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

“…he was afraid to go there.”
(Matthew 2:22)

You haven’t given me a spirit of fear, Jesus –

but a spirit of power, love, self-discipline.

There’s no place You send me

that I need fear.

But there are places You forbid me to go.

I’d blessed well better be scared to go there!

How can I expect You to protect me

when I blatantly disobey?

Lead me in Your way everlasting, Father!

And keep my britches
out of the ditches.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…done in the ungodly way…”
(Jude 1:15)

Doing the right thing is important, Jesus.

But I’ve got to do the right thing
in the right way.

Yes, You want me to give to the poor

but not disrespectfully, carelessly, contemptuously.
You want me to treat them with dignity and love, as equals.

Yes, You want me to serve

but not as though I’m doing people a favor.

Instead, realizing I’m the one favored
to be so privileged to serve.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfill his promises to her!”
(Luke 1:45)

You always fulfill Your promises, Jesus –

but in Your way and time.

When my schedule conflicts with Yours

I’m tempted to think it’s never going to happen.

When my way of doing it blinds me to Your superior plan

I can totally miss what You’re up to.

O God!

Help me rest in the certainty of Your promises
with eyes that see.

Stay focused as you pray this Lazaroo:

 “But you have turned from the way…”
(Malachi 2:8)

Your way is the only road worth traveling, Jesus –

where joy arises
where growth occurs
where good takes place
where people are healed
where hope springs eternal
where amazing things happen
where bad people become good
where good people become great
where nobodies become somebody
where broken relationships are restored

Why would I ever turn from Your way?

            There is not one good reason
            In all this sick old world.

Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…the whole house of Israel is…obstinate.”
(Ezekiel 3:7)

Obstinate is a pretty tough state to be in, Jesus.

Clueless would be better.
So would ignorant.
Helpless.
Stupid.

But obstinate means stubborn.

Hardheaded.
Unwilling.
Mulish.
Self-willed.

Refusing to do it Your way if it means I have to change.

And it does.
It always does.

Because my way is the highway

that leads to destruction.

Your way is the narrow way

the only way
that leads to joy, fulfillment

Life.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“…you continue to walk in it.”
(3 John 1:3)

Walking in the truth is both easy and hard, Jesus.

It’s easy because it’s best.
It’s safest.
It’s right.
It works.

It’s hard because the moment I choose the truth

I pick up a ferocious enemy.

Satan does everything in his power to get me to back off the truth

which makes it hard to continue to walk in it.

But I do…

because Your way
is the only way.
