Pray this Lazaroo with an open heart:

‘In that day each of you will invite your neighbor to sit under your vine and fig tree,’ declares the Lord Almighty.”
(Zechariah 3:10)

That is a day, Jesus! A very special day.

It’s one thing to have enough for my family, my friends and myself.

But it’s a new day
when I have enough to share with my neighbors
some of whom, perhaps, I hardly know.

You love generosity.

But there’s a reason for that:

Unimaginable Generosity is who You Are!

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus, sends you greetings.”
(Philemon 1:23)

A couple of jailbirds sending a letter to the handful of people who attend a little house church in Colossae, Jesus.

Small potatoes?
Hardly.

Since then, billions of people have read the translations of its 335 Greek words

in more than five billion Bibles
printed in more than 1,551 languages!

You’re the God who can take the little I do in Your love and strength

and make it gargantuan.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“…receiving no help from the pagans.”
(3 John 1:7)

Is this a big ol’ surprise, Jesus?

No.
Hardly.

Pagans aren’t in the habit of helping me – or any of Your followers.

In fact, just the opposite.

They tend to get in our way

quite frequently opposing us.

So, receiving no help from the pagans

is no excuse for not being about Your business –

the business of sharing Your gospel with pagans

and being of eternal help to them.
