Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with fervent cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission. Son though he was, he learned obedience from what he suffered…”
(Hebrews 5:7-8)

In spite of Your sinless perfection, Jesus

if the suffering You endured was necessary for you to learn obedience

who am I to think I’m going to learn obedience

without suffering?

Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“‘In spite of all this, her unfaithful sister Judah did not return to me with all her heart, but only in pretense,’ declares the Lord. The Lord said to me, ‘Faithless Israel is more righteous than unfaithful Judah. ‘”
(Jeremiah 3:10-11)

No matter what words I utter

You can tell when I’m half-hearted, Jesus.

But that’s not what I ever want to be with You!

I want to give You everything I’ve got

because on the cross

that’s how much You gave me.

Pray this Lazaroo in chastened awareness:

“…Jesus asked them, ‘Which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?’ But they remained silent. He looked around at them in anger and, deeply distressed at their stubborn hearts, said to the man, Stretch out your hand.’ He stretched it out, and his hand was completely restored.”
(Mark 3:4-5)

That’s how You work nearly every miracle, Jesus –

in spite of our animosity, doubt and outright disbelief.

True, some miracles are granted to those who have faith

which comes directly from You

as a gift.
