Pray this Lazaroo in stunned recognition:

“…he had healed many, so that those with diseases were pushing forward to touch him. Whenever the impure spirits saw him, they fell down before him and cried out, ‘You are the Son of God.’ But he gave them strict orders not to tell others about him.”
(Mark 3:10-12)

It’s so sad, Jesus

that demons can recognize who You Are
but millions of people cannot.

Clearly, only those whom the Father draws to You

will ever bow at Your feet.

Pray this Lazaroo in believing wonder:

“As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you. If it does, you also will remain in the Son and in the Father.”
(1 John 2:24)

When I have You, Jesus…

I have the Father.

You and the Father are One.

To see You
is to see the Father.

There aren’t two Gods – or three.

Just One:
Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

The only time it’s Scripturally and grammatically correct to say:

They Is
He Are.

Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“…a temple had not yet been built for the Name of the Lord. Solomon showed his love for the Lord by walking according to the instructions given him by his father David, except that he offered sacrifices and burned incense on the high places.”
(1 Kings 3:2-3)

Solomon had an excuse for doing wrong, Jesus.

There was no temple.

But he didn’t have to go to one of those high places You so detested!

Satan will always provide me with an excuse to do wrong.

But to do wrong
there is no acceptable excuse.

Pray this Lazaroo with unending allegiance:

“…whoever continues in the teaching has both the Father and the Son.”
(2 John 1:9)

That’s the key, isn’t it, Jesus?

I’ve got to continue what I started.

Correction.

I’ve got to continue what You started in me!

And of course, if it was indeed You who started it

I will continue.

It’s when people have a form of godliness

but deny Who You really Are
that they don’t continue.

The proof today that I’m on my way to heaven through faith in You?

I’m still here.

Pray this Lazaroo in eye-opened trust:

“…whoever acknowledges the Son has the Father also.”
(1 John 2:23)

Right, Jesus –

…because anyone who sees You

has seen the Father.

There aren’t millions of gods, three gods, two gods.

Just One.
You.

You’re the Father of all

the Savior of my soul

my indwelling Best Friend!

You’re the Creator of heaven and earth

of all that is
or ever will be.

You Are Father, Son, Holy Spirit.

Three in One.
One in Three.

The only time it’s grammatically correct to say:

“They Is…He Are.”

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.”
(Philemon 1:3)

When I live in the wonder of Your grace, Jesus

I experience Your peace.

So long as I believe I have to earn my way to heaven

there is no peace
because I know I’ll never be good enough.

But when I trust what You did for me on the cross

as payment in full for my sins

I’m filled with Your peace
that surpasses all understanding.

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed and word.”
(2 Thessalonians 2:16-17)

I want all my words to be good, Jesus

not just some of them.

But my only hope to achieve that lofty goal

is to stay constantly in tune with You, Holy Spirit!

May every word I speak be fulfilled

because it originates with You!

Pray this Lazaroo in passionate dedication:

“…you have the brazen look of a prostitute; you refuse to blush with shame. Have you not just called to me: ‘‘My Father, my friend from my youth, will you always be angry? Will your wrath continue forever?’ This is how you talk, but you do all the evil you can.”
(Jeremiah 3:3-5)

You never were much for empty words, were You, Jesus?

Weren’t then
aren’t now.

Nor am I.

I’ve heard too many broken promises
to make any to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with undying love:

“No one who denies the Son has the Father…”
(1 John 2:23)

There aren’t millions of Gods, Jesus.

There aren’t two Gods or three Gods.

There’s just One:

You.

You and the Father Are One.

Anyone who has seen You has seen the Father.

You live within me

in the Person of the Holy Spirit.

God created the heavens and the earth.

Everything that exists was made by You.

I have the Father

because I have You!

Pray this Lazaroo with growing eagerness:

“May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good deed…”
(2 Thessalonians 2:16-17)

May I pray that prayer over others, Jesus

and may others pray it over me.

Oh, how we need You to encourage and strengthen us

as in Your Name we perform good deed after good deed!
