Pray this Lazaroo with grateful heart:

“…peace from God.”
(2 John 1:3)

Where else is it going to come from, Jesus…

if not from You?

This world doesn’t offer peace.

The best it offers is a cessation of hostilities.

But even then, it’s temporary –
more like an opportunity to plan the next attack.

It’s all surface, too

the anger, jealousies, hatred and bitterness
simmering underneath.

In wonderful contrast, Your peace is real, lasting, deep.

World peace is an illusion.
In You alone I find peace.

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“He walked with me in peace…”
(Malachi 2:6)

May that be said of me, Jesus

now…

and after I depart –

when my time on earth is through.

Can that be said of me?

On my good days, yes.

But there are still too many days of my life that I surrender to

doubt
fear
worry
turmoil
unrest.

My fault. Not Yours.

You’ve promised to keep me in perfect peace

if I will keep my mind steadfast
trusting You.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“Nation will not take up sword against nation…”
(Isaiah 2:4)

We all long for that day, Jesus!

Well…those of us who love peace.

This is Your promise:

That day will come.

Millions are working and praying for it.

But it won’t be ours until the Last Day.
Nor will we bring it about.

You will.

Until then, thank You for the men, women, leaders and nations willing to take up swords

so the rest of us don’t have to.

Pray this Lazaroo in Godly desire:

“…that we may live peaceful…lives…”
(1 Timothy 2:2)

Some people seem to enjoy constant drama, Jesus.

If it’s not happening around them, they’re bored.

If things become too quiet for their taste, they’ll stir the pot themselves

goading others into a reaction, good or bad.

They don’t care, so long as everything’s hopping.

Turmoil…is their entertainment.

Please rescue me from these people, LORD!

Never permit me to become one of their number.

Make me…

a lover of peace.

Pray this Lazaroo in deepest gratitude:

“Grace, mercy and peace…”
(2 John 1:3)

These three gifts from the throne room of heaven, Jesus…

priceless.

But too often I forget to claim them as mine.

If only I could remember them when I most need them!

Well…maybe I can:

Your grace – spelled, G.R.A.C.E. –

God’s Riches At Christ’s Expense.

Your mercy – spelled, M.E.R.C.Y.

My Errors Removed Completely! Yes!

Your peace – spelled, P.E.A.C.E.

Panic Ends As Christ Enters.

 Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can: 

“He will judge between the nations and will settle disputes for many peoples.”
(Isaiah 2:4)

That’s one of the toughest things on earth to accomplish, Jesus!

Once again, I’m in awe of You.

I’ve tried to settle disputes between friends and family…

…and sometimes ended up making it worse.

The more people who are involved

the harder it is to get everyone on both sides to agree
to something they didn’t want to begin with.

You, LORD…are amazing.
