Pray this Lazaroo, unashamed:

“The first thing Andrew did was to find his brother Simon…”
(John 1:41)

What an example, Jesus.

Andrew finds You…but doesn’t keep it to himself.

I’ve found You, too.

But the excitement of first discovery
too often gives way to taking it for granted.

I’m so used to the 1on1 relationship with You I enjoy each day

that I may not be telling as many people about You
as desperately need to hear.

Open my eyes!

and my mouth.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“When Peter came to Antioch, I opposed him to his face…”
(Galatians 2:11)

Am I seeing this right, Jesus?

The Apostle Paul in a face-to-face confrontation with the Apostle Peter?

That’s not supposed to happen, is it? – for several reasons:

Along with James and John, Peter was one of Jesus’ inner circle.
He was a follower of Jesus long before Paul.
Christians are supposed to be loving and get along!

But this was love, wasn’t it?

Love of the truth.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“All they asked was that we should continue to remember the poor…”
(Galatians 2:10)

There are a lot of things that could have been asked of Paul, Jesus.

But only one thing?
This?

Before I assign more importance to it than I should

who are “they?”

Let’s see:

James…Peter…John – the pillars and leaders of Your Church in Jerusalem.

Oh.

If it was that big of a deal to them

it must be that big of a deal to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with thanksgiving:

“They agreed that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the Jews.”
(Galatians 2:9)

How many times have I looked at the assignment You’ve given someone, Jesus

and thought, “I wish You had sent me there!”?

But how often have I looked at where You’ve sent someone else

and thought, “I’m so very glad that’s not me!”?

May I never second-guess Your calling, LORD!

You alone

know what You’ve put me on this earth to do.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your being:

“James, Peter and John, those esteemed as pillars…”
(Galatians 2:9)

I’d say so, Jesus!

James, your half-brother

author of the New Testament book that bears his name

Peter, one of Your twelve apostles

author of two New Testament books that bear his name

John, the beloved apostle

author of four New Testament books that bear his name

I’m no pillar in Your Church, Jesus

but I long to follow You as they did
with all my heart, soul, mind and strength.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“…listen carefully to what I say.”
(Acts 2:14)

Some people use language like that because they’re stuck on themselves, Jesus

They think everything they say is worth my rapt attention.

But when Your Apostle Peter utters those words

I’d better listen.

In fact, if it’s anywhere in the Bible, I’d better listen!

Your words
are my life.

When the people around me speak

please give me the wisdom to know whose words to hang on
and whose to dismiss.
