Pray this Lazaroo in total awe:

“This man was handed over to you by God’s…foreknowledge…”
(Acts 2:23)

Peter was talking to the Jews about You, Jesus!

Before You spoke the universe into existence
before You created the heavens and the earth
before You created human beings in Your own Image
before You chose a people out of every nation on earth

You knew You would have to come to earth as one of us

and give Your life on the cross to pay for our sins.

Pray this Lazaroo with conviction:

“I said to Peter in front of them all…”
(Galatians 2:14)

One titan taking on another, Jesus –

the Apostle Paul confronting the Apostle Peter.

Paul, however, was the newbie.

Peter was one of the originals –
chosen by You to be one of Your inner circle.

So what gave Paul the courage and conviction to rebuke Peter?

It was very simple, wasn’t it?

Paul was right.
Peter was wrong.

When it comes to right and wrong

right must always prevail.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“This man was handed over to you by God’s set purpose…”
(Acts 2:23)

Peter preaching on the Day of Pentecost, Jesus –

proclaiming to His fellow Jews:

that at their unbelieving hands
Your Father deliberately sacrificed You on the cross

in order to pay for their sins
and give them eternal life in heaven.

You did the same for me, Father!

You gave Your only Son to die
so that I might live.

May I do so!
Only for You.

Pray this Lazaroo with excitement:

“We have found the one Moses wrote about…”
(John 1:45)

What a thrill that had to be, Jesus!

They’d been waiting 1,400 years for You to appear!

How many generations of Godly Jews had come and gone without getting so much as a glimpse of You?

Phillip, Andrew and Peter were going through this day –

like any other day –

when suddenly, it happened!

there You were!

Miracles of miracles…

I’ve found You, too!

Well, actually –

You’ve revealed Yourself to me.

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“Philip, like Andrew and Peter, was from the town of Bethsaida.”
(John 1:44)

The Jewish people living there witnessed Your amazing miracles, Jesus

but many refused to believe –
even though three of Your disciples were from there!

You told them if the pagans living in Tyre and Sidon had seen those same miracles

they would have repented and believed.

You don’t need to do anything more than You already have, Father

for me – with all my heart – to believe.

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“The other Jews joined him in his hypocrisy…”
(Galatians 2:13)

What weak, wishy-washy follower of Yours are you referring to, Jesus?

Oh, wait a minute. I stand corrected.

This was none other than Your chosen Apostle Peter!

the man who was crucified upside-down for his faith.

He was just having a bad day. So were the other Jews.

So have I.

You didn’t give up on Peter when he slipped into hypocrisy…

and you will never give up on me.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“Men of Israel, listen to this:”
(Acts 2:22)

Because of what You had just done, Jesus

You had their attention.

So Peter proceeded to seize the moment and tell them about You.

Sounds like a plan!

But how often have I been totally oblivious?

How many times have I failed to recognize my opportunity?

O God!

Please help me recognize very time
You’ve grabbed their attention.

Then help me seize that priceless moment
to tell them about You.

Take warning as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…he began to…separate himself from the Gentiles…”
(Galatians 2:12)

Peter was on a roll, Jesus.

Through a powerful vision, You had made it crystal clear:
He was to share Your good news with non-Jews
lovingly including them in Your Church.

But all it took was for Jews who had not had that vision to show up

for Peter to revert to his pre-vision behavior.

What beautiful insights have You given me, LORD?

Am I still walking in Your Light?

Pray this Lazaroo…thoughtfully:

“Before certain men came from James, he used to eat with the Gentiles.”
(Galatians 2:12)

If the Apostle Peter can be intimidated by so-called “important” people, Jesus

so can I.

The pressure he felt was so great that he actually sinned against the precious people to whom he had been ministering!

Please, LORD.

Help me keep my eyes so firmly fixed on You
that I will never allow anyone – high or low –

to back me off Your Word.

Monday, February 5, 2018

 

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“When Peter came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face, because he was clearly in the wrong.”
(Galatians 2:11)

Peter wasn’t infallible, Jesus.

Nor was Paul, who opposed him.
Nor is any leader, no matter how wise, respected or famous.

Nor am I.

Sooner or later, we all need to be corrected.

But when it’s my turn to be corrected
may it be by somebody like Paul

who opposed Peter to his face
rather than behind his back.
