Wednesday, June 28, 2023

 

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“…the Pharisees went out and began to plot with the Herodians how they might kill Jesus. Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the lake, and a large crowd from Galilee followed. When they heard about all he was doing, many people came to him…”
(Mark 3:6-8)

In the face of these threats, Jesus

You didn’t stay and fight.
You simply went somewhere else and stayed on mission.

Please show me when that is exactly the response

You want me to have.

Pray this Lazaroo in the holy fear of the LORD:

“…the Lord met Moses and was about to kill him. But Zipporah took a flint knife, cut off her son’s foreskin and touched Moses’ feet with it. ‘Surely you are a bridegroom of blood to me,’ she said…referring to circumcision.”
(Exodus 4:24-26)

Had Moses refused to obey You because of his wife, Jesus?

Putting anyone or anything ahead of you is idolatry.
You weren’t about to send an idolater to Egypt to free your people!

Is there anything or anyone with whom I’m committing idolatry, Holy Spirit?

If You were that tough on Moses…

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“…to fulfill what was said through the prophet Isaiah: ‘…the people living in darkness have seen a great light’…Jesus began to preach, ‘Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.’”
(Matthew 4:14, 16-17)

That wasn’t the only Old Testament prophecy You fulfilled, Jesus!

There are at least 323 others.

Mathematician Peter Stoner calculated the probability

of one person fulfilling just 48 of them.

The odds against that?

One in 10, followed by 157 zeros!

Oh, yeah.

You’re the Messiah.

Saturday, June 24, 2023

 

Pray this Lazaroo with deepened understanding:

“You have wearied the Lord with your words. ‘How have we wearied him?’ you ask. By saying, ‘All who do evil are good in the eyes of the Lord, and he is pleased with them’ or ‘Where is the God of justice?’”
(Malachi 2:17)

So let me get this straight, Jesus:

You’re sick to death of our whining that life isn’t fair!

We’re making our judgments

based on three or four factors

while You know what’s really going on
with literally trillions of factors.

We’re trying to track what’s happening

with our tiny circle of family and friends

while You’re tracking the 24/7 lives
of all eight billion people on this planet

while laying groundwork
for the billions about to be born.

Be greatly encouraged as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I have heard the insults of Moab and the taunts of the Ammonites, who insulted my people and made threats against their land.”
(Zephaniah 2:8)

That’s all I need to know, Jesus.

When somebody targets me, I’m not alone.
You know the ins and outs of their insidious plans.

I’m not the best of Your people.

Not by a long shot.

But I belong to You – with every fiber of my being.

That means You take their actions against me Personally.

That being the case
I like my chances.

Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

“There are those who turn justice into bitterness and cast righteousness to the ground. He who made the Pleiades and Orion, who turns midnight into dawn and darkens day into night, who calls for the waters of the sea and pours them out over the face of the land—the Lord is his name.”
(Amos 5:7-8)

Yes, bitter, unrighteous people are out there, Jesus.

But You’re the One who turns darkness into light!

They’re only spitting into the wind.

Pray this Lazaroo with a fervent heart:

“Be glad, people of Zion, rejoice in the Lord your God, for he has given you the autumn rains because he is faithful.”
(Joel 2:23)

Yes, You Are, Jesus!

You always keep Your promises.
You gave Your life for me on the cross

I, on the other hand, haven’t always been faithful to You.

It hurts me to admit that.
I know it hurts You even more.

Well, that’s got to change.

Not sometime in the future.

Starting now.

Pray this Lazaroo with desperate desire:

“He has overthrown you without pity, he has let the enemy gloat over you, he has exalted the horn of your foes. The hearts of the people cry out to the Lord. You walls of Daughter Zion, let your tears flow like a river day and night; give yourself no relief, your eyes no rest.”
(Lamentations 2:17-18)

It’s hard to see You like this, Jesus

but absolutely essential.

You’re giving me a clear picture of the horror of sin.

May I hate and reject the sin in my life
as much as You do.

Pray this Lazaroo with determination:

“If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not take them into your house…”
(2 John 1:10)

The people who enter my home influence me, Jesus

for good or bad.

They can encourage me in the right direction

or hinder me from following You with my whole heart.

The people I permit to enter my home

also send a message to everyone on the outside.

Rightly or wrongly, my acceptance of them
causes people to conclude I agree with them.

Pray this Lazaroo in reverent humility:

“…these people blaspheme in matters they do not understand.”
(2 Peter 2:12)

Am I doing that, Jesus?

I don’t think so…

but if it’s in an area I don’t understand
I could very well be guilty and not know it.

I have to face it:

There’s a whole lot I don’t understand!

You’re the one who gives understanding.

You know what I need to know
and what I don’t.

Help me grasp what I need
and respond exactly as You desire!
