Pray this Lazaroo in humble gratitude:

“Now Cain said to his brother Abel, ‘Let’s go out to the field.’ While they were in the field, Cain attacked his brother Abel and killed him.
Then the Lord said to Cain, ‘Where is your brother Abel?’ ‘I don’t know,’ he replied. ‘Am I my brother’s keeper?’”
(Genesis 4:8-9)

Cain struck out, Jesus:

He deceived his brother.
He killed his brother.
He lied to God.

But I’ve struck out more times than Cain.

What can wash away my sins?
Nothing but Your blood, my Jesus.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“…the God of…Isaac…”
(Exodus 3:16)

It helps to see who You’re willing to be associated with, Jesus.

Isaac was born when his dad Abraham was 100 years old
and his mother Sarah was 90!

Abraham almost sacrificed him
because that’s what he thought You wanted.

No, Isaac wasn’t perfect.

He lied about his wife.
Played favorites with his children.

But You accomplished great things through this flawed man.

Please, LORD!

Accomplish great things through even more deeply flawed

me.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast hope:

“…the God of Abraham…”
(Exodus 3:16)

Abraham had flaws, Jesus.

He argued with You.

He was so afraid You wouldn’t protect him

that He told everyone his beautiful wife was his sister
and allowed her to be taken by another man to be his wife.

Twice.

But You chose him anyway

to be the founding father of Your great nation of Israel.

Like Abraham, I too am flawed, Father!

But You’ve chosen me anyway.
Use me for Your glory!

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful trust:

“Wisdom will save you…from men…who are devious in their ways.”
(Proverbs 2:12, 15)

Just as Herod lied to the magi claiming he wanted to worship You, Jesus

so there will be those who attempt to deceive me –

some of whom will hide behind seemingly “holy” purposes to do it.

It’s one thing to be able to tell that’s what’s going on…

quite another to have sufficient wisdom to know what to do about it.

That’s where You come in, isn’t it? 😉
