Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“As you summon to a feast day, so you summoned against me terrors on every side. In the day of the Lord’s anger no one escaped or survived; those I cared for and reared my enemy has destroyed.”
(Lamentations 2:22)

We make a lethal mistake, don’t we, Jesus?

When we sin and nothing happens
we think nothing will happen.

We fail to realize You’re giving us time to repent.

But if we don’t

on a day seemingly like any other
suddenly the day of Your anger will arrive.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and his brother John. They were in a boat with their father Zebedee, preparing their nets. Jesus called them, and immediately they left the boat and their father and followed him.”
(Matthew 4:21-22)

That’s who I want to be, Jesus!

Every time You call

I want to be willing to drop what I’m doing –

no matter who I’m doing it with –

and follow You every step of the way!

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“Submit yourselves for the Lord’s sake to every human authority…”
(1 Peter 2:13)

That’s a tall order, Jesus.

So many human authorities are corrupt.
Even more are completely in the wrong.

But You’ve commanded me to do it for Your sake.

I will.
For that reason only.

But this I know:

If human authorities require me to disobey You
You will be the first to tell me to disobey them

no matter what it costs
because I belong to You.

Pray this Lazaroo in simple, profound trust:

“Why, Lord, do you stand far off? Why do you hide yourself in times of trouble? In his arrogance the wicked man hunts down the weak, who are caught in the schemes he devises. He boasts about the cravings of his heart; he blesses the greedy and reviles the Lord.”
(Psalm 10:1-3)

In a heartbeat, Jesus

You could stop every evil person
from saying or doing anything wrong.

which would make us all nothing more than robots.

Instead, You’ve chosen to give us the freedom to choose You

or reject You.

Sunday, September 3, 2023

 

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“The fire on the altar must be kept burning; it must not go out. Every morning the priest is to add firewood and arrange the burnt offering on the fire and burn the fat of the fellowship offerings on it. The fire must be kept burning on the altar continuously; it must not go out.”
(Leviticus 6:12-13)

Why was it so important to You that the fire didn’t go out, Jesus?

Was it because You want the fire You’ve lit in my heart

to keep burning ever hotter until You call me home?

Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

“Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth. I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.”
(Revelation 3:10-11)

Thank You for this promise to the Church of Philadelphia, Jesus!

According to Your will, may we be that Church!

Make me increasingly, passionately faithful to You
during every remaining day You have ordained for me
on planet earth.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“Every high priest…is able to deal gently with those who are ignorant and are going astray, since he himself is subject to weakness. This is why he has to offer sacrifices for his own sins, as well as for the sins of the people. And no one takes this honor on himself, but he receives it when called by God…”
(Hebrews 5:1-4)

You are amazing, Jesus!

You deliberately choose flawed people to honor
by calling them to do Your perfect work –

which means You can also work through me!

Be greatly encouraged as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I have heard the insults of Moab and the taunts of the Ammonites, who insulted my people and made threats against their land.”
(Zephaniah 2:8)

That’s all I need to know, Jesus.

When somebody targets me, I’m not alone.
You know the ins and outs of their insidious plans.

I’m not the best of Your people.

Not by a long shot.

But I belong to You – with every fiber of my being.

That means You take their actions against me Personally.

That being the case
I like my chances.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser focused intent:

“As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you.”
(1 John 2:24)

It doesn’t do much good, Jesus

to hear the great, life-changing truths of Your Word

then fail to remember them

not build every aspect of my life upon them.

You’ve told me to see to it that I don’t let that happen.

That means I’m the one responsible.

If I don’t do it
I have no one to blame but myself.

Saturday, May 27, 2023

 

Pray this Lazaroo with humble understanding:

“Every high priest is selected from among the people and is appointed to represent the people in matters related to God, to offer gifts and sacrifices for sins. He is able to deal gently with those who are ignorant and are going astray, since he himself is subject to weakness.”
(Hebrews 5:1-2)

Help me deal gently with the shortcomings of others, Jesus

since I, too, am subject to weakness.

May I deal with their issues

as tenderly as I want You to deal with mine.
