Pray this Lazaroo in heartfelt gratitude:

“Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”
(Luke 2:11-12)

Was there ever a day this great, Jesus?

Well, there was the day You died for the sins of the world

including mine.

And then, three days later…

the day when You rose from the dead
defeating death, hell and the grave
for all who believe!

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“…to fulfill what was said through the prophet Isaiah: ‘…the people living in darkness have seen a great light’…Jesus began to preach, ‘Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.’”
(Matthew 4:14, 16-17)

That wasn’t the only Old Testament prophecy You fulfilled, Jesus!

There are at least 323 others.

Mathematician Peter Stoner calculated the probability

of one person fulfilling just 48 of them.

The odds against that?

One in 10, followed by 157 zeros!

Oh, yeah.

You’re the Messiah.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser focused intent:

“As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you.”
(1 John 2:24)

It doesn’t do much good, Jesus

to hear the great, life-changing truths of Your Word

then fail to remember them

not build every aspect of my life upon them.

You’ve told me to see to it that I don’t let that happen.

That means I’m the one responsible.

If I don’t do it
I have no one to blame but myself.

Pray this Lazaroo in stunned gratitude:

“In every province to which the edict and order of the king came, there was great mourning among the Jews, with fasting, weeping and wailing. Many lay in sackcloth and ashes.”
(Esther 4:3)

Horrible news does that to us, Jesus!

For the Jews, this news was about as bad as it gets.

The king had issued a decree
that made it legal to destroy their entire nation.

But as You do again and again for Your hurting people

You were about to turn that bad news upside down!

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“…the Lord your God had made his spirit stubborn and his heart obstinate in order to give him into your hands, as he has now done. The Lord said to me, ‘See, I have begun to deliver Sihon and his country over to you. Now begin to conquer and possess his land.’”
(Deuteronomy 2:30-31)

When You’re ready to do something, Jesus

You don’t have to wait for a person to cooperate.
You can make them do it.

Great God!

I’m cooperating!

Make me what You want me to be!

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“…there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, ‘Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people.’”
(Luke 2:8-10)

Sometimes when You show up I’m afraid, Jesus

because I mistake what You’re doing for something bad.

But it isn’t.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Surely he has done great things! Do not be afraid, land of Judah; be glad and rejoice. Surely the Lord has done great things! Do not be afraid, you wild animals, for the pastures in the wilderness are becoming green. The trees are bearing their fruit; the fig tree and the vine yield their riches.”
(Joel 2:20-22)

It’s all about You, Jesus

not my circumstances.

It doesn’t matter that my present landscape is barren.

You’re faithful.
You’re on Your way.

As I keep my eyes fixed on You

my desert will blossom!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“He who forms the mountains, who creates the wind, and who reveals his thoughts to mankind, who turns dawn to darkness, and treads on the heights of the earth—the Lord God Almighty is his name.”
(Amos 4:13)

You Are Awesome, Jesus!

To think that You, the Creator of Everything
want to spend 1on1 time with me

sharing Your thoughts
transforming my life
giving me hope and a future.

Great and Mighty One!

You’re my Best Friend.

Pray this Lazaroo in total awareness:

“King Nebuchadnezzar made an image of gold, sixty cubits high and six cubits wide, and set it up on the plain of Dura in the province of Babylon. He then summoned the satraps, prefects, governors, advisers, treasurers, judges, magistrates and all the other provincial officials to come to the dedication of the image he had set up.”
(Daniel 3:1-2)

King Nebuchadnezzar got a bit full of himself, didn’t he, Jesus?

He thought he had made himself great.

He hadn’t.

As with every one of my accomplishments

it’s all You.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“‘I am against you,’ declares the Lord Almighty. ‘I will burn up your chariots in smoke, and the sword will devour your young lions.’”
(Nahum 2:13)

The young lions are the future, Jesus.

If You punish a nation by destroying the best of their youth
You doom that country to become increasingly weak

eventually to disappear

which is exactly what happened in 637

to the once great city of Nineveh.

O God!

I beg You: Spare our young lions!
