Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“My message and my preaching…”
(1 Corinthians 2:4)

The message and the preaching…

they’re not the same, are they, Jesus?

You’re the one who gives the message.

The preacher is the one who delivers it.

Many a great message

has been diminished by a poor preacher.

But Your Word is so powerful and compelling

that even the worst of preachers

if they manage to quote from the Bible

can watch in awe

as You totally transform their hearer’s lives.

Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“I write to you…”
(1 John 2:12)

John wrote to them, Jesus

and 2000 years later
he’s writing to me.

It’s as fresh to me in the 21st Century
as it was to them in the first.

That’s exactly the way You designed it

because what John wrote is Your Word
and Your Word is eternal

transformative not only for those living 6,000 years ago

or in the first century

but also for me –

and all who come after.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“…his blood will be on our head if a hand is laid on him.”
(Joshua 2:19)

Joshua’s spies were taking on themselves a huge responsibility, Jesus!

They were willing to be held accountable for the behavior
of Your entire army.

So my guess is, when they got back
they made the terms of their promise crystal clear.

But that raises the question:

Whose blood will be on my head
if I don’t make Your life-changing good news

crystal clear?

 Pray this Lazaroo with enhanced understanding: 

“…let me explain this to you…”
(Acts 2:14)

Eye-opening wording, Jesus.

Before I can help the people around me by explaining Your Word
they have to let me.

What a privilege it is to share Your life-changing truths!

But before they can do anyone any good
that person has to truly want to understand.

Otherwise, like good seed sown on hard, unresponsive, unyielding ground

Your Biblical precepts that have the power to transform
will fall on deaf, uncomprehending ears.
