Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’”
(John 3:5-7)

I can do all the good within my power to do, Jesus

but I can’t save myself.

I’m looking to You alone to save me

as I trust in Your death, burial and resurrection.

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“‘What are you, mighty mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become level ground. Then he will bring out the capstone to shouts of “God bless it! God bless it!’” Then the word of the Lord came to me: “The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this temple; his hands will also complete it.”’”
(Zechariah 4:7-9)

No one can

turn the tables
flip the script
upend the status quo

like You can, Jesus!

That’s what I need You to do right now.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“…Ephraim turned to Assyria, and sent to the great king for help. But he is not able to cure you, not able to heal your sores. For I will be like a lion to Ephraim, like a great lion to Judah. I will tear them to pieces and go away; I will carry them off, with no one to rescue them.”
(Hosea 5:13-14)

May I never turn to anyone else for help Jesus –

not for my relationships, my finances, my health.

You alone are my Deliverer, my Supplier, my Healer.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“Jesus declared, ‘I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.’ ‘How can a man be born when he is old?’ Nicodemus asked. ‘Surely he cannot enter a second time into his mother’s womb to be born!’”
(John 3:3-4)

The New Life You grant to all who put their faith in You, Jesus

is a fresh, brand-new start
even more profound

than the miracle
of a baby’s first breath
on this earth.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser focused intent:

“As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you.”
(1 John 2:24)

It doesn’t do much good, Jesus

to hear the great, life-changing truths of Your Word

then fail to remember them

not build every aspect of my life upon them.

You’ve told me to see to it that I don’t let that happen.

That means I’m the one responsible.

If I don’t do it
I have no one to blame but myself.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“We sent Timothy…to strengthen and encourage you in your faith, so that no one would be unsettled by these trials.”
(1 Thessalonians 3:2-3)

It’s hard to watch one of our leaders go through a dark, difficult time, Jesus.

It’s even harder when I’m going through an agonizing time myself!

At such times, Satan may suggest to me that following You isn’t worth it.

But he’s a liar.

The only trials You permit Your people to endure

are those that will accomplish in us Your highest purpose.

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“Now there was a Pharisee, a man named Nicodemus who was a member of the Jewish ruling council. He came to Jesus at night and said, ‘Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs you are doing if God were not with him.’”
(John 3:1-2)

What courage this man exhibited, Jesus –

willing to stand against all his peers
because he could see what You were doing.

May I be courageous, LORD

even when I don’t see.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“I know your deeds. See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.”
(Revelation 3:8)

When You’re the one who opens the door, Jesus

no one can shut it in my face.

Even when my strength wanes

may I always keep Your Word
and glorify Your Name.

So long as that’s true of me

may You keep opening doors.

Pray this Lazaroo with undying love:

“No one who denies the Son has the Father…”
(1 John 2:23)

There aren’t millions of Gods, Jesus.

There aren’t two Gods or three Gods.

There’s just One:

You.

You and the Father Are One.

Anyone who has seen You has seen the Father.

You live within me

in the Person of the Holy Spirit.

God created the heavens and the earth.

Everything that exists was made by You.

I have the Father

because I have You!

Pray this Lazaroo in wholehearted dedication:

“One day Ruth’s mother-in-law Naomi said to her, ‘My daughter, I must find a home for you, where you will be well provided for.’”
(Ruth 3:1)

Naomi was a heartbroken widow, Jesus.

No one would have blamed her
for wanting Ruth to stay and take care of her.

But Naomi entrusted herself to You

and put Ruth’s needs ahead of her own.

O God!

Rise up within me so strongly
that I have that same caring heart toward others!
