Monday, February 1, 2021

 

Pray this Lazaroo in overcoming faith:

“Antipas, my faithful witness, who was put to death…”
(Revelation 2:13)

Oh, Jesus.

My first thought is, “Oh, no! Poor Antipas!”

But then I realize his death took him straight to heaven!

I can feel sorry for his friends and loved ones
but not for him.

My second thought is, “Oh, no! WHY Antipas?”

I mean, You Yourself said he was your “faithful witness.”

But then I envision the heavenly welcome he received

as Your faithful martyr.

Wow.

Pray this Lazaroo with gratitude, all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“…he cannot disown himself.”
(2 Timothy 2:13)

Do I deserve to be kicked out of Your Church, Jesus?

Yes.
You’re perfect and I’m not.

Do I deserve to be excluded from heaven?

Yes.
You’re sinless.
I’m sinful.

Do I deserve to spend eternity in hell?

Absolutely.
I have knowingly, premeditatedly sinned.
Many times.

But I remain in Your Church. I’m going to heaven, not hell!

I put my trust in You alone.

You and I
are joined at the heart.

Pray this Lazaroo in triumphant faith:

“…it was impossible for death to keep its hold on him.”
(Acts 2:24)

Oh, HALLELUJAH, Jesus!

Of course it was impossible for death to keep its hold on You –
You’re the Author of Life!

All things have been created through You and for You –

things in heaven and on earth
visible and invisible

whether thrones or powers
or rulers or authorities.

And because by faith I live in You

it’s impossible for death to keep its hold on me!

Rejoice! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“As you have heard from the beginning…”
(2 John 1:6)

I’m thinking back to my beginning with You, Jesus!

The day when You drew me to Yourself.
The moment when I realized I believed!

The prayer I prayed, confessing my sinfulness
asking You to forgive me, to save me

to enter my life and lead me wherever You desire
all the way to heaven.

I’m still on that journey!

Closer than ever
trusting You every step of the way.

Pray this Lazaroo in relaxed anticipation:

“…the exiles…will possess the towns of the Negev.”
(Obadiah 1:20)

Finding out they were going to be given towns

probably sounded great, Jesus…

until they found out they were in a desert

of brown, rocky, dusty mountains
filled with deep craters and dry riverbeds.

Inhospitable? Sure.

But they were exiles.
They made do.

My accommodations on this earth are temporary.

Until I arrive at my permanent home in heaven

I’ll take what I get
and not throw a fit.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“…the sound of the wings of the living creatures brushing against each other and the sound of the wheels beside them, a loud rumbling sound.”
(Ezekiel 3:13)

Does it get any more powerful than this, Jesus? Any more life-changing?

These visions You gave Ezekiel give me
a glimpse of what awaits me in heaven –

because I’ve put my faith and trust in You.

I didn’t get to see and hear what Ezekiel saw and heard –

but one day I will!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“We who are Jews by birth…”
(Galatians 2:15)

Paul had that honored standing, Jesus.

But those who don’t have hope!

You’ve offered all who are not Jews by birth

the opportunity to become Jews

by rebirth.

In fact, every Jew by birth who desires to make heaven his home

has to become one by rebirth!

That’s hard for a natural-born Jew to accept, Jesus –

until she gratefully acknowledges You as her promised Messiah
in prophetic fulfillment of her Jewish heritage.

Pray this Lazaroo in fierce confidence:

“…but there is a God in heaven…”
(Daniel 2:28)

That’s my comfort, Jesus!

You Exist. You’re real. You’re There.

You’re here!

When people misunderstand what I’m trying to do and berate me, this is why I can sit there and take it:

“Yeah, ‘…but there is a God in heaven!’”

When my enemies attack me and attempt to destroy me and the work I’m trying so hard to do for you, this is what keeps me plugging away:

“Yeah, ‘…but there is a God in heaven!’”

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

(Ezekiel 3:12)

I cannot begin to comprehend the magnitude of this praise, Jesus.

Oh, to be there in heaven among countless throngs of angels
singing with voices far surpassing any choir on earth

in impossibly close, perfect, thousands-part harmony
rendering gorgeous notes inconceivable

to the unaided human ear

in all the languages of earth and heaven
with depth of meaning so rich
that my heart bursts in adoration.

Pray this Lazaroo in overwhelmed gratitude and love:

“…remember that at that time you were…excluded from citizenship in Israel…”
(Ephesians 2:12)

Because I believe in You, Jesus

I’m a Christian.
My home is in heaven.
I’m part of Your Church.

But may I never forget the miracle You performed when I prayed to receive You as my Savior:

You included me in Israel!

I’m now eligible for every promise You’ve ever made to Your dearly loved people.

I, who was once an outcast
