Pray this Lazaroo with acknowledged need:

“Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor: If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls and has no one to help them up.”
(Ecclesiastes 4:9-10)

You’re making it very clear, Jesus:

We need each other.

I need other people in my life –

reliable people!

…and they need me.

So much for my solo act.

May I be the help to others

I need from them.

Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

This is what the Lord says: ‘As for the prophets who lead my people astray, they proclaim “peace” if they have something to eat, but prepare to wage war against anyone who refuses to feed them. Therefore night will come over you, without visions, and darkness, without divination.’”
(Micah 3:5-6)

It’s so tempting to tell nice people what they want to hear, Jesus

instead of what they need to hear.

Nevertheless!

Make me a faithful, reliable, Biblically-accurate truth-teller.

Pray this Lazaroo in humbled determination:

“I had planted you like a choice vine of sound and reliable stock. How then did you turn against me into a corrupt, wild vine?”
(Jeremiah 2:21)

When You drew me to Yourself and I asked you to be my Savior

You planted me in Your Church, Jesus!

But I confess:

I haven’t done nearly enough with what You’ve built into me!
I’m not giving You anything like the good return You deserve.

That has to change.

Now.

Pray this Lazaroo with rock-solid confidence:

“So was fulfilled what was said through the prophets…”
(Matthew 2:23)

Always, Jesus.

Always, always, always.
You always keep Your Word.

In this world of

“I was going to…”
“I meant to…”
“Something came up…”
“I may have been mistaken…”
“I hope this is good enough…”
“I have no idea what happened…”
“Oops!”

…and outright liars

the utter reliability of Your Word is the only thing I can trust

because You are the only one I can trust.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“…knowing that you will do…”
(Philemon 1:21)

I can’t thank You enough, Jesus
