Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“I have no one else like him, who will show genuine concern for your welfare. For everyone looks out for their own interests, not those of Jesus Christ.”
(Philippians 2:20-21)

Timothy was someone truly special, Jesus.

Someone rare.

Will You please help me to follow in his footsteps?

Help me show genuine concern for the welfare of others!

Rather than my own interests
help me look out for Yours.

I don’t have to worry about doing without!

Your loving generosity has no limit.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink. Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face…”
(2 John 1:12)

Not so different from today, Jesus!

Now, Paul might write:

“I have so much to text you…
or email you…

“…but I don’t want to use my cell.”

The message is the same:

There’s just something special
about face to face.

One day in heaven, Jesus…

with You!

Pray this Lazaroo with anticipation:

“ In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for special purposes and some for common use. Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.”
(2 Timothy 2:20-21)

I long to be useful to You, Jesus!

Please prepare me for every good work
You have in mind for me to perform

to Your everlasting glory!

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“Some of them were in charge of the articles used in the temple service; they counted them when they were brought in and when they were taken out. Others were assigned to take care of the furnishings and all the other articles of the sanctuary, as well as the special flour and wine, and the olive oil, incense and spices.”
(1 Chronicles 9:28-29)

Mundane tasks, Jesus?

Not when they’re done for You!

Everything I do for You

has deep, significant, eternal meaning!

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for special purposes and some for common use. Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes, made holy…”
(2 Timothy 2:20-21)

So that’s my reward for cleansing myself, Jesus?

To be made holy?

I’ll take it!

Going to work on cleansing myself right now.

Wow. This is harder than I thought.

Only You!
Only You!
Only You!

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for special purposes and some for common use. Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes…”
(2 Timothy 2:20-21)

I long to be an instrument in Your Hands, Jesus…

for Your chosen special purpose.

To qualify, I’ve got to cleanse myself of every wrong thought, word and deed.

Is it worth it to me?

Oh, yes.

Pray this Lazaroo in renewed dedication:

“In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for special purposes and some for common use.”
(2 Timothy 2:20)

Not everyone owns articles of gold and silver, Jesus

because not everyone lives in a large house.

Most of us, however, have at our disposal articles of wood and clay.

May You enable me to use everything You have placed in my hands
to bring glory and honor to You!

Go and do likewise, after you pray this Lazaroo!

“One day when Elisha came, he went up to his room and lay down there. He said to his servant Gehazi, ‘Call the Shunammite.’ So he called her, and she stood before him. Elisha said to him, ‘Tell her, “You have gone to all this trouble for us. Now what can be done for you?”’”
(2 Kings 4:11-13)

I love that Elisha did that, Jesus.

So do You.

You had prompted this Shunammite woman to be good to Elisha

so he wanted You to do something special for her!

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.”
(1 Peter 2:10)

You blessed Your people, Jesus!

But You didn’t bless them
just to be blessing them.

You blessed them
to be a blessing.

May I never forget:

Every blessing I receive from You
creates an opportunity to be Your blessing
to somebody else!

Pray this Lazaroo with an open heart:

‘In that day each of you will invite your neighbor to sit under your vine and fig tree,’ declares the Lord Almighty.”
(Zechariah 3:10)

That is a day, Jesus! A very special day.

It’s one thing to have enough for my family, my friends and myself.

But it’s a new day
when I have enough to share with my neighbors
some of whom, perhaps, I hardly know.

You love generosity.

But there’s a reason for that:

Unimaginable Generosity is who You Are!
