Pray this Lazaroo remembering…anticipating:

“…the steps going down from the City of David.”
(Nehemiah 3:15)

Jerusalem…Zion…Ariel…the Holy City…the City of David and of God.

Oh, how You love that spot on earth, Jesus!
So do I!

You –

mourned for her
taught in her streets
entered before cheering crowds
were arrested and stood trial there
were crucified outside her gates
rose to life from one of her tombs
will return one day – soon! –
through her Eastern Gate.

Pray this Lazaroo in passionate commitment:

“…you who do what he commands…”
(Zephaniah 2:3)

I long to be one of those people, Jesus!

There’s a difference between asking You to be my Savior
and becoming one of Your followers, isn’t it?

Well…there shouldn’t be
but for some people there is.

There are those who merely try to use You for a fire escape.

They want to make heaven and miss hell.

So do I!

But You also call me to do everything You say.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“The LORD Almighty has a day in store for all the proud and lofty…”
(Isaiah 2:12)

You have a day in store for me, too, Jesus –

but not that day! Please, not that day!

I don’t think there’s any pride in me, any sense of loftiness…

but if there is, eradicate it! Stomp it out! Kill it!

I know You hate it, can’t tolerate it.

So do I.

All I possess or any good I’ve done

is from You.

Pray this Lazaroo all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“I hope…”
(Philemon 1:22)

So do I, Jesus!

I have hopes very similar to Paul’s, when he wrote those words.

Like Paul, I envision being able to do some things that seem good to me

but I’m not certain they’re in Your plan.

Of course, You know what’s best.

I don’t.

What seems good to me may be bad…or second-best.
What seems bad to me may turn out to be awesome.

Help me fully, thankfully embrace whichever You choose.

Pray this Lazaroo with outrageous adoration:

“…more than I ask.”
(Philemon 1:21)

Who does that, Jesus?

Really good people
powered by You.

Most people do less

attempting to gauge the minimum it takes to get by.

Doesn’t matter how much I ask.

They have their margins, their schedules, their limits.

Frankly, so do I.

But when I feel Your inner prompt, Holy Spirit

when You rise up within me
flooding me with conviction

I’m able to rise above myself
and be better than my best.
