Pray this Lazaroo with immediate correction:

“All those who came out of Egypt—all the men of military age—died in the wilderness on the way after leaving Egypt. All the people that came out had been circumcised, but all the people born in the wilderness during the journey from Egypt had not.”
(Joshua 5:4-5)

Why do I put off doing the right thing, Jesus?

Why don’t I instantly obey?

It’s a spirit of rebellion, isn’t it?

Disguising my disobedience behind:

“Yes, I’m going to do it…but not right now.”

Away with that ugly sin, LORD!

This very moment: I choose You!

Pray this Lazaroo with overflowing joy:

“By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know was made strong. It is Jesus’ name and the faith that comes through him that has completely healed him, as you can all see.”
(Acts 3:16)

What a powerful witness, Jesus!

Thank You for instantly healing that man –
lame from birth!

Of course, the day came when he died.

No matter how many miracles You perform on earth
they’re temporary…except for one:

Your gift to all who believe
of eternal life.

Take a second look, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Then Peter said, “‘Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.’ Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong. He jumped to his feet and began to walk.”
(Acts 3:6-8)

What Peter had sure beat silver and gold, Jesus!

How many times have I, like that beggar
wanted so much less than You were willing to give?

O God!

Increase my faith!

Pray this Lazaroo in sobered understanding:

“…if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God.”
(2 Corinthians 4:3-4)

That explains so much, Jesus –

why some people instantly respond to the good news about You
and others in the same room at the same time reject Your love.

With everything in me:

Thank You for lifting the veil from my mind!

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“The tempter came to him and said, ‘If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.’ Jesus answered, ‘It is written: “Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.”’”
(Matthew 3:3-4)

That’s how to deal with Satan’s temptations, isn’t it, Jesus?

Quote Your Word to him
then don’t budge an inch.

Of course, I have to instantly be ready with Your Word

the moment temptation comes.

Maybe I’d better do a little more homework.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“You will be filled with shame instead of glory.”
(Habakkuk 2:16)

No!

That can’t happen, Jesus.
Not if I have anything to say about it.

Well…even more importantly:
Not if I have anything I can do about it.

And I can!

I can repent of my sins and stop committing them –
especially those I’ve been guilty of, again and again.

I can obey You – instantly – when I see in Your Word
what You want me to do.

Glory!

Not shame.

Pray this Lazaroo with full attention:

“All that night Abner and his men marched through the Arabah. They crossed the Jordan, continued through the morning hours and came to Mahanaim. Then Joab stopped pursuing Abner and assembled the whole army.”
(2 Samuel 2:29-30)

It’s no fun to be chased by an enemy, Jesus –

especially one that is bigger, stronger, faster, better equipped.

But when that happens to me, I cry out to You!

You’re the only one who can instantly stop them in their tracks.

Pray this Lazaroo in obedient belief:

“Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.”
(Proverbs 3:7-8)

When we achieve something, there’s an inherent danger, isn’t there, Jesus?

that we will think our own cleverness brought it about
instead of You.

May we be terrified by those evil thoughts –

instantly shutting them down.

Not only will we do what’s right spiritually…

but Your physical blessings will be ours!
