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 unwavering dedication:

“Watch out that you do not lose what you have worked for…”
(2 John 1:8)

I tend to think that once I have it, Jesus

it’s mine.

But You’re reminding me that I may have to work as hard to keep it

as I did to attain it.

Maybe harder – because now, I’m a target.
Satan wants to steal what You’ve provided.

But so long as I keep my eyes fixed on You

following You every step of the way

You’ll ensure that Satan comes up

empty-handed.

Pray this Lazaroo with dogged determination:

“Keep reminding them of these things.”
(2 Timothy 2:14)

Nobody likes to be harassed, Jesus.

However, everybody appreciates a reminder
of something important to them

that they are about to forget.

But what about those things that are far more important

to You, to Your kingdom and to us
than we realize?

Those are the reminders I may not appreciate

but most urgently require.

Don’t let me ignore them, LORD!

Please make me sensitive to even Your softest whisper!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“…the LORD has a charge to bring against you who live in the land…”
(Hosea 4:1)

You were reminding them of how much You had done for them, Jesus!

They were living in the land You had given them.

Through them, You evicted the previous landowners.

Now, they were committing the same sins
that brought about the eviction of their predecessors.

May I never take for granted what You’ve done for me!

May I walk with You always
in obedient humility.

Pray this Lazaroo with renewed resolve:

“As you have heard…”
(2 John 1:6)

Why do I cringe when I hear those words, Jesus?

Probably because I realize
I’m about to be reminded.

Usually, the reason I’m being reminded

is I didn’t pay attention the first time.

Of course, I may have paid attention the first time

and didn’t want to do it

or had something else going on
I wanted to finish first.

Or maybe I just procrastinated.

Wow.

All that sounds pretty lame.
