Pray this Lazaroo in grateful faith:

“…show mercy…”
(Jude 1:23)

That’s what You did when You came to earth, Jesus.

In stunning mercy,

You deliberately chose
to experience what it means to be human..

Because You’re God, You already knew.

But when You entered this world as a baby

for the first time ever
You felt what we feel.

Now, when we come to You with our hurts and sorrows

You’re not limited to intellectual understanding.

You feel it
You get us

You share our emotions
in a way You never did before.

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 mounting excitement:

“The Spirit then lifted me up and took me away…”
(Ezekiel 3:14)

This was happening in the vision You gave Ezekiel, Jesus –

a wondrous miracle of clarity and holy revelation!

Your visions are so real

that it’s hard to tell whether they’re happening in the body
or exclusively in the heart, soul, spirit, emotions and mind.

O Holy Spirit!

By Vision or Dream or in the body –
Lift me up and take me wherever You want me to go!

Pray this Lazaroo in wisdom, self-control and total trust:

“…forfeiting your life.”
(Habakkuk 2:10)

That seems incomprehensible, Jesus!

Why would anyone forfeit his life?
Why would she throw away something so precious?

But people do it all the time. Why?

Because Your gracious gift of life can become soiled, feel ruined

by sin…pain…sickness…fear…hatred…loss.

And in the darkness that our emotions and Satan himself brings

people can lose hope
abandon perspective
think irrationally

act hastily…foolishly.

But You’re the Giver of life!

My life is not my own to take.

Pray this Lazaroo with single minded intent:

“…rid yourselves of all malice…”
(1 Peter 2:1)

Is there any malice in me, Jesus? Even a tiny shred of it?

If so, expunge every hint of it from every shadow and molecule
of my heart, mind, soul, emotions, body and being!

I know what it is to be the victim of malice.

It’s hell on earth.

No matter what anyone has said or done to me

I absolutely refuse to be guilty of a single
malicious thought, word or deed.

Pray this Lazaroo…with transparency:

“I wrote you out of great distress…”
(2 Corinthians 2:4)

So much for the “super Christians” who say that no matter what happens

I should never become upset, Jesus.

As though my lack of concern is an indication of faith

and my emotional upset means I don’t trust You.

Not true!

If there ever was a “super Christian,” Paul was it
and he had no problem admitting that he was in “great distress.”

Perhaps “super Christianity”

begins with honesty.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“‘…shudder with great horror,’ declares the LORD.”
(Jeremiah 2:12)

That gives me away, doesn’t it, Jesus?

The things that horrify me.
The things that don’t.

Just as does what thrills me

and what doesn’t.

Am I horrified by sin?

Mine and those of others?

Am I thrilled by righteous acts?

Enough to celebrate with those who do them?
Enough to carry them out myself?

My emotions reveal who I am, don’t they, Father?

Please, Holy Spirit…

rise up within me!

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.
