Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…his anointing teaches you about all things…”
(1 John 2:27)

Then give me Your anointing, Jesus!

I am so grateful for what You’ve taught me thus far.

I’ve grown.

My understanding has increased from what it was
at the beginning of my walk with You.

Oh, but there’s so much more I don’t grasp!

I’m still but a child, desperately needing to be taught.

As I spend time in prayer and in Your Word, Holy Spirit

enlighten me!

Check the mirror, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“But to Jonah this seemed very wrong, and he became angry. He prayed to the Lord, ‘Isn’t this what I said, Lord, when I was still at home?’”
(Jonah 4:1-2)

First, Jonah runs from You, Jesus.

After he spends three days in the belly of a fish

he repents.

But when his obedience doesn’t go the way he likes

he justifies why he ran from You to begin with.

It’s a good thing I don’t ever do anything like that, Father.

Right…?

Right…?

Pray this Lazaroo with deep longing:

“I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink.”
(2 John 1:12)

Of course, John didn’t have available what we do, Jesus.

He didn’t have a cell phone.
He didn’t have email or text.
He didn’t have social media, Face Time or Zoom.

No doubt He would have used the living daylights out of those tools!

But something tells me there would still be times for him

as there are today

when nothing but face-to-face will do.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“‘In those days, when your numbers have increased greatly in the land,’ declares the Lord, ‘people will no longer say, “The ark of the covenant of the Lord.” It will never enter their minds or be remembered; it will not be missed, nor will another one be made.’”
(Jeremiah 3:16)

Well one thing’s for certain, Jesus:

These are not those days.

We still remember Your ark.
There are many who miss it.

But Your Presence has moved beyond that ark

to indwell each of us who believe
by Your Holy Spirit.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“Very truly I tell you, we speak of what we know, and we testify to what we have seen, but still you people do not accept our testimony. I have spoken to you of earthly things and you do not believe; how then will you believe if I speak of heavenly things?”
(John 3:11-12)

This had to be so frustrating for You, Jesus!

You spoke the truth.
They refused to believe.

There is so much more You’re willing to show us

if only we will accept
what You’ve already revealed.

Pray this Lazaroo with immovable determination:

“Altogether, those chosen to be gatekeepers at the thresholds numbered 212…The gatekeepers had been assigned to their positions of trust by David and Samuel the seer. They and their descendants were in charge of guarding the gates of the house of the Lord—the house called the tent of meeting.”
(1 Chronicles 9:22-23)

Your House still needs to be guarded, Jesus

even today.

There are many who seek to water down Your gospel

stray from Your Word

turn Your Church into a social club.

May I ever fulfill my position of trust!

Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: ‘Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole.’”
(Galatians 3:13)

You loved us that much, Jesus!

You love me that much.

Me.

Totally unworthy, sin-plagued, mistake-ridden me.

Incomprehensible.

At my best, I’m barely tolerable.
At my worst, I’m unlovable.

I’m at my best so seldom.
I’m at my worst too often.

And still, You love me!

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

Pray this Lazaroo in zealous love:

“Someone might argue, ‘If my falsehood enhances God’s truthfulness and so increases his glory, why am I still condemned as a sinner?’ Why not say—as some slanderously claim that we say—’Let us do evil that good may result’? Their condemnation is just!”
(Romans 3:7-8)

Through Paul, You brilliantly dismantle this attack on Your gift of grace, Jesus!

Anyone who knows You
knows You would never condone willful sin!

Help me take my stand for truth

and against all who would pervert it!

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful anticipation:

“And I declared that the dead, who had already died, are happier than the living, who are still alive. But better than both is the one who has never been born, who has not seen the evil that is done under the sun.”
(Ecclesiastes 4:3-4)

And so we’re blessed with another uplifting word from Solomon, Jesus.

For somebody so wise
he sure was in a snit of depression.

But he was almost right about one thing:

People in heaven are definitely happier
than those of us still on earth!

Pray this Lazaroo…thoughtfully:

“We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check.”
(James 3:2)

Of the many ways I can sin, Jesus

it’s most likely to happen
when I open my mouth.

That makes me want to keep my mouth shut.

But the problem with that solution is this:

If I only think it,
it’s still a sin.

No one else may know it
but You do

because You read minds.
