Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.”
(James 3:13)

Once again I’m reminded, Jesus:

Talk is cheap.

It’s not enough that I know the truth.

I have to live it!

If it’s truth I’m living

I won’t be boastful or proud.
I’ll be grateful and humble.

That’s the good life to which You’ve called me –

one that’s safe for others to follow.

Pray this Lazaroo in trusting confidence:

“This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘These people say, “The time has not yet come to rebuild the Lord’s house.”’”
(Haggai 1:2)

That doesn’t sound like discernment, Jesus.

It sounds like laziness.

May I never put off doing Your will because it requires a lot of work!

And by the same token:

May I never put off doing Your will
because I realize my very best work won’t be enough!

May I always trust that Your All-Powerful Hand

will be able to accomplish what I cannot!

Beg God for deliverance, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Arise, cry out in the night, as the watches of the night begin; pour out your heart like water in the presence of the Lord. Lift up your hands to him for the lives of your children, who faint from hunger at every street corner.”
(Lamentations 2:19)

If You see we won’t obey You for our own sakes, Jesus

you motivate us to obey You
for the sake of our children

knowing full well that when we’re listening to Satan
even that may not be enough.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“All the objects that Huram-Abi made for King Solomon for the temple of the Lord were of polished bronze. The king had them cast in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan…All these things…amounted to so much that the weight of the bronze could not be calculated.”
(2 Chronicles 4:16-18)

Whatever I do for You, spend for You, sacrifice for You, Jesus

is never enough!

But oh, the joy of giving my all

knowing my all

is all You require!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“‘Go to Bethel and sin; go to Gilgal and sin yet more. Bring your sacrifices every morning, your tithes every three years. Burn leavened bread as a thank offering and brag about your freewill offerings—boast about them, you Israelites, for this is what you love to do,’ declares the Sovereign Lord.”
(Amos 4:4-5)

On the cusp of this New Year, Jesus

I’ve got to remember it’s not enough to jump through the hoops.

For You…

it’s all about my heart.

Tuesday, May 28, 2019

 

Pray this Lazaroo in a spirit of accountability:

“Mordecai found out about the plot and told Queen Esther…”
(Esther 2:22)

It’s not enough to find out about something dangerous, is it, Jesus?

I’ve got to tell somebody.

That in itself may be dangerous.

No matter.
I can’t keep it to myself and let something bad happen.

I may not be able to prevent it.

But You’re the One who made sure I learned about it.
I know You’re watching to see if I will do the right thing.

Monday, October 23, 2017

 

Pray this Lazaroo in solemn assessment:

“Their land is full of silver and gold…”
(Isaiah 2:7)

But since when has that been enough, Jesus?

We work long hours for money and the things it will buy

then come to the end of the day

exhausted, empty, dissatisfied.

So we work even harder, longer

thinking the solution will be found in more

but it isn’t.

Sadly, only then do we stop, look around

and turn to You

the only one who can satisfy
my longing soul.

Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“…making atonement…”
(1 Chronicles 6:49)

The blood of bulls, sheep, rams and goats never really did make atonement for the sins of Your people, did they, Jesus?

You accepted it as though it did
but down deep, we had to know:

It just wasn’t enough.

But You were teaching us, weren’t You?

preparing us
even setting us up

for the day when You, the true Lamb of God

would give Yourself as the ultimate sacrifice
making atonement
in full.

Pray this Lazaroo with bolstered faith:

“Moses said to God, ‘Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them…’”
(Exodus 3:13)

He’s stalling, isn’t He, Jesus?

In the middle of the desert Moses hears Your voice.
It’s coming from a flaming bush that doesn’t burn up

– and that’s not enough for Him?

What – did You have to spell it out for him in writing?

Oh…wait a minute.

You’ve already done that for me, haven’t You?
I guess that leaves me with no excuse.
