Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“‘Go to Bethel and sin; go to Gilgal and sin yet more. Bring your sacrifices every morning, your tithes every three years. Burn leavened bread as a thank offering and brag about your freewill offerings—boast about them, you Israelites, for this is what you love to do,’ declares the Sovereign Lord.”
(Amos 4:4-5)

On the cusp of this New Year, Jesus

I’ve got to remember it’s not enough to jump through the hoops.

For You…

it’s all about my heart.

Pray this Lazaroo in utterly vulnerable trust:

“We have come to share in Christ, if indeed we hold our original conviction firmly to the very end. As has just been said: ‘Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion.’”
(Hebrews 3:14-15)

I’m holding firmly to my original conviction about You, Jesus

because You’re holding firmly to me.

I do not share in You because I’m holding on.

I hold on because – by grace alone –

You’ve chosen me.

Pray this Lazaroo with absolute sincerity:

“Rend your heart and not your garments.”
(Joel 2:13)

That had become the custom, hadn’t it, Jesus –

tearing their clothes upon hearing of something disastrous.

When that custom first began, it was no doubt powerful

because it came straight from the heart.

But over the years, people began doing it because it was expected

even when it didn’t truly touch their hearts.

O God! I know what You want!

Not merely my outward behavior.

In repentance…

You want my heart.

Pray this Lazaroo with mounting excitement:

“The Spirit then lifted me up and took me away…”
(Ezekiel 3:14)

This was happening in the vision You gave Ezekiel, Jesus –

a wondrous miracle of clarity and holy revelation!

Your visions are so real

that it’s hard to tell whether they’re happening in the body
or exclusively in the heart, soul, spirit, emotions and mind.

O Holy Spirit!

By Vision or Dream or in the body –
Lift me up and take me wherever You want me to go!

Pray this Lazaroo with single minded intent:

“…rid yourselves of all malice…”
(1 Peter 2:1)

Is there any malice in me, Jesus? Even a tiny shred of it?

If so, expunge every hint of it from every shadow and molecule
of my heart, mind, soul, emotions, body and being!

I know what it is to be the victim of malice.

It’s hell on earth.

No matter what anyone has said or done to me

I absolutely refuse to be guilty of a single
malicious thought, word or deed.

Pray this Lazaroo with bulldog faith:

“…the exiles from Jerusalem…”
(Obadiah 1:20)

Exiles come from a lot of places, Jesus…

but none more holy than Jerusalem.

To not be permitted to return to this blessed land

had to leave an incurable ache in the heart of each exile.

Some of us who can’t go there aren’t exiles.

We just don’t have the money to afford the trip.

Others of us long to go

and are simply trusting You to provide the way

in Your time.

Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…in my heart I am disturbed.”
(Lamentations 1:20)

It’s bad enough when something upsets my thinking, Jesus

but when the disturbance settles in my heart

I’ve got to address it
can’t put it off.

It affects everything I think, say and do

the expressions on my face.

You’re the One who disturbs the heart, aren’t You?

You create that inner disturbance

to get my attention about something You want me to do

or what You want me to stop.

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“…if anyone competes as an athlete, he does not receive the victor’s crown unless he competes according to the rules.”
(2 Timothy 2:5)

You’re telling me the same thing applies to me, aren’t You, Jesus?

If I want to win Heaven’s crown, Your one rule is pretty simple:

Believe in You.

Of course, if I truly believe in You,

I’ll love and obey You with all my heart, soul, mind and strength
and love my neighbor as myself.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your being:

“James, Peter and John, those esteemed as pillars…”
(Galatians 2:9)

I’d say so, Jesus!

James, your half-brother

author of the New Testament book that bears his name

Peter, one of Your twelve apostles

author of two New Testament books that bear his name

John, the beloved apostle

author of four New Testament books that bear his name

I’m no pillar in Your Church, Jesus

but I long to follow You as they did
with all my heart, soul, mind and strength.

Pray this Lazaroo overwhelmed with gratitude:

“…not see the first rays of dawn.”
(Job 3:9)

Some people never see the first rays of dawn, Jesus.

They’re fast asleep.

Others could if they wanted to

but they’re busy inside.

Still others can’t see the sun’s first rays or anything else

because they’re blind.

Those first rays are precious, Jesus!

May I never take them for granted.

They signify that You’ve granted me one more day

to serve You with all my heart, soul, mind and strength.
