Take your stand on His Promise, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Just as no one can set aside or add to a human covenant that has been duly established, so it is in this case. The promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. Scripture does not say ‘and to seeds,’ meaning many people, but ‘and to your seed,’ meaning one person, who is Christ.”
(Galatians 3:15-16)

You, Jesus. You!

Our English translation makes that distinction easy to miss
but Paul’s explanation clears it up.

The promise is to You

and to all who put their hope in You:

past, present and future.

Pray this Lazaroo with enlightened understanding:

“Teach slaves to be subject to their masters in everything, to try to please them…”
(Titus 2:9)

In today’s world, Jesus

we’d be hard-pressed to find a single public figure
who would affirm this passage of Scripture.

But that’s because we just don’t get it, do we?

Paul wanted slave masters to be blown away
by the amazing difference there was in slaves who follow you
contrasted with everyone else.

He knew that would bring glory to You

and a better life to those trapped
in the evil of slavery.

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. ‘All this I will give you,’ he said, ‘if you will bow down and worship me.’ Jesus said to him, ‘Away from me, Satan! For it is written: “Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.”’”
(Matthew 4:8-10)

Satan threw his best at You, Jesus

and every time You answered with Scripture.

What an example You’ve set for me:

For every Satanic attack
Your Word is the answer.

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: ‘All nations will be blessed through you.’ So those who rely on faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith.”
(Galatians 3:8-9)

I have an earthly dad, Jesus.

Above all, there’s my Heavenly Father.

But because I have the faith of Abraham

he has become my spiritual father!

Pray this Lazaroo with growing anticipation:

“Jesus answered them, ‘Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days.’ But the temple he had spoken of was his body. After he was raised from the dead, his disciples recalled what he had said. Then they believed the scripture and the words that Jesus had spoken.”
(John 2:19, 21-22)

You’ve made it clear, Jesus:

my body, too, is a temple.

And though the ravages of life on this earth can destroy it

in Your power I will be raised
to live with you forever!

Wednesday, December 14, 2022

Pray this Lazaroo in awed faith:

“In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David.”
(Luke 2:1,4)

Did Joseph know that He was fulfilling Scripture, Jesus?

Whether or not he knew
that’s exactly what he was doing.

I love that You prompted Caesar Augustus to do his part, too!

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

“Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. ‘If you are the Son of God,’ he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written: ‘’He will command his angels concerning you, and they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’”
(Matthew 4:5-6)

Help me never forget, Jesus:

When the devil quotes Scripture

it’s always twisted out of context
always for an evil purpose.

Pray this Lazaroo with attentive dedication:

“…praying in the Holy Spirit…”
(Jude 1:20)

There’s praying in myself, Jesus –

Telling You what I want
letting You know what I’m thinking.

That’s okay.
You understand.

But there’s another level, isn’t there?

It’s asking what You want

listening to Your reply in my heart
listening to Your reply as I study Your Word
listening to Your reply through life events
listening to Your reply through Your servants

all the while measuring everything I’m hearing

by the whole of Scripture.

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“…his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did. And the scripture was fulfilled that says, ‘Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness…”
(James 2:22-23)

How does anyone know I have faith in You, Jesus?

For that matter, how do I know I have faith?

It’s not my talk, is it?
Talk’s cheap.

It’s by my actions!

What I do and don’t do
provide a telling glimpse
into my heart.

“For in Scripture it says: ‘See, I lay a stone in Zion, a chosen and precious cornerstone, and the one who trusts in him will never be put to shame.’”
(1 Peter 2:6)

You’ve made that promise directly to me, Jesus.

Hallelujah!

I will never be put to shame
because I trust in You!

You’re my Only Hope
because You’re all I need.

On You, my Solid Rock I stand.
All other ground is sinking sand.
