Pray this Lazaroo in never-say-die trust:

“You handed him over to be killed, and you disowned him before Pilate, though he had decided to let him go. You disowned the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you. You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead. We are witnesses of this.”
(Acts 3:13-15)

Peter let them have it with both barrels, Jesus.

He lifted You high and smacked them down low.

When everything’s on the line, Holy Spirit:

make me this bold!

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“…the way of the wicked is like deep darkness; they do not know what makes them stumble. My son, pay attention to what I say; turn your ear to my words. Do not let them out of your sight, keep them within your heart; for they are life to those who find them and health to one’s whole body.”
(Proverbs 4:19-22)

What a contrast, Jesus!

I get to choose:

be clueless about what caused
my last face plant

or live an overcoming life
in the Light of Your Word.

Pray this Lazaroo in heart-pounding love:

“During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with fervent cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission.”
(Hebrews 5:7)

The whole time You were here, Jesus

You knew why You’d come.

Even so, You begged to be delivered from death.

As He sometimes says to me
Your Father said, “no.”

But to our resurrection from the dead

He says, “Yes!”

Wednesday, December 6, 2023

 

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“…for any man or woman who approaches the king in the inner court without being summoned the king has but one law: that they be put to death unless the king extends the gold scepter to them and spares their lives. But thirty days have passed since I was called to go to the king.”
(Esther 4:11)

Esther had to plead with the king for the lives of her people, Jesus.

But to do so was to risk her own life.

Am I willing to risk my life

to save others?

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“…pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil people…”
(2 Thessalonians 3:2)

Sometimes these people seemingly pop up out of nowhere, Jesus.

But more times than not
I had a hand in bringing them into my life.

Of course, I didn’t know at the time
how much trouble they’d be.

But You did.

You’ve warned me repeatedly
about what happens
when I consort with the wrong people.

I don’t deserve deliverance from their clutches.

But in Your loving mercy
I’m begging You to do exactly that.

Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“…when David heard about this, he said, ‘I and my kingdom are forever innocent before the Lord concerning the blood of Abner son of Ner. May his blood fall on the head of Joab…”
(2 Samuel 3:28-29)

The thing is, Jesus

Your Name is EL DEAH.

You know.

Joab was, indeed, guilty.

The day came

when he paid with his life.

May I never forget Your Name, EL DEAH!

not only to waste no time lying to You

but also to rest assured that when I’m mistreated

You know.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that his life may also be revealed in our mortal body.”
(2 Corinthians 4:10-11)

That explains a lot, Jesus!

Not the explanation I was hoping for
but the one I fully embrace

confident that You know better than I do.

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told. On the eighth day, when it was time to circumcise the child, he was named Jesus, the name the angel had given him before he was conceived.”
(Luke 2:19-21)

Help me treasure up everything You’re doing in my life, Jesus

and ponder them in my heart

to discern Your perfect will for my life!

Pray this Lazaroo with determined faith:

“The priest is to take a handful of the finest flour and some olive oil, together with all the incense on the grain offering, and burn the memorial portion on the altar as an aroma pleasing to the Lord…For all generations to come it is his perpetual share…Whatever touches them will become holy.”
(Leviticus 6:15, 18)

This is my prayer, Jesus…

that whoever touches my life will be pointed to You –

the only one who can make them holy!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“The one who is victorious I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will they leave it. I will write on them the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on them my new name.”
(Revelation 3:12)

I thought I already had all the incentive I need, Jesus.

But this makes me want to strive like never before

to win each spiritual battle in my life!
