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 humble adulation:

“God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.”
(Colossians 1:27)

Absolutely, Jesus!

A rich, glorious, glory-anticipating total mystery
that I gladly embrace with all my heart

to the very marrow of my bones:

You!

The Creator of the universe and everything in it
King of kings and LORD of lords
Savior of everyone in the world who believes

living in me!

Oh, HALLELUJAH!

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful humility:

“…if we are faithless, he will remain faithful, for he cannot disown himself.”
(2 Timothy 2:13)

This boggles my mind, Jesus.

When I deserve to be kicked to the curb
or tossed in the trash bin

You stay true to me
because warts and all
I belong to You!

First of all –

HALLELUJAH!

What love! What hope! What joy!
What a sense of security is mine!

And what an example You’ve set for me

to treat my disgraceful Christian brothers and sisters.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“His purpose was to create in himself one new humanity out of the two, thus making peace, and in one body to reconcile both of them to God through the cross, by which he put to death their hostility.”
(Ephesians 2:15-16)

You’re talking about Jews and Gentiles, Jesus

but this miraculous, peacemaking gift You give
has the power to erase animosity
between any two groups of people.

HALLELUJAH!

There are a couple of groups
I’d really like to see You unite!

Pray this Lazaroo with spiritual eyes wide open:

“This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words.”
(1 Corinthians 2:13)

There’s a constant battle, isn’t there, Jesus? –

between human wisdom
and the wisdom that comes only from You.

Human wisdom – along with its deceptions and limitations – 

is all around me.

But Your wisdom is in Your Word…

through Your Scripturally faithful teachers…

and in me!

HALLELUJAH!

God grant me supernatural discernment!

Pray this Lazaroo in up-close-and-personal faith:

“…keep a distance of about two thousand cubits between you and the ark; do not go near it.”
(Joshua 3:4)

You gave them a dramatic illustration of Your absolute holiness, Jesus –

unapproachable by sinful human beings.

If they carelessly drew any closer

or dared to reach out and touch the ark itself

they would die.

Oh, how different now!

HALLELUJAH!

At your death the temple curtain that blocked us from entering Your Presence

was torn in two, from top to bottom!

Keep first things first, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Another thing you do…”
(Malachi 2:13)

Just when I think I’m getting away scot-free with my disobedience, Jesus

I’m reminded that You see everything I do
hear everything I say
know everything I think.

When I repent, do You refuse to remember my sins?

Yes. You do.

HALLELUJAH!

You remove my inexcusably wicked acts
as far away from me as the east is from the west!

But the operative phrase is:

“When I repent.”

Which I’d better do.

Right now.

Pray this Lazaroo in unvarnished awareness:

“’Although you wash yourself with soap and use an abundance of cleansing powder, the stain of your guilt is still before me,’ declares the Sovereign Lord.”
(Jeremiah 2:22)

I can’t wash away my own sin, can I, Jesus?

A physical scrubbing can’t erase a spiritual offense.

My only hope is Your love, mercy and forgiveness!

And on the cross – HALLELUJAH!

You demonstrated all three.

Accordingly, I’ve got to place 0% of my faith in me

and 100% in You.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“So Solomon removed Abiathar from the priesthood of the Lord, fulfilling the word the Lord had spoken at Shiloh about the house of Eli.”
(1 Kings 2:27)

When You say it, Jesus

it gets done.

Sometimes we have to wait –

for what seems to us like a long time –

but when Your Word comes true, we see…

not only that You kept Your Word
but that You fulfilled it in the perfect way
and in the perfect time.

HALLELUJAH!
