Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“Very truly I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless they are born of water and the Spirit. Flesh gives birth to flesh, but the Spirit gives birth to spirit. You should not be surprised at my saying, ‘You must be born again.’”
(John 3:5-7)

I can do all the good within my power to do, Jesus

but I can’t save myself.

I’m looking to You alone to save me

as I trust in Your death, burial and resurrection.

Take a little comfort, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“One Sabbath Jesus was going through the grainfields, and as his disciples walked along, they began to pick some heads of grain. The Pharisees said to him, ‘Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?’”
(Mark 2:23-24)

If they criticized Your followers then, Jesus…

why am I surprised –

while I’m faithfully walking with You –

when they criticize me?

Please don’t let their harsh words upset me.

After all, taking heat for You
is a badge of honor!

Pray this Lazaroo with heartfelt gratitude:

“…the Lord of peace himself…”
(2 Thessalonians 2:16)

You Are That, Jesus:

My Peace!

You warned me that in this world I’d have trouble.

But then You comforted me with this promise:

“But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

I need not be surprised when trouble comes.

You warned me it would.

But the good news is:

Trouble doesn’t have the power to rob me of Your peace!

“This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.”
