Pray this Lazaroo in total trust:

“Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in common. They sold property and possessions to give to anyone who had need.”
(Acts 2:43-45)

Were these the greatest days of Your Church, Jesus?

Was this the purest expression of what You had in mind
when You laid down Your life for us?

You’re the Same – yesterday, today and forever.

Great God:

Do it again!

Pray this Lazaroo with antennae up:

“…if he did not spare the ancient world when he brought the flood on its ungodly people…”
(2 Peter 2:5)

I think I can see where this is going, Jesus.

You’re pointing out the punishment
You were forced to mete out years ago

to remind me that You’re the same
yesterday, today and forever.

Yes, You’re slow to anger.

But if I mistake Your loving patience for weakness

I will discover to my sorrow
that my sins will find me out.

Pray this Lazaroo with bated breath:

“…miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you…”
(Acts 2:22)

…and You’re still doing them today, Jesus!

You’ve worked miracles!
Have I had eyes to see them?

You’ve performed wonders!
Have I been paying attention?

You’ve shown me signs!
Have I had a discerning heart to read them?

You’re the same, Jesus –

yesterday, today and forever.

Give me eyes that see…

a mind that pays attention…

a discerning heart 

because I don’t want to miss a single thing!

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“Jesus…stayed outside in lonely places…”
(Mark 1:45)

The crowds wouldn’t leave You alone, would they, Jesus?

Once they discovered You could heal, cast out demons
feed thousands of people with one boy’s lunch
teach like no one they’d ever heard

they pursued You day and night.

You’re the same yesterday, today and forever.

You remain a miracle-working God.

Now in Your glorified body, You don’t need sleep or rest.

You invite me to passionately pursue You

day and night.
