Pray this Lazaroo in life-changing belief:

“But now apart from the law the righteousness of God has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God…”
(Romans 3:21-23)

I cannot thank You enough for this, Jesus!

By the standards of the Law, I was condemned to hell.

But because I believe in You –

your death, burial and resurrection –

I have eternal life!

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 utter abandon:

“‘Though you soar like the eagle and make your nest among the stars, from there I will bring you down,’ declares the Lord.”
(Obadiah 1:4)

You said it, Jesus:

“Pride goes before destruction
a haughty spirit before a fall.”

I can testify!

You’ve had to drop me to my knees.
More than once.

But praise Your Holy Name!

Again and again and again
You’ve lifted me back up!

May I never forget:

The way to stay up
is to stay down.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“…pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly and be honored…”
(2 Thessalonians 3:1)

Those two don’t always go together, Jesus.

When the good news about You spreads rapidly
people who prefer to remain in their sins get upset!

You tend to mess with their status quo.

On the other hand, when all those people are finding You

they testify!

They tell of Your wonders
sing your praises

and that brings due honor to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“Sons were born to Shaharaim in Moab after he had divorced his wives Hushim and Baara. By his wife Hodesh he had Jobab, Zibia, Mesha, Malkam, Jeuz, Sakia and Mirmah. These were his sons, heads of families.”
(1 Chronicles 8:8-10)

I can’t identify with multiple wives, Jesus.

And I know how much You hate divorce.

But I sure can testify that no matter how messed up our lives…

You – and You alone! – have the power to turn them around.

Salute Your Commander, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“‘If anyone sins because they do not speak up when they hear a public charge to testify regarding something they have seen or learned about, they will be held responsible.”
(Leviticus 5:1)

So much for, “It’s none of my business,” Jesus.
So much for, “I don’t want to get involved.”
So much for, “If I speak up, it’ll backfire on me.”
So much for, “Why speak up? It won’t do any good.”

You’re the One who made sure I witnessed it –

…and who holds me accountable to testify.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“‘Hear this and testify against the descendants of Jacob,’ declares the Lord, the Lord God Almighty.”
(Amos 3:13)

Some things are hard to hear, Jesus

so we plug our ears
making noises with our mouths
engaging in frenetic activity

trying to keep Your warnings of doom
from penetrating all the way to our hearts
forcing us to repent.

But it’s the hardest messages from You

that I most need to hear, isn’t it?

Forgive me, LORD!
I’m listening.

Pray this Lazaroo with God-given discernment:

“Moses was…testifying to what would be said in the future.”
(Hebrews 3:5)

Moses couldn’t have done that with any accuracy whatsoever, Jesus

unless You had revealed the future to him.

You alone know the future. Apart from You –

If anyone claims to be able to foretell what will happen

they’re guessing.

That goes for mediums, spiritists, false prophets, soothsayers

talk show hosts, politicians, pundits, authors
and highly-educated experts.

‘Cause a well-informed, thoughtful
carefully-researched educated guess

is still a guess.

Pray this Lazaroo in renewed determination:

“…I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions…”
(Colossians 1:24)

This has to be one of the most baffling statements Paul ever made, Jesus.

You paid it all!

No matter how much I suffer for You

Your horrific sacrifice on the cross
stands as payment in full for my salvation.

No one else could do it.
Nothing else is required.

But Paul was saying there’s a whole lot of sacrificing that must be done

so others will know.

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“…they sang to the LORD…”
(Ezra 3:11)

That’s a wonderful thing, Jesus.

There’s a huge difference between singing about You

and singing to You.

When I sing about You, I’m testifying to others.

That’s a good thing!

But when I sing to You, It’s You and me, 1on1.

When I truly mean those words from my heart
there’s nothing like it.

It’s the difference between telling others,

“I love Him…”

and looking directly into Your loving eyes:

“I love You!”
