“The Lord also said to Moses, ‘Take the Levites in place of all the firstborn of Israel, and the livestock of the Levites in place of their livestock. The Levites are to be mine. I am the Lord.’”
(Numbers 3:44-45)

How incredibly special it was to be a Levite, Jesus!

That had to make them feel so close to You –
because they belonged to You.

Though not a Levite, I’ve put my faith in You –

which means lock, stock and barrel:

I’m Yours!

Fully open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“For he himself is our peace, who has made the two groups one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, by setting aside in his flesh the law with its commands and regulations.”
(Ephesians 2:14-15)

What two groups, Jesus?

The Jews and everybody else –

brought together by faith in You, their Messiah.

When You died on the cross and rose from the grave three days later

You replaced the demands of the law…

with Yourself.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“I know where you live – where Satan has his throne. Yet you remain true to my name. You did not renounce your faith in me…”
(Revelation 2:13)

That’s the ultimate test, isn’t it, Jesus?

Most people can remain true to Your Name
when surrounded by Your faithful followers.

But how many people are able to stand like a rock for You
when there are Jesus-haters everywhere they look?

I don’t know.
But I want to be one of them.

Pray this Lazaroo in sobered recognition:

“…whoever keeps the whole law and yet stumbles at just one point is guilty of breaking all of it.”
(James 2:10)

Thank You for clarifying this, Jesus.

The law doesn’t hand out grades of A, B, C, D or F
The law is pass/fail.

If I miss one question, I flunk.

Thank You for Your amazing grace!

Thank You for accepting me on the basis of faith!

Because when it comes to the law

I flunked a long time ago.

Pray this Lazaroo in everlasting gratitude:

“…he will be forgiven.”
(Leviticus 4:26)

Are there any sweeter words in any language, Jesus?

Maybe…but not many.

I know my sins.

Not all of them, certainly.
There are too many to keep count.

But some of those I do remember haunt me.

I wish I had never committed them.
In fact, I can’t think of a single sin I don’t regret.

But O Jesus!

I’m stunned!

Because of my faith in You
You’ve forgiven all my sins!

Forever!

“…he who has established me securely…”
(1 Kings 2:24)

And that You have, Jesus.

You’ve established me securely.

You’ve done it through that very promise You made to King David.

You told him he would always have a descendant to sit on the throne.

When You, descended from the line of David

paid for my sins on the cross
rose from the dead

then ascended back to Your throne in heaven

You established me through faith in You

Eternally.

Take your stand, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.
(Revelation 2:9)

You’ve made it clear, Jesus

that true Jews are not merely children of Abraham outwardly
but are those who live by the faith of Abraham
through trust in You alone for their salvation.

May I never become part of any religious group that denies You

as the true Jewish Messiah
who was promised to come to earth

as Savior of the world.
