Pray this Lazaroo with discerning wisdom:

“I am writing these things to you about those who are trying to lead you astray. As for you, the anointing you received from him remains in you, and you do not need anyone to teach you.”
(1 John 2:26-27)

It would be so easy to take this out of context, Jesus!

True, Your Holy Spirit is my teacher.

But John is warning them not to listen
to those trying to lead them astray.

The gift of teaching Your Word accurately

is still in effect today

and is needed more than ever!

Pray this Lazaroo in heartfelt gratitude:

“…the anointing you received from him remains in you…”
(1 John 2:27)

That is so comforting, Jesus!

so good to know.

When I sin – which I sadly confess is way too often –

Satan tries to make me afraid that I’ve lost what I had with You.

That’s a terrifying thought.

But it’s not true!

You’ve promised to never leave me nor forsake me.

And though I’ve let You down countless times

I will never turn my back on You.

Pray this Lazaroo in believing wonder:

“As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you. If it does, you also will remain in the Son and in the Father.”
(1 John 2:24)

When I have You, Jesus…

I have the Father.

You and the Father are One.

To see You
is to see the Father.

There aren’t two Gods – or three.

Just One:
Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

The only time it’s Scripturally and grammatically correct to say:

They Is
He Are.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser focused intent:

“As for you, see that what you have heard from the beginning remains in you.”
(1 John 2:24)

It doesn’t do much good, Jesus

to hear the great, life-changing truths of Your Word

then fail to remember them

not build every aspect of my life upon them.

You’ve told me to see to it that I don’t let that happen.

That means I’m the one responsible.

If I don’t do it
I have no one to blame but myself.

Pray this Lazaroo with inexpressible gratitude:

“There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his. Let us, therefore, make every effort to enter that rest, so that no one will perish by following their example of disobedience.”
(Hebrews 4:9-11)

I rest, Jesus –

from my futile work of attempting to earn my salvation.

I can’t – no matter how hard I try.

I confess that my faith in You –

Your death, burial and resurrection –

is my only hope for eternal life!

Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I know your deeds; you have a reputation of being alive, but you are dead. Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have found your deeds unfinished in the sight of my God.”
(Revelation 3:1-2)

Deeds, Jesus.

Not words.

You’ve given me a job to do, along with the gifts and ability to do it.

My excuses for not doing it don’t matter.

I’ve got to finish it

while there’s still time.

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

“My soul is in anguish. How long, O LORD, how long?”
(Psalms 6:3)

How many times have I been there, Jesus?

You alone know.
It’s too many for me to count.

But that’s a good thing, isn’t it?

It reminds me that in Your perfect way and time
You rose up and showed Yourself strong!

I don’t have to tell You –

my soul remains in anguish about some things
and especially some people.

But I know:
You’ll come through.
