Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“The Jews then responded to him, ‘What sign can you show us to prove your authority to do all this?’ Jesus answered them, ‘Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.’”
(John 2:18-19)

You Are God, Jesus.

You proved it by Your teaching and miracles.

But when You were publicly executed and buried –

then rose from the dead exactly as You promised?
More than 500 witnesses?

That seals the deal.
Case closed.

Stay focused, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Have you suffered so much for nothing – if it really was for nothing? Does God give you his Spirit and work miracles among you because you observe the law, or because you believe what you heard?”
(Galatians 3:4)

Paul’s getting a little perturbed at them, Jesus.

They’re still trying to work their way to heaven

instead of trusting what You did on the cross
as payment in full for their sins.

Please don’t let me make the same mistake!

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“Choose twelve men from among the people, one from each tribe, and tell them to take up twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan, from right where the priests are standing, and carry them over with you and put them down at the place where you stay tonight.”
(Joshua 4:2-3)

You wanted to make certain they remembered this miracle, didn’t You, Jesus?

May I never, never, never forget all You have done for me

…even if I have to erect a pile of stones somewhere!

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“…the people crossed over opposite Jericho. The priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord stopped in the middle of the Jordan and stood on dry ground, while all Israel passed by until the whole nation had completed the crossing on dry ground.”
(Joshua 3:16-17)

Moses gets all the attention for miraculously crossing the Red Sea, Jesus

but You also did the same thing through Joshua!

Second time or no, a miracle is a miracle.

For the second googolth time, Father
keep working Your miracles through us…

…and unworthy me.

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“The sun will set for the prophets, and the day will go dark for them. The seers will be ashamed and the diviners disgraced. They will all cover their faces because there is no answer from God.”
(Micah 3:6-7)

That’s the price of disobedience, isn’t it, Jesus?

The miracles disappear.
The true prophets come up empty.

All that’s left are false prophets
who prophesy the delusions of their own minds.

O LORD!

Send a revival!
Send a revival!
Send a revival!

Pray this Lazaroo in utter awe:

“’How do you know me?’ Nathanael asked. Jesus answered, ‘I saw you while you were still under the fig tree before Philip called you.’”
(John 1:48)

Boom.

Just like that, Jesus –
You proved who You Are to Nathanael.

You don’t do that every time.

Often, You cut back on the miracles
revealing Yourself more subtly

though – for those seeking You with all their hearts –
no less convincingly.

I’m one who seeks You with all my heart!

And I’m convinced.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.”
(1 Corinthians 2:8)

It seems so clear to me, Jesus –

why not them?

They saw You face-to-Face, in the flesh!

…while I never have.

They were witnesses to Your miracles!

…while I’ve only read about them.

They heard You speak!

…while I still eagerly long to hear Your voice.

But You’ve granted me

the gift of faith.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“They…forded the river…”
(Joshua 2:23)

– the very river the entire army was about to cross on dry land, Jesus!

But this first time
Joshua’s two spies had to get wet to make it across.

No surprise.

You do it both ways, don’t You?

Sometimes You perform a miracle.

But most of the time You supply the strength
for me to accomplish Your tasks the old-fashioned way

requiring me to work, stretch, struggle.

But that’s okay!

Either way…

I win.

Pray this Lazaroo with bated breath:

“…miracles, wonders and signs, which God did among you…”
(Acts 2:22)

…and You’re still doing them today, Jesus!

You’ve worked miracles!
Have I had eyes to see them?

You’ve performed wonders!
Have I been paying attention?

You’ve shown me signs!
Have I had a discerning heart to read them?

You’re the same, Jesus –

yesterday, today and forever.

Give me eyes that see…

a mind that pays attention…

a discerning heart 

because I don’t want to miss a single thing!

Pray this Lazaroo in holy awareness:

“He has performed mighty deeds with his arm…”
(Luke 1:51)

Mighty deeds are Your specialty, Jesus.

Praise be to Your glorious Name!

But that’s not the phrase that catches my eye.

Your mom said You performed them with Your arm –
and that’s before she had seen You work any miracle.

She was referring to Your heavenly Father.

Strictly speaking, God is Spirit. He has no arms.

But You were His arm on this earth for 33 years

as now…am I.
