Pray this Lazaroo with confidence:

“…the Lord is faithful…”
(2 Thessalonians 3:3)

I love this about You, Jesus!

No one is as faithful as You.

We make promises to one another with every intent to keep them.

But when circumstances change
our promises can fly out the window.

No so with You!

You’re All-Powerful.
You control all circumstances.

Because You see the future
nothing takes You by surprise.

The moment You make a promise

You know when, how and where You will keep it.

Pray this Lazaroo in fervency of spirit:

“These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God’s creation. I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either one or the other! So, because you are lukewarm—neither hot nor cold—I am about to spit you out of my mouth.”
(Revelation 3:14-16)

In the day-to-day struggle, Jesus

it’s so easy to lose my passion.

No, I don’t forsake You. I never stop believing. My love doesn’t grow cold.

But if it’s not burning hot
that has to change.

Now.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Now the glory of the God of Israel went up from above the cherubim, where it had been, and moved to the threshold of the temple. Then the Lord called…‘Go throughout the city of Jerusalem and put a mark on the foreheads of those who grieve and lament over all the detestable things that are done in it.’”
(Ezekiel 9:3-4)

Place that mark on my forehead, Jesus!

I’m brokenhearted about what is happening in my country
and around the world.

Because I’m faithful to Your Word

may many others receive that mark.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“When God saw what they did and how they turned from their evil ways, he relented and did not bring on them the destruction he had threatened.”
(Jonah 3:10)

That’s what I’ve had to do times beyond counting, Jesus:

turn from my evil ways!

I don’t know why I keep having to do that.

You would think I’d learn by now:

Leaving Your path never pays.

But I marvel at the fact that no matter how many times I have to repent

You are faithful to forgive!

Sunday, October 15, 2023

 

Pray this Lazaroo with utter humility:

“‘Return, faithless Israel,’ declares the Lord, ‘I will frown on you no longer, for I am faithful,’ declares the Lord, ‘I will not be angry forever. Only acknowledge your guilt—you have rebelled against the Lord your God, you have scattered your favors to foreign gods under every spreading tree, and have not obeyed me,’ declares the Lord.”
(Jeremiah 3:12-13)

It’s when I refuse to acknowledge my guilt

that You continue to frown on me, isn’t it, Jesus?

Well, let me take care of that right now:

I’m guilty!
My sins are horrific!

I have no excuse.
None.

Please be merciful to me, a sinner.

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 single-minded determination:

“This, then, is how you ought to regard us: as servants of Christ and as those entrusted with the mysteries God has revealed. Now it is required that those who have been given a trust must prove faithful.”
(1 Corinthians 4:1-2)

What have You entrusted to me, Jesus?

Whom have You entrusted to me?

Don’t allow me to overlook even one of Your assignments!

I long to have You look on me one day and say:

“You have proven faithful.”

Pray this Lazaroo with a fervent heart:

“Be glad, people of Zion, rejoice in the Lord your God, for he has given you the autumn rains because he is faithful.”
(Joel 2:23)

Yes, You Are, Jesus!

You always keep Your promises.
You gave Your life for me on the cross

I, on the other hand, haven’t always been faithful to You.

It hurts me to admit that.
I know it hurts You even more.

Well, that’s got to change.

Not sometime in the future.

Starting now.

Set your goals, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I will raise up for myself a faithful priest, who will do according to what is in my heart and mind. I will firmly establish his priestly house, and they will minister before my anointed one always. Then everyone left in your family line will come and bow down before him…”
(1 Samuel 2:35-36)

You’re big on faithfulness, Jesus.
You greatly value obedience, too.

You reward those who are faithful and obedient

and punish those who aren’t.

Pray this Lazaroo in holy fear:

“You have wearied the Lord with your words. ‘How have we wearied him?’ you ask. By saying, ‘All who do evil are good in the eyes of the Lord, and he is pleased with them…’”
(Malachi 2:17)

To forgive me, Jesus

is a totally different thing
than being pleased with me.

The first happens after I’ve sinned and confessed it.

The second happens when I’ve refused to sin
and remain faithful.

I’m grateful beyond words for Your forgiveness!

But I’d rather You be pleased.
