Pray this Lazaroo with hyperfocus:

“Moved by the Spirit, he went into the temple courts. When the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for him what the custom of the Law required, Simeon took him in his arms and praised God, saying: ‘Sovereign Lord, as you have promised, you may now dismiss your servant in peace.’”
(Luke 2:27-29)

Simeon was there at that once-in-a-lifetime moment, Jesus

because the Spirit moved him to be there.

How many times have You moved me, Holy Spirit

and I missed a priceless moment
because I failed to respond?

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“Ask the former generation and find out what their ancestors learned, for we were born only yesterday and know nothing, and our days on earth are but a shadow. Will they not instruct you and tell you? Will they not bring forth words from their understanding?”
(Job 8:8-10)

What refreshing, humble words of wisdom, Jesus!

May I never be counted among the proud
who regard older saints with disdain

as though modern times
make their counsel irrelevant!

Technology changes.
People don’t.

The hard-won experience of the aged

is priceless.

Pray this Lazaroo in passionate gratitude:

“’…I have chosen you,’ declares the Lord Almighty.’”
(Haggai 2:23)

To be chosen for something good is gratifying, Jesus.

But to be chosen by You?

Priceless.

Before You ever chose me

You knew me
because You made me.

You knew the countless sins I would commit
the mistakes I’d make

and still You chose me!

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

No matter what I face

no matter what trials You take me through

may I never forget that eternally life-changing fact!

Commit to stand! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I wrote to the church, but Diotrephes, who loves to be first, will not welcome us. So when I come, I will call attention to what he is doing, spreading malicious nonsense…”
(3 John 1:9-10)

John wasn’t about to let this pass, Jesus.

Truth is too important.
Reputations are priceless.

If somebody is spreading malicious lies

they need to be stopped.

If what they’re claiming is utter nonsense

the holes, inconsistencies and fallacies
have to be pointed out.

Pray this Lazaroo with new understanding:

“Epaphras, my fellow prisoner in Christ Jesus…”
(Philemon 1:23)

Misery loves company, Jesus.

That got Epaphras a mention in the pages of Scripture!

But as much as it helps to have someone else suffering like I am

it’s a whole ‘nuther level when we’re both suffering
because of our love for You.

That’s a brotherhood…a sisterhood –

a bond so strong that no words can do it justice!

To find someone else who loves You that much

is priceless.

Pray this Lazaroo with unbending passion:

“…found that the Lord had opened a door for me…”
(2 Corinthians 2:12)

An open door is a priceless thing, Jesus!

No matter how hard I try
how experienced I am
how much firepower I can muster
how much money I throw at it
how many people I have helping me

if You don’t open the door
I’ll never make it through.

But that’s fine.

Because I don’t want to walk through ANY door
that isn’t in the dead center of Your will.

Pray this Lazaroo in purest devotion:

“A few days later, when Jesus again entered Capernaum…”
(Mark 2:1)

A second chance with You, Jesus.

Priceless.

During Your first visit to Capernaum

You taught with authority –
casting out demons, healing the sick.

That night the whole town showed up at Peter’s door.
But next day you left Capernaum to preach in nearby villages.

If I have strayed one inch from Your love, mercy, truth and power

draw me back to You, my Savior!
never to falter again.

(Luke 1:49)

That’s how Mary felt when she was pregnant with You, Jesus!

And she was right.

To be chosen as the mother of the Savior of the world?

Priceless.

You have done great things for me, too, Mighty One!

To be chosen as the child of the Creator of the Universe!
The Alpha and Omega! The Bright Morning Star!
The One who loves with an Everlasting Love?

Priceless.

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

(Philemon 1:20)

There are a lot of ways I might try to get refreshed, Jesus:

take a shower.
down a delicious glass of iced tea.
experience the luxury of a good night’s sleep.

But nothing in this world compares

to the refreshment of my heart in You!

You fill me with spiritual energy

higher purpose
boundless hope.

To see You at work in my life and in the lives of those I love?

Priceless.

Pray this Lazaroo in deepest gratitude:

“Grace, mercy and peace…”
(2 John 1:3)

These three gifts from the throne room of heaven, Jesus…

priceless.

But too often I forget to claim them as mine.

If only I could remember them when I most need them!

Well…maybe I can:

Your grace – spelled, G.R.A.C.E. –

God’s Riches At Christ’s Expense.

Your mercy – spelled, M.E.R.C.Y.

My Errors Removed Completely! Yes!

Your peace – spelled, P.E.A.C.E.

Panic Ends As Christ Enters.
