Pray this Lazaroo in heartfelt gratitude:

“So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter.”
(2 Thessalonians 2:15)

It didn’t make any difference, Jesus –

whether it was something Paul wrote
or what they heard him say.

Their job was to stand firm and hold fast!

I didn’t get to hear what Paul said.

But I’m pretty sure it sounded a whole lot like what he wrote. 😉

Pray this Lazaroo in abject repentence:

“…stand firm…”
(2 Thessalonians 2:15)

Is there any other way to stand, Jesus?

Sadly, yes.

Have I ever been wishy-washy in my stand for You, LORD?

speaking up for You some of the time
but not in others?

Have I ever been timid in my stand for You?

fearful, squeamish, unconfident.

Have I ever been absent in my stand for You?

failing to show up.

If so, O God! Forgive me!

May I from this moment forward

stand firm.

Fully open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith –”
(Ephesians 2:8)

It’s being sure of what I hope for, isn’t it, Jesus?

It’s being certain of what I don’t yet see

taking Your Word over what my senses report
above what others say
in spite of the circumstances.

You love that!

It means I trust You no matter what.

I’m not hedging my bets, Father.

Everything I’ve got – past, present and future –
is all on You.
