Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“…if you continue in your faith…not moved from the hope held out in the gospel.”
(Colossians 1:23)

“I’m unmoved from the hope held out in the gospel.”

Powerful, Jesus.

When I pray for something that hasn’t happened.

I’m unmoved from the hope held out in the gospel.

When I lose my job.

I’m unmoved from the hope held out in the gospel.

When my doctor diagnoses me with an incurable illness.

I’m unmoved from the hope held out in the gospel.

Pray this Lazaroo with wisdom:

“Then King Solomon swore by the LORD…”
(1 Kings 2:23)

Powerful, Jesus.

But not always wise.

Not something I want to do thoughtlessly

on the spur of the moment
just to impress the people I’m with
to make my point.

It’s a serious, solemn, awesome thing to invoke Your Name –

the Name above every name
the Name before which every knee will bow.

No wonder You made it one of your Ten Commandments

not to misuse Your Name!

Pray this Lazaroo with outrageous adoration:

“Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all people. “
(1 Timothy 2:5-6)

Those last two words, Jesus:

“all people.”

Not merely the rich, famous or powerful.

“all people.”

Not just deacons, elders and pastors.

“all people.”

Not only the beautiful, talented and likable.

“all people.”

You gave Yourself as a ransom

for poor people, nobodies and powerless
waiters, stockbrokers and nurses
ugly people, clumsy and obnoxious

and for me! – the least deserving of

“all people.”

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“…Jesus Christ…will be with us in…love.”
(2 John 1:3)

That’s how I want You to be with me, Jesus!

That’s how I want to be with You.

You…Are Pure Love.

Of course, there’s a fierce side of You, too.

Because pure love isn’t weak.

It’s strong, robust, powerful, formidable.

When called for – which isn’t all that rare –

it has the capacity to be ferocious –

in defense of those You love

and to arouse in them fear, wonder, awe

worship.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“God sends them a powerful delusion…”
(2 Thessalonians 2:11)

How could this be, Jesus?

You don’t just love the truth
You Are the Truth!

Why would You send people any kind of delusion…

let alone one that’s powerful?

But that’s what You do to people who reject truth, isn’t it?

When they refuse Your Word
they’re turning their backs on You.

Since they’d rather hear lies than submit to Your leadership

You give them what they want

then lay it on thick.

Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“I write to you…”
(1 John 2:12)

John wrote to them, Jesus

and 2000 years later
he’s writing to me.

It’s as fresh to me in the 21st Century
as it was to them in the first.

That’s exactly the way You designed it

because what John wrote is Your Word
and Your Word is eternal

transformative not only for those living 6,000 years ago

or in the first century

but also for me –

and all who come after.
