Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“Flee the evil desires of youth and pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart.”
(2 Timothy 2:22)

How do I overcome all the temptations Satan strews along my path, Jesus?

By single-mindedly focusing on all the opportunities You provide
to become everything You’ve created me to be

while making sure I surround myself
with like-minded men and women
who call on You out of a pure heart.

Pray this Lazaroo in utter gratitude:

“The law was given through angels and entrusted to a mediator. A mediator, however, implies more than one party; but God is one. Is the law, therefore, opposed to the promises of God? Absolutely not! For if a law had been given that could impart life, then righteousness would certainly have come by the law.”
(Galatians 3:19-21)

The law is holy, righteous and good, Jesus!

but sinner that I am

I keep falling short of Your high standard.

Thank You for Your mercy, Jesus!

and for Your atoning death in my behalf on the cross.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“…all are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. God presented Christ as a sacrifice of atonement, through the shedding of his blood—to be received by faith. He did this to demonstrate his righteousness, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished…”
(Romans 3:24-25)

You’ve left a countless number of my sins unpunished Jesus.

Your sacrifice on the cross

has set free this unworthy –

but profoundly grateful –

sinner saved by grace.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.”
(Matthew 5:3-6)

Who could make such promises – and then fulfill them, Jesus –

to the poor in spirit, those who mourn,
the meek, the hungry and thirsty?

Only You.

Pray this Lazaroo in life-changing belief:

“But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God…”
