Pray this Lazaroo with keen anticipation:

“When Elisha reached the house, there was the boy lying dead on his couch. He went in, shut the door on the two of them and prayed to the Lord…As he stretched himself out on him, the boy’s body grew warm…The boy sneezed seven times and opened his eyes.”
(2 Kings 4:32-35)

You don’t usually raise the dead, Jesus.

Until it’s time for us to die You protect us.

But every once in a while You do the impossible!

to remind us You can.

Pray this Lazaroo in deepest gratitude:

“I opened for my beloved, but my beloved had left; he was gone. My heart sank at his departure. I looked for him but did not find him. I called him but he did not answer.”
(Song of Songs 5:6)

Few feelings are worse, Jesus

than to be abandoned by someone I love
someone I thought loved me.

But You are the Friend who sticks closer than a brother!

You will never leave me!
You will never forsake me!

Pray this Lazaroo with wholehearted adoration:

“The Lord said, ‘What have you done? Listen! Your brother’s blood cries out to me from the ground. Now you are under a curse and driven from the ground, which opened its mouth to receive your brother’s blood from your hand. When you work the ground, it will no longer yield its crops for you. You will be a restless wanderer on the earth.’”
(Genesis 4:10-12)

What have I done, Jesus?

I deserve to be a restless wanderer…

but in Your stunning mercy to me through the cross

I rest in Your loving arms!

Pray this Lazaroo with an eagerly waiting heart:

“‘The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.’ ‘How can this be?’ Nicodemus asked. ‘You are Israel’s teacher,’ said Jesus, ‘and do you not understand these things?’”
(John 3:8-10)

So much of Your Word, Jesus

I cannot understand on my own.

Teach me, Holy Spirit!

I long to see through Your eyes
and hear with ears You’ve opened!

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, ‘Glory to God in the highest heaven and on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests’…the shepherds said to one another, ‘Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.’”
(Luke 2:13-15)

Oh, to have been there in that stunning moment, Jesus –

when the heavens opened!

But the Day is coming

when You will show me far more than that.
