Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“When the time came for the purification rites required by the Law of Moses, Joseph and Mary took him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord…and to offer a sacrifice in keeping with what is said in the Law of the Lord: ‘a pair of doves or two young pigeons.’”
(Luke 2:22, 24)

Joseph and Mary did what they knew to do for You, Jesus.

Such small things.

But they were obedient to Your Word

leaving the outcome in Your Father’s Hands.

That’s all I can do

but I had better make sure I do it!

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 unshakable belief:

“So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them.”
(Luke 2:16-18)

That’s what You want me to do, isn’t it, Jesus?

Spread the word concerning what has been told me about You

in Your holy Word

and in my own Deep, Daily, Moment-by-Moment

1on1 relationship with You.

Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“…Mary…was pledged to be married…and was expecting a child…the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.”
(Luke 2:5-7)

Just like then, Jesus

some of those You love so much
have no room for You in their hearts.

May my heart be so full of love for You

that it makes up the difference!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“Her mother-in-law asked her, ‘Where did you glean today? Where did you work? Blessed be the man who took notice of you! Then Ruth told her mother-in-law about the one at whose place she had been working. ‘The name of the man I worked with today is Boaz,’ she said. ‘The Lord bless him!’ Naomi said to her daughter-in-law.”
(Ruth 2:19-20)

Totally orchestrated by You, Jesus –

ancestors of Mary and Joseph…

and You!

Gotta love Grandpa Boaz and Grandma Ruth!

Tuesday, September 7, 2021

 

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

‘Woman, why do you involve me?’ Jesus replied. ‘My hour has not yet come.’ His mother said to the servants, ‘Do whatever he tells you.’ Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons. Jesus said to the servants, ‘Fill the jars with water’; so they filled them to the brim.”
(John 2:4-7

Mary didn’t tell you what to do, Jesus.

All she did was present the need

and leave it up to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home.”
(Luke 1:56)

What an awesome time those three months had to be, Jesus!

Your mother Mary, probably 12 or 13 years old
Elizabeth, well over 60

both filled with inexpressible wonder
pregnant because of a miracle
worked by Your heavenly Father.

Each of them faced unique challenges.
They needed each other, didn’t they?

O God!

Please put me with the right people

so we can encourage one another.

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

(Luke 1:49)

That’s how Mary felt when she was pregnant with You, Jesus!

And she was right.

To be chosen as the mother of the Savior of the world?

Priceless.

You have done great things for me, too, Mighty One!

To be chosen as the child of the Creator of the Universe!
The Alpha and Omega! The Bright Morning Star!
The One who loves with an Everlasting Love?

Priceless.

Your mother was right, Jesus.

All generations have called her blessed!

She gave birth to the One who gave life to her!

She got to see You grow up – literally, the perfect child.
She saw You work miracles, teach truth, become famous.

But Simeon’s prophecy that a sword would pierce her soul

also came true when she saw You crucified.

May I never forget that on this earth

pain accompanies blessing.
