Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

“…the house of Joseph a flame…”
(Obadiah 1:18)

What an amazing prediction, Jesus!

Those who heard Obadiah’s prophecy in his day would have assumed he was referring only to the patriarch Joseph, son of Jacob.

But none could have guessed there would be another Joseph you would raise up 858 years later

to become the husband of a pregnant virgin named Mary
to provide a home and loving care for the Flame-Bearer of the ages

You!
Son of God.

Pray this Lazaroo in gratitude:

“…she entered Zechariah’s home and greeted Elizabeth.”
(Luke 1:39)

Mary couldn’t wait to go to Elizabeth, Jesus.

Here she was, an unmarried virgin, pregnant with You.
Nobody – before or since – has been in Your mother’s shoes.

But Elizabeth was close.

Although past the age of childbearing
she was also pregnant with a miracle child.

Everyone’s relationship with You is unique, Jesus.

But thanks for putting people in my life
with whom I can – at least a little – relate.

Pray this Lazaroo with faith-energized anticipation:

“At that time Mary got ready…”
(Luke 1:39)

What an insight into the kind of girl Your mom was, Jesus!

No sooner does she hear Your Father’s plans for her
than she takes action to get ready for Your birth.

That’s faith, isn’t it?

All she had to go on
was the word of someone who said he was an angel

then disappeared.

May I be the kind of person who takes action

the moment I see it in Your Word.
