Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“So Samuel told him everything, hiding nothing from him. Then Eli said, ‘He is the Lord; let him do what is good in his eyes.’”
(1 Samuel 3:18)

That was a brutal message to hear, Jesus.

But since it came from You
Eli submitted to Your Will.

Do I want to hear such an awful message from You?

No.

But it is the everlasting desire of my heart

that with me

You will do what is good in Your eyes.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face…”
(2 John 1:12)

Not so different from today, Jesus!

Now, Paul might write:

“I have so much to text you…
or email you…

“…but I don’t want to use my cell.”

The message is the same:

There’s just something special
about face to face.

One day in heaven, Jesus…

with You!

Raise your sights! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Then Jesus entered a house, and again a crowd gathered, so that he and his disciples were not even able to eat. When his family heard about this, they went to take charge of him, for they said, ‘He is out of his mind.’”
(Mark 3:20-21)

You didn’t come here to enjoy a good meal, Jesus.

Your message was a little bigger than that.

You came to transform lives

call people to a higher purpose
change their destination from hell to heaven.

Those who don’t believe that about You

are the ones who are out of their minds.

Pray this Lazaroo in faith-filled anticipation:

“As for other matters, brothers and sisters, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored, just as it was with you.”
(2 Thessalonians 3:1)

Paul was able to say that about Your believers in Thessalonica, Jesus…

may You be able to say that through me!

Work through me and those I love and with whom I serve

to spread Your message rapidly!

May the good news of Your salvation be honored

and may many come to faith in You!

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“…pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored…”
(2 Thessalonians 3:1)

Those two don’t always go together, Jesus.

When the good news about You spreads rapidly
people who prefer to remain in their sins get upset!

You tend to mess with their status quo.

On the other hand, when all those people are finding You

they testify!

They tell of Your wonders
sing your praises

and that brings due honor to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with determination:

“If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house…”
(2 John 1:10)

The people who enter my home influence me, Jesus

for good or bad.

They can encourage me in the right direction

or hinder me from following You with my whole heart.

The people I permit to enter my home

also send a message to everyone on the outside.

Rightly or wrongly, my acceptance of them
causes people to conclude I agree with them.

Get motivated! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“As for other matters, brothers and sisters, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly…”
(2 Thessalonians 3:1)

Through us, You’re establishing Your kingdom, Jesus

and You don’t want us dragging our feet.

You want us on high alert.
Time’s a-wasting!

People are dying without hearing about You!
Others are on the fence, for lack of good information.

It’s my job to do something about that.

You’ve told me to go tell.
I’d better get with it.

Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

“We have heard a message from the Lord: An envoy was sent to the nations to say, ‘Rise, let us go against her for battle…’”
(Obadiah 1:1)

You’re stirring up the nations against us, Jesus?

No. Not us.
Against our pride-filled, sinning brothers.

I’m sorry for them…

but thankful that we’re not the ones under Your wrath.

Except…this is a warning, isn’t it?

If you’re taking our brothers to the woodshed
we’ll be next –

if we follow their example of disobedience.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“They stumble because they disobey the message—which is also what they were destined for. But you are a chosen people…”
(1 Peter 2:8-9)

I hardly know what to do with this, Jesus.

To think that some people are destined to reject You
seems so unfair.

But to think that You chose and destined me to accept You?
That’s awesome!

Bottom line?

I trust You!
Your ways are far superior to mine.

And I am beyond grateful

to be included in Your wholly undeserved, unfathomable love!

Pray this Lazaroo with responsive faith:

“We have heard a message from the Lord: An envoy was sent to the nations to say, ‘Rise…’”
(Obadiah 1:1)

No more sitting down, Jesus!

Sure, there’s a time to kick back and relax

But there comes a day when that time ends

when it’s time to get back to work.

Not my work.
Yours.

Which time am I in, Holy Spirit?

Show me!

I don’t want to be standing when You’ve told me to sit
nor sitting when You’ve told me to “Rise!”
