it’s hard to maintain that level of emotion

day-in, day-out
month after month
year after year.

I’m ashamed to say I haven’t.

You’re not telling me to feel the way I did at first, though.

You’re telling me to do what I did back then.

Got it.

Pray this Lazaroo with mounting excitement:

“Be appalled at this, O heavens…”
(Jeremiah 2:12)

This is fascinating, Jesus.

You’re telling those who dwell with You in heaven
to react against the sin of Your people just as You do.

That pretty much puts to rest the idea that in heaven

I’ll have only positive emotions.

You promised that when You appear at the end of this age

I’ll be like You –
including every emotion You feel.

In other words – though perfected –

I’ll still be me.
