Pray this Lazaroo in passionate gratitude:

“Until now…”
(Haggai 2:19)

The “until now” of the past tries to hold us captive, Jesus

But You came to change that.

In You –

what I used to be, used to do, the way I used to think –

are irrelevant.

My future is as bright as Your promises –

which are dazzlingly brilliant!

I’m no longer required to drive forward while looking in my rearview mirror.

In You, I can look ahead

and see unfolding before my eyes

new possibilities!

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“All right, let them do it.”
(2 Samuel 2:14)

It’s hard to turn down a request, Jesus

especially if it comes from somebody important to me
or somebody who’s persistent and passionate.

But some requests need to be turned down no matter who makes them

or how insistently they’re made.

This was one of them

and both generals failed.

Don’t let me become a pushover, Father!

If it’s wrong
help me stand
no matter who or what.

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“…do the things you did at first.”
(Revelation 2:5)

I remember how passionate I was when I gave myself completely to You, Jesus.

I was all-out, no-holds-barred.
You were my Everything.

But it’s hard to maintain that level of emotion

day-in, day-out
month after month
year after year.

I’m ashamed to say I haven’t.

You’re not telling me to feel the way I did at first, though.

You’re telling me to do what I did back then.

Got it.
