Pray this Lazaroo in wholehearted adoration:

“…to the church that meets in your home…”
(Philemon 1:2)

That’s how it started, isn’t it, Jesus?

In addition to gathering in the temple courts

small groups of Your people
met together in one another’s homes.

There they ate together
studied Your Word together
prayed together.

Certainly, we have awesome electronic tools at our disposal

to facilitate those two ways of meeting as Your Church.

But can we possibly improve on that simple plan today?

No.
We can’t.

Pray this Lazaroo in respectful awe:

“So when we could stand it no longer, we thought it best to be left by ourselves in Athens.”
(1 Thessalonians 3:1)

Paul longed to return to the believers in Thessalonica, Jesus

but Satan blocked him.

We don’t know how or why.

But You either let it happen or caused it to happen
because Satan can thwart no plan of Yours!

Was sending Timothy in his place second best?

No.

You’re Sovereign.

That was Your plan all along.

Pray this Lazaroo in heart-melting gratitude:

“Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved…”
(2 Timothy 2:15)

That’s what I long for, Jesus!

with all my heart.

But how?

Seriously, how?

You know me.
You know what a mess I am.

If You wanted to

You could remind me of every sin I’ve ever committed.
What are they, now? In the billions?

But wait a minute!

Because I’ve put my faith in You
You’ve erased all my sins from Your record.

Wow.
That’s how.
