Pray this Lazaroo in unfettered worship:

“…Jesus Christ, the Father’s Son…”
(2 John 1:3)

That pretty much says it all, Jesus.

That’s what makes You different
raises You above the rest.

All the rest.

You’re not just the wisest person to ever live

not only the greatest prophet
not merely a stunning miracle-worker.

You’re The One.

The One to whom all the other (true) prophets pointed.
The One who makes demons tremble.

Alpha, Omega, Yahweh, Adonai, Creator, Abba

The only One who can save

me.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“…the LORD your God, who went ahead of you on your journey…to show you the way you should go.”
(Deuteronomy 1:32-33)

Wow.

This simplifies my life, Jesus!

In the past, I’ve tried to guess what lies ahead.

I’ve done research
leaned on my own experience
tapped into the expertise of others.

Results?

Mixed.

Win some…lose some.

A dart board might have been as effective.

But You go ahead of me!

All I have to do
is follow You.

Pray this Lazaroo in self-awareness:

“…he deceives himself…”
(James 1:26)

Is this the worst kind of deception, Jesus?

If not, it’s awfully close.

When somebody else deceives me, it’s tough enough

but at least I can identify the culprit
evaluate how I got duped
learn from my mistake.

But when I deceive myself I’ve got no one else to blame.

It’s much tougher to admit I’m the culprit

You’re my only hope, Holy Spirit!

Open my eyes
wise me up

Protect me from myself.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Hear this word the LORD has spoken…”
(Amos 3:1)

I want to hear every word You’ve spoken, Jesus!

Well…that’s not exactly what I mean.

I want to hear every word You’ve spoken…

…to me.

A lot of them are found in Your Word, Father.

Perhaps most of them.
But not all of them.

Some of them are spoken to me by You, Holy Spirit

deep within my soul.

May I take every word You speak to me

to heart.

Pray this Lazaroo with Godly discernment:

“Please ask King Solomon – he will not refuse you – “
(1 Kings 2:17)

That should have been Bathsheba’s first clue, Jesus:

Something about Adonijah’s request didn’t smell right.

Why didn’t he go to Solomon himself?

Because his request didn’t stand on its own merit.

He was hoping Solomon’s love for his mother
would blind him to its hidden agenda.

Help me take a lesson, Holy Spirit…

next time somebody asks me to do their dirty work.

 Pray this Lazaroo overcome with gratitude: 

“Let him who boasts boast in the Lord.”
(1 Corinthians 1:31)

Good advice, Jesus –

because everything I have comes from You.

Everything I’ve accomplished has been made possible by You:

You’re the one who breathed in me the breath of life.
Every skill, talent and ability I possess is a gift from You.

When an opportunity arises, You’re the one who creates it.

When the time is right to seize it
You, Holy Spirit, are the one who gives me the nudge.
