Pray this Lazaroo in heart pounding love:

“You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless? Was not our father Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did.”
(James 2:20-22)

Works without faith is dead, Jesus.

But so is faith without works.

I need both.

Help me, Father!

Oh, how I need both!

Pray this Lazaroo in heartfelt gratitude:

“If someone brings a lamb as their sin offering, they are to bring a female without defect… the priest shall burn it on the altar…In this way the priest will make atonement for them for the sin they have committed, and they will be forgiven.”
(Leviticus 4:32,35)

My sin has to be atoned for, doesn’t it, Jesus?

It can’t simply be ignored.

You are the Lamb that once and for all

paid for my sins

with Your own blood.

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“They shall remove all the fat, just as the fat is removed from the fellowship offering, and the priest shall burn it on the altar as an aroma pleasing to the Lord. In this way the priest will make atonement for them, and they will be forgiven.”
(Leviticus 4:31)

I’m so glad we don’t have to do all that anymore, Jesus!

Now, there’s a new aroma – one even more pleasing to You:

the knowledge about You we spread everywhere!

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“He shall burn all the fat on the altar…”
(Leviticus 4:26)

Just as You commanded the priest to offer an animal on the altar, Jesus

so You invite me to offer myself to You as a living sacrifice
holy and pleasing in Your sight.

As I do, please enable me to burn up all the fat!

By that, I mean those things I’m doing that are unhealthy –

physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually –

whatever is cheating me out of Your best.
