Pray this Lazaroo in happy anticipation:

“So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.”
(Genesis 3:23-24)

What a heartbreak, Jesus!

We’ve been mourning that loss ever since.

But in heaven –

for those of us who’ve placed our trust in You –

that longing will be fulfilled!

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.”
(Genesis 3:23-24)

It doesn’t sound like we’re getting back in there, Jesus.

Certainly not here on this earth.

But there’s a better place than the Garden of Eden, isn’t there?

Heaven!

And for all who put their faith and trust in You

Angels won’t keep us out.
They’ll usher us in.

Pray this Lazaroo in total amazement:

“The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.”
(Genesis 3:21)

Humanly speaking, this is incomprehensible, Jesus.

Adam and Eve knowingly, deliberately, blatantly disobey You.
As a result, they discover they’re naked.

Of course, there are consequences:

They have to leave the Garden of Eden.
Work and childbirth become harder, more painful.

But instead of abandoning them

You clothe them!

O God! Your loving mercy is unfathomable!

…which is why I’m still drawing a breath on this earth.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“Adam named his wife Eve, because she would become the mother of all the living.”
(Genesis 3:20)

You gave Adam the privilege of naming every animal in the Garden of Eden, Jesus.

But when Adam named Eve
that was utterly, profoundly different.

He knew it.

So he named her in accordance
with what she would become.

Adam was the first man.
Eve was the first woman.

Adam knew every child born in the future
would come from them.

Who will experience New Birth, Father…

because of me?
