Pray this Lazaroo with sincere humility:

“…Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will not welcome us.”
(3 John 1:9)

Well, no, Jesus.

There was no way on earth
that Diotrephes would welcome John.

If he did, he’d no longer be first!

By comparison to the famous Apostle John
Diotrephes would appear to be a nobody.

He’d rather miss out on John’s incomparable teaching

than give up his position of self-importance.

May I never miss out on your best

because of my pigheaded desire to be a big shot.

Pray this Lazaroo in bottomless trust:

“…heard what John had said and…followed Jesus.”
(John 1:40)

I’ve heard what John said, Jesus –

and I’m following You.

Your words through John and the other Bible authors

have the ring of truth like no other.

But that’s not all.

They’re backed up by fact.

Nor is that all.

They’re confirmed by my experience.

If it sounds like the truth

looks like the truth

and lives like the truth

I’m staking my life on it:

It’s the Truth.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.”
(3 John 1:4)

Why did John feel that way, Jesus?

It was because he had given his whole life for this, wasn’t it?

Every teacher hopes their words are more than heard.

They long for the truths they teach
to change the lives of their hearers.

May John, now in heaven, continue to experience great joy

as he looks down and watches me.
