Pray this Lazaroo in deepest gratitude:

“…my groans pour out like water.”
(Job 3:24)

Few people can identify with the depth of Job’s suffering, Jesus.

But You can.

Job had lost almost everything – his wealth, his children and his health.

The only thing that remained were his so-called friends
who told him he was getting what he deserved

a wife who told him to curse You and die

and his life.

But you gave even that – Your life! – out of love for me.

Thank You!

Pray this Lazaroo…with second thoughts:

“I’ve been told all about what you have done…”
(Ruth 2:11)

I wouldn’t mind that at all, Jesus

if You caused the good I’ve done to be told.

But there’s a whole lot I’ve done

that I fervently hope, pray and beg You
to keep between us.

I wish You hadn’t seen those things

but there’s no hiding from You.

Wait a minute…

Yes, there is!

Because of Your sacrifice on the cross

You remember my sins no more!

Pray this Lazaroo in heart-thumping anticipation:

“No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him.”
(1 Corinthians 2:9)

So…nothing I’ve experienced on this earth can prepare me for eternity with You, Jesus!

Nothing I’ve ever seen.
Nothing I’ve ever heard.
Nothing I’ve ever imagined.

Wow.

When You love someone, You go all out, don’t You?

You’ve already proved that on the cross.

I can’t picture heaven…

but until then…
I can’t help but try.

Pray this Lazaroo in sold-out surrender:

“If a member of the community…does what is forbidden…”
(Leviticus 4:27)

Sadly, Jesus…

who hasn’t?

I have.

Everyone I know has.

You say the same:

There’s no one righteous, not even one.

But things can’t stay that way, can they?

Sin has to be atoned for.

Either the sinner pays
or someone with sufficient means

has to pay it for them.

Which is exactly what You did on the cross
for everyone who puts their trust in You.

Pray this Lazaroo in holy fear:

“If we died with him…”
(2 Timothy 2:11)

That’s a disconcerting thought, Jesus

at first.

I mean, the very idea of dying is disturbing.

Having company while I do it doesn’t help a whole lot.

But when I realize that that the One I’m dying with is You

identifying with what You did for me on the cross
and making the irrevocable decision to die to my sins

that’s just about the greatest death
I could possibly imagine.

Pray this Lazaroo with a heart full of gratitude:

“…founded a dynasty for me…”
(1 Kings 2:24)

It’s true, Jesus!

That’s what You did for David.

You founded a dynasty for him
that led to You.

But praise God!

The dynasty didn’t end with You!

The whole point of what You did for David

and what You did on the cross

was to establish a dynasty
for countless millions who would believe in You.

So when You founded that dynasty for David

You were also founding it for me.

Peter preaching on the Day of Pentecost, Jesus –

proclaiming to His fellow Jews:

that at their unbelieving hands
Your Father deliberately sacrificed You on the cross

in order to pay for their sins
and give them eternal life in heaven.

You did the same for me, Father!

You gave Your only Son to die
so that I might live.

May I do so!
Only for You.

“…he who has established me securely…”
(1 Kings 2:24)

And that You have, Jesus.

You’ve established me securely.

You’ve done it through that very promise You made to King David.

You told him he would always have a descendant to sit on the throne.

When You, descended from the line of David

paid for my sins on the cross
rose from the dead

then ascended back to Your throne in heaven

You established me through faith in You

Eternally.
