Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people.”
(Titus 2:11)

That’s just what it took for me, Jesus –

Your grace.

Not my gifts, skills and abilities

not my sterling character

not my spotless behavior.

I’m woefully lacking in all of that.

But You, in Your love, mercy and grace

plucked me from the fiery pits of hell where I was headed

saved me from myself
and chose me for Yourself.

I am eternally grateful!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“For who makes you different from anyone else? What do you have that you did not receive? And if you did receive it, why do you boast as though you did not? Already you have all you want! Already you have become rich! You have begun to reign—and that without us!”
(1 Corinthians 4:7-8)

My stupid, blind, unreasoning pride, Jesus!

Where does it come from?

Certainly not from You.

I do believe

it has the sulfurous smell from the fiery pits of hell
all over it.

Pray this Lazaroo in life-changing belief:

“But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God…”
(Romans 3:21-23)

I cannot thank You enough for this, Jesus!

By the standards of the Law, I was condemned to hell.

But because I believe in You –

your death, burial and resurrection –

I have eternal life!

Raise your sights! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Then Jesus entered a house, and again a crowd gathered, so that he and his disciples were not even able to eat. When his family heard about this, they went to take charge of him, for they said, ‘He is out of his mind.’”
(Mark 3:20-21)

You didn’t come here to enjoy a good meal, Jesus.

Your message was a little bigger than that.

You came to transform lives

call people to a higher purpose
change their destination from hell to heaven.

Those who don’t believe that about You

are the ones who are out of their minds.

Sunday, December 17, 2023

 

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“…like animals they too will perish. They will be paid back with harm for the harm they have done.”
(2 Peter 2:12-13)

That’s both a harsh word, Jesus

and an immensely comforting one.

Do I want everyone to get what they deserve?

No.

In that case, I’d go to hell.

But when evil people arrogantly, relentlessly, unrepentantly harm others?

The purity of Your righteousness
demands an accounting.

Nevertheless, I will pray for their repentance and restoration

until it’s too late.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.”
(James 3:6)

I don’t like to think of my tongue like this, Jesus!

But I wonder how many people have felt the fires of hell

from some of the harsh, judgmental, evil words
I have spoken over my lifetime.

May it never again be so!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house or welcome them.”
(2 John 1:10)

This sounds rude, Jesus…

but it isn’t.
It’s life-saving.

I shouldn’t welcome a child-molester into a home with small children, either.

As bad as that would be
a spirit-molester would be infinitely worse.

When a heretical teacher leads people astray

it’s not just life and death that are at stake.
The stakes are eternal life and death.

Heaven…and hell.

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!

Saturday, June 10, 2023

 

Pray this Lazaroo with a heart full of love:

“Be merciful…”
(Jude 1:22)

I’ve got a question, Jesus:

Why is it so hard for me to be merciful to others

while being the grateful recipient
of all this mercy I’m receiving from You?

I know what I deserve –

and it ain’t peaches and cream.

I deserve dismemberment, humiliation and hell.
Instead, You’ve given me life, golden opportunities and heaven.

Surely, I can muster up a little of Your mercy toward others!

You’ve made it pretty clear:

If I don’t

my own mercy could come to a halt.
