Pray this Lazaroo in overwhelmed gratitude:

“I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.”
(Galatians 2:20)

I cannot thank You enough Jesus!

You…living in me!

HALLELUJAH!

How vital for me to always remember:

“I no longer live!”

Instead –

YOU live in me!

Each day from now on

I live 100% by faith…

in You.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“So Moses counted all the firstborn of the Israelites, as the Lord commanded him.”
(Numbers 3:42)

Is that what You liked most about Moses, Jesus?

He did what You commanded him.

Is that true of me?

Do I do what You command me?

Yes.
Most of the time.

But that’s not good enough, is it?

It wasn’t for Moses.

The one time he didn’t do what You told him
it cost him the Promised Land.

From now on, LORD:

I’m shooting for 100%.

Be filled with hope, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“From this day on…”
(Haggai 2:18)

That’s my rallying cry, Jesus:

“From this day on!”

There’s not one thing I can do to erase the past.

It’s done.

No matter how much I wish I could

I can’t undo it.

True, I can repent, apologize, repair –

and with Your help I will!

But what energizes me and gives me hope

is that the next chapter of my life hasn’t been written.

I’m collaborating with You on it

today.

Pray this Lazaroo with informed perspective:

“…he began to draw back…”
(Galatians 2:12)

There’s a time to draw back, Jesus –

when I’ve made a mistake.

But sometimes it’s a mistake to draw back.

The great Apostle Peter was making that mistake.

How many times have I drawn back when I shouldn’t have

or failed to draw back when I should?

That’s done. In the past.

You want me to learn from it
not obsess over it.

From now on

may I listen solely to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with steely-eyed determination:

“From now on…”
(Luke 1:48)

There’s not one blessed thing I can do about the past, Jesus.

No matter how desperately I wish I could change some things

I can’t.

I dare not buy Satan’s lies

telling me it’s too late to turn it around
or tempting me to coast on my past wins.

That was then.
This is now.

It’s not about what I did, said, thought.

It’s all about what I’m doing, saying, thinking

from now on.
