Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“But you, dear friends, build yourselves up…”
(Jude 1:20)

This isn’t a suggestion, is it, Jesus?

It’s a command.

Apparently, getting spiritually stronger

isn’t something that’s going to happen to me
while I lie back and wait.

I’ve got to hit the spiritual gym:

Studying your Word
Praying
Forsaking my sin
Attending church services
Serving
Sharing my faith

Salvation? That’s free.

All I have to do is believe.

But if I truly believe

I’ve got to get to work.

Pray this Lazaroo in obedient belief:

“Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the LORD and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.”
(Proverbs 3:7-8)

When we achieve something, there’s an inherent danger, isn’t there, Jesus?

that we will think our own cleverness brought it about
instead of You.

May we be terrified by those evil thoughts –

instantly shutting them down.

Not only will we do what’s right spiritually…

but Your physical blessings will be ours!

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful love:

“Then the Spirit lifted me up…”
(Ezekiel 3:12)

Unlike Ezekiel, Jesus

Your Spirit has never lifted my body.

But, O Holy Spirit!

Every single day You lift me up

mentally
emotionally
spiritually!

What would I do without You?

When I’m down, weak, discouraged

You’re my closest Friend, encouraging me, giving me hope.

When I’ve sinned

You prompt me to confess and repent.

But there is coming a day when You will lift my body –

at the last trumpet sound!

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“He shall burn all the fat on the altar…”
(Leviticus 4:26)

Just as You commanded the priest to offer an animal on the altar, Jesus

so You invite me to offer myself to You as a living sacrifice
holy and pleasing in Your sight.

As I do, please enable me to burn up all the fat!

By that, I mean those things I’m doing that are unhealthy –

physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually –

whatever is cheating me out of Your best.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“He walked with me in…uprightness…”
(Malachi 2:6)

“Uprightness.”

Interesting word, Jesus.

That’s how you want me to walk in my spirit, isn’t it?

Not bent over, as an animal.
Upright, as one made in Your Image.

But even when I’m hobbling in my spirit, bent over in pain

You’re there for me!

Even when I’m spiritually bedfast and can’t walk at all

You never give up on me
You stay beside me

bringing the healing no one else can.
