Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope, encourage your hearts and strengthen you…”
(2 Thessalonians 2:16-17)

Oh, do I need Your strength, Jesus!

Strength to obey You no matter what.
Strength to bear up under the hard times.
Strength to stay true to You during the good times.
Strength to overcome Satan’s temptations.
Strength to stay faithful to You…

right up to the moment You call me home.

Pull on your work gloves, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling…”
(Philippians 2:12)

I can’t work UP my salvation, Jesus.

I’m saved by my faith in You, not by my works.

But I do have to work OUT my salvation once I’ve received it!

Not casually, but with fear and trembling –

‘cause the stakes are really, really, really high!

Pray this Lazaroo with heartfelt allegiance:

“Circumcision has value if you observe the law, but if you break the law, you have become as though you had not been circumcised. So then, if those who are not circumcised keep the law’s requirements, will they not be regarded as though they were circumcised?”
(Romans 2:25-26)

Bottom line, Jesus?

It’s not about my outward appearance.
It’s about the condition of my heart.

If I truly love You
I’ll obey You.

It really is that simple.

Pray this Lazaroo in renewed dedication:

“‘On that day,’ declares the Lord Almighty, ‘I will take you, my servant Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel,’ declares the Lord, ‘and I will make you like my signet ring’…”
(Haggai 2:23)

Why were You so pleased with this governor of Judah, Jesus?

It was because He had the courage to obey You!

He delivered Your warning to Your people
even though it was the last thing they wanted to hear.

He valued pleasing You
ahead of pleasing them.

Pray this Lazaroo with desperate desire:

“Did I not make you swear by the Lord and warn you, ‘On the day you leave to go anywhere else, you can be sure you will die’? At that time you said to me, ‘What you say is good. I will obey.’ Why then did you not keep your oath to the Lord and obey the command I gave you?”
(1 Kings 2:42-43)

What Shimei swore before You didn’t matter, Jesus!

He was rotten to the core.

Only You know those who have potential

and those who have none.

When I need to know

show me!

Pray this Lazaroo with total transparency:

“In your teaching show…soundness of speech…”
(Titus 2:7-8)

You’re not talking about the rules of grammar, are You, Jesus?

You’re telling me not to present speculation as fact.
You’re telling me to be kind toward others.
You’re telling me to speak with humility.
You’re telling me to stick to the truth.

I may not be the best speaker in the world.

What I have to say may not always be interesting.

But with Your help
I can do that.

Take warning, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…the king summoned Shimei and said to him, ‘Did I not make you swear by the Lord and warn you, “On the day you leave to go anywhere else, you can be sure you will die”? At that time you said to me, ‘What you say is good. I will obey.’”
(1 Kings 2:42)

Solomon set Shimei up for failure, Jesus.

The guy just didn’t have it in himself
to do the right thing for the rest of his life

so his life was cut short.

Got it.

Pray this Lazaroo in fervency of spirit:

“But as for me, I am filled with power, with the Spirit of the Lord, and with justice and might, to declare to Jacob his transgression, to Israel his sin.”
(Micah 3:8)

It’s possible, Jesus!

That while all around me are weak, timid and afraid
You would choose to make me bold and strong.

That was true of Your prophet Micah

because He was obeying You
with every fiber of his being.

Weak or strong, bold or timid
may I do the same.

(2 John 1:8)

You deserve my obedience Jesus.

If I serve You perfectly in every way
You owe me nothing.

But You love me so much that You long to reward me anyway!

if only I don’t blow it by disobeying You.

You don’t owe me any incentive whatsoever to stay true to You

but that’s exactly what You just gave me.

“Moses said…‘I have never been eloquent, neither in the past nor since you have spoken to your servant. I am slow of speech and tongue.’ The Lord said to him, ‘Who gave human beings their mouths? Who makes them deaf or mute? Who gives them sight or makes them blind? Is it not I, the Lord?’”
(Exodus 4:10-11)

Please forgive me, Jesus

for all the times I’ve pulled out that same lame excuse

and told You why I couldn’t do what You’ve told me to do.
