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 with no-holds-barred surrender:

“Oh, that I might have my request…that God would be willing to…cut off my life! Then I would still have this consolation—my joy in unrelenting pain—that I had not denied the words of the Holy One.”
(Job 6:8-10)

Job was afraid he’d dishonor You, Jesus

So he was saying:

“Just kill me now!”

But that wasn’t Your plan, was it?

You put Job through this to prove something to Satan
and teach Job a thing or two!

Message received and recorded.

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“…make my joy complete by being like-minded…”
(Philippians 2:1)

Many of us put a high premium on being different, Jesus!

And so we are.

No two of us are exactly alike.

You’ve made each of us unique.

Then why is it so important for the people in Your Church to be like-minded?

Well…there are some things that we all have to agree on, aren’t there?

Love for You.
Love for one another.
Compassion for the lost.
Obedience to Your Word.

Pray this Lazaroo in humble adulation:

“…make my joy complete…”
(Philippians 2:1)

Paul was telling the people in the church at Philippi what else he wanted them to do, Jesus.

They had already pleased him in a few things
but the transformation into Your likeness still wasn’t done.

Can I ever identify!

I’m making progress in a few areas.
When I look a little more like You, I’m thrilled!

So is everybody around me. 😉

Please help me go all the way!

…to make Your joy complete.

Pray this Lazaroo with bulldog faith:

“But I, with a song of thanksgiving, will sacrifice to you.”
(Jonah 2:9)

Thank You for putting a song of thanksgiving in my heart, Jesus!

Of course, there are days
when I have trouble remembering where You put it

let alone being able to sing it.

But it’s in there. By faith, I declare it:

It’s in there!

You sacrificed Your life for me.

It is my joy to sacrifice whatever You have entrusted to my care

for You.
