Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with fervent cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission. Son though he was, he learned obedience from what he suffered…”
(Hebrews 5:7-8)

In spite of Your sinless perfection, Jesus

if the suffering You endured was necessary for you to learn obedience

who am I to think I’m going to learn obedience

without suffering?

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“I always thank my God as I remember you in my prayers, because I hear about your love for all his holy people and your faith in the Lord Jesus.”
(Philemon 1:4-5)

I don’t blame Paul for praising Philemon for the love he showed for other believers, Jesus.

But without Philemon’s faith
it would have had no eternal meaning.

It’s my faith in You
that restores me when I’m less than loving.

It’s my faith in You
that will get me that hug from You one day in heaven.

Pray this Lazaroo in heart-pounding love:

“During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with fervent cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission.”
(Hebrews 5:7)

The whole time You were here, Jesus

You knew why You’d come.

Even so, You begged to be delivered from death.

As He sometimes says to me
Your Father said, “no.”

But to our resurrection from the dead

He says, “Yes!”

Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“I always thank my God as I remember you in my prayers, because I hear about your love for all his holy people…”
(Philemon 1:4-5)

I can’t show love to everyone who needs it, Jesus!

So when I see or hear of one of Your saints
showing love to the ones I can’t

my heart is warmed.

I know Yours is, too!

It takes us all of us, doesn’t it?

Only together can we

help lift every burden
dry every tear

share the anguish
of every aching heart.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“I always thank my God as I remember you in my prayers, because I hear about your love…”
(Philemon 1:4-5)

When I pray for people

there are a lot of things I can thank You for, Jesus.

I could thank You for protecting them.
I could thank You for healing them.
I could thank You for their good deeds.
I could even thank You for their faith.

But Paul was thankful for their love

because the greatest of all

is love.

Pray this Lazaroo with a heart full of gratitude:

“I always thank my God as I remember you in my prayers…”
(Philemon 1:4)

Thank You for reminding me to pray for the people I’m thankful for, Jesus.

Bless them richly for making such a difference in my life
and in the lives of so many others.

Cause others to be a blessing to them
as they are being a blessing to me.

Thank You, too, for reminding me to thank You for those on my prayer list

even if it’s only to give me
one more reason to talk with You.

Pray this Lazaroo with unvarnished transparency:

“My groans are many…”
(Lamentations 1:22)

I can usually do a lot of groaning

before I realize it, Jesus.

Other people might complain about my complaints

while they only seem justified to me.

But when I’m the one who notices I’m doing a lot of groaning

that’s an indication that things have become

pretty intense.

Do You get tired of hearing me groan, Father?

Or are You waiting for me to turn them
into believing, trusting, heartfelt prayers?

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“…in answer to your prayers.”
(Philemon 1:22)

Answered prayer is a beautiful thing, Jesus!

It rewards my hope in You.
It draws the two of us together.
It further builds my faith
It gives me cause to praise You to others.

It brings me back to You
with gratitude, love, thanksgiving, worship

and more requests!

May I never overlook or ignore any prayer You’ve answered!

Show me, Holy Spirit!

So I will be prompted and re-prompted
to hold high Your Mighty Name!

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“The LORD will restore the splendor of Jacob…though destroyers have laid them waste…”
(Nahum 2:13)

When I’ve been laid waste, Jesus

I’m tempted to think I’m done.

Without You perhaps that would be the case.

But with You, in You, through You, because of You –
I always have another chance.

And because of Your love, mercy and might

I’m not stuck with second-best!

You have a way of blessing me infinitely beyond

my highest prayers, desires, thoughts or hopes.
