Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“Then Nathanael declared, ‘Rabbi, you are the Son of God; you are the king of Israel.’”
(John 1:49)

I’ve had moments like that too, Jesus!

When You’ve done something for me that never could have happened

had You not answered my fervent prayers.

Of course, when I testify about Your provision to others

not all of them are convinced.
In their minds, some attempt to explain it away.

But I know.

And You know.

And that’s all that matters.

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 unshakable belief:

“’How do you know me?’ Nathanael asked.”
(John 1:48)

Nathanael had just met You, Jesus.

He was a skeptic.

But when You told him exactly who he was and what he had been doing hours before

He began to be a believer pretty fast.

It’s a very healthy idea for me to remember Who You Are, Jesus!

which explains how it is that You know me inside and out
along with all my thoughts, words

and comings and goings.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep longing:

“When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, he said of him, “Here truly is an Israelite in whom there is no deceit.”
(John 1:47)

When I approach You, Jesus

Is that what You see?
No deceit?

Oh, how I long for that to be true of me!

But it’s hard.
I so want people to like me.

Dare I let them know how flawed I am?

Ha! Who am I kidding?

Not only You – but they –

have a pretty good idea.

Pray this Lazaroo in deepest personal gratitude:

“Come and see…”
(John 1:46)

I would have thought that’s all people needed to do, Jesus.

Phillip told Nathanael to come and see You and he believed.
Many others did the same.

But it’s stunning to realize how many of the Jewish leaders who saw You did not believe.

They already had their minds made up.
They scoffed at your words and ignored your miracles.

It’s the same way today.

Nobody can come to You unless Your Father enables them.

Thursday, January 16, 2020

 

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“He will be called a Nazarene.”
(Matthew 2:23)

To us all these years later, that sounds like a compliment, Jesus.

Thousands of churches worldwide proudly bear that name.

But that wasn’t the case 2,000 years ago.

When Philip told Nathanael that’s what you were called
Nathanael’s reaction says it all:

“Nazareth! Can anything good come from there?”

But Philip’s response was perfect:

“Come and see.”

When I run into a doubter

that’s still the perfect response.
You never disappoint.

Pray this Lazaroo in excited obedience:

“Phillip found Nathanael and told him…”
(John 1:45)

All it took was one encounter with You, Jesus…

and Phillip had to go tell somebody!

How many encounters have I had with You?

How many times have You intervened in my life to help me?

And what about the most important, life-changing time of all –

when You gave me the gift of faith to believe in You
which changed my destiny from hell…to heaven?

I’ve gotta go tell somebody!
