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!

Pray this Lazaroo with a full heart:

“So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.”
(Colossians 2:6-7)

What a great state to be in, Jesus –

“overflowing with thankfulness!”

When I think of all You’ve done for me –

starting with the love You showed
when You paid for my sins on the cross –

I have every reason to let my thanks overflow!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“Therefore this is what the Lord, the Lord God Almighty, says: ‘There will be wailing in all the streets and cries of anguish in every public square. The farmers will be summoned to weep and the mourners to wail.’”
(Amos 5:16)

Though You had repeatedly warned them, Jesus

Your people refused to listen.

They took credit for the blessings You had bestowed upon them

mistreating those less fortunate.

O God! May I never have to be taught

what it’s like to have You against me

instead of for me.

Pray this Lazaroo in all honesty:

“So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught…”
(Colossians 2:7)

Please strengthen me in my faith, Jesus!

You said if I had faith as small as a mustard seed
I could say to a mountain:

“’Move from here to there,’
and it would move.

Then my faith must be microscopic

because I can’t speak to an anthill
and get it to move.

Pray this Lazaroo with catalytic dedication:

“In that day the Branch of the Lord will be beautiful and glorious, and the fruit of the land will be the pride and glory of the survivors in Israel. Those who are left in Zion, who remain in Jerusalem, will be called holy, all who are recorded among the living in Jerusalem.”
(Isaiah 4:2-3)

You’re the Branch, Jesus –

the promised Messiah!

You came, You taught, You worked miracles

then gave Your life on the cross
that all who trust You will have eternal life!

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“Many nations will come and say, ‘Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the temple of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.’ The law will go out from Zion, the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.”
(Micah 4:2)

May that day come soon, Jesus!

Sadly, in my day,
more and more nations
are turning away from You,
refusing to be taught Your ways,
straying from Your righteous paths.

Great God!

Send revival!

Pray this Lazaroo in humble circumspection:

“Here is a trustworthy saying: Whoever aspires to be an overseer desires a noble task.”
(1 Timothy 3:1)

It’s natural, Jesus –

to look at what one of Your leaders is doing and think:

“I’d like to do that!”

It’s a noble thing to want to serve You.

They are to be commended, encouraged, helped,
guided, taught, prayed over.

But O God!

May only those You’ve truly called pursue that course

because in truth

they know not what they ask.

Pray this Lazaroo in determined passion:

“He is the one we proclaim, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom…”
(Colossians 1:28)

It’s important to declare Your Name to our family, friends, city, nation and world, Jesus!

But having done so, it’s essential to admonish them
warning of the consequences if they reject You.

It’s vital that we teach them all about You
so they’ll learn to love and obey You as we do.

But the only way they’ll accept what we say

is when we speak with Your holy wisdom!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“…listen carefully…”
(Ezekiel 3:9)

Why wouldn’t I listen carefully…

when it’s You speaking, Jesus?

Every word of Yours is flawless.

You alone have the words of eternal life!

You spoke the worlds into existence.

I exist because You spoke me into life.

So why do I sometimes only half-listen when Your Word

is taught
sung
preached?

How dare I?

You deserve greater respect than that.

I cannot survive

let alone thrive

without the sustaining power

of Your Word.

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“…you have known him who is from the beginning.”
(1 John 2:14)

That would be You, Jesus.

Yes, You came to this earth as a baby
born of a virgin.

You grew, lived, loved, taught, worked miracles
died, rose from the dead, returned to heaven.

But before Abraham was born

You Are.

You created the heavens and the earth

every plant, animal and human – all of it.

Now You’ve given me the privilege of 1on1 time with You?

Mind-blowing.
