Pray this Lazaroo in never-say-die trust:

“You handed him over to be killed, and you disowned him before Pilate, though he had decided to let him go. You disowned the Holy and Righteous One and asked that a murderer be released to you. You killed the author of life, but God raised him from the dead. We are witnesses of this.”
(Acts 3:13-15)

Peter let them have it with both barrels, Jesus.

He lifted You high and smacked them down low.

When everything’s on the line, Holy Spirit:

make me this bold!

Boast in the LORD! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“While the man held on to Peter and John, all the people were astonished and came running to them in the place called Solomon’s Colonnade. When Peter saw this, he said to them: ‘Fellow Israelites, why does this surprise you? Why do you stare at us as if by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk?’”
(Acts 3:11-12)

Peter refused to take credit for Your miracle, Jesus.

As You work miracle after miracle for me

may I always give credit where credit is due!

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew. They were casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen. ‘Come, follow me,’ Jesus said, ‘and I will send you out to fish for people.’ At once they left their nets and followed him.”
(Matthew 4:18-20)

When You call me, Jesus

I want to do what Peter and Andrew did when You called them:

Leave whatever I’m doing
and come running.

Take a second look, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Then Peter said, “‘Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.’ Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong. He jumped to his feet and began to walk.”
(Acts 3:6-8)

What Peter had sure beat silver and gold, Jesus!

How many times have I, like that beggar
wanted so much less than You were willing to give?

O God!

Increase my faith!

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful perspective:

“So then, no more boasting about human leaders! All things are yours, whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the future—all are yours, and you are of Christ, and Christ is of God.”
(1 Corinthians 3:21-23)

It’s okay for us to be grateful for the leaders You’ve so gifted, Jesus

but not to put them on a pedestal of worship.

You’ve gifted us all…even me!

May I never forget that.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“Now a man who was lame from birth…asked them for money. Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, ‘Look at us!’ So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them.”
(Acts 3:2-5)

He was about to get something all right, Jesus…

but it wasn’t from Peter and John.

It was from You!

He wanted money, but what he needed was to be healed.

That’s what I desire, Father!

Not what I think I want
but what You know I need.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer—at three in the afternoon. Now a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts.”
(Acts 3:1-2)

Peter and John thought they were there to pray, Jesus.

The lame man thought he was there to beg.

All three were about to discover:

You had a little something else in mind!

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, ‘Brothers, what shall we do?’ Peter replied, ‘Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.’”
(Acts 2:37-38)

Straightforward question…

straightforward answer, Jesus:

the gospel in a nutshell.

When people ask me what to do

may I be just that straightforward.

Pray this Lazaroo with a willingness to be corrected:

“How is it, then, that you force Gentiles to follow Jewish customs?”
(Galatians 2:14)

That had to be incredibly hard for Peter to take, Jesus.

After all, Peter had spent the entire three years of your ministry with You.

Paul was a Johnny-come-lately

who had persecuted Your followers in the early days of the church.

No matter!

This time, Paul was right
and Peter was wrong.

No matter by whom!

may I always be willing to stand corrected.

Pray this Lazaroo in deep gratitude for the cross:

“You are a Jew, yet you live like a Gentile and not like a Jew.”
(Galatians 2:14)

Peter had embraced Your good news, Jesus!

He was no longer living under the law.
He had faced the fact that he kept falling short.

Instead, he was now living under grace –
trusting You alone as His Savior.

But when some of the old crowd showed up

he reverted to his old ways
and Paul, in Your courage –

nailed him for it.
