Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“…he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that he would place one of his descendants on his throne. Seeing what was to come, he spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, that he was not abandoned to the realm of the dead, nor did his body see decay.”
(Acts 2:30-31)

You made that promise to King David, Jesus

and You kept it.

You keep all Your promises.

Please, LORD…

help me keep mine.

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“Fellow Israelites, I can tell you confidently that the patriarch David died and was buried, and his tomb is here to this day. But he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that he would place one of his descendants on his throne.”
(Acts 2:29-30)

You, Jesus! David’s descendant!

David breathed his last breath on this earth
believing You would come.

Now, in heaven

he is watching in utter joy
as the miracle of You unfolds.

Pray this Lazaroo with passionate rejoicing!

“I will surely gather all of you, Jacob; I will surely bring together the remnant of Israel. I will bring them together like sheep in a pen, like a flock in its pasture; the place will throng with people.”
(Micah 2:12)

You’ve done it, Jesus!

Exactly as You promised.

You brought back Your people to their homeland!

You reestablished the nation of Israel!

The place now throngs with people –

not only with descendants of Abraham
but with all who come to marvel.

Fully open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…as he promised…”
(1 Kings 2:24)

That’s You, Jesus…all the way.

You’ve made countless promises to those You love
and to Your enemies

and You keep every one of them.

We’re not used to that from anyone else!

Even the best of us fail to keep all our promises –

not because we’re unwilling or don’t try –

but because we’re human.

Sometimes we write checks
that our wishful thinking humanity can’t cash.

Thank God!
You have no such limitation.

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“…they will enter the land.”
(Deuteronomy 1:39)

These were the people no one thought would make it, Jesus!

But You were promising it would happen.

At the time, it looked impossible.

It was!

…for everybody but You.

You’re the God who makes the impossible possible.

You turn faded, black and white dreams
into Technicolor reality.

What impossible eventualities am I dreaming of, Father?

Which of these things nobody thinks can happen

are You about to bring to pass?

Pray this Lazaroo overwhelmed with gratitude:

“The LORD…appeared to me and said: ‘ I have watched over you…’”
(Exodus 3:16)

You’ve never appeared to me, Jesus –

at least not that I know! –

but You sure have watched over me.

You promised You would

and You’ve kept Your promise.

In fact, You’ve kept Your promises to me

far better than I’ve kept mine to You.

There’s nothing fair about that.

Since I’ve broken my promises
You have every right to break Yours.

But hallelujah!
You don’t.
