Saturday, May 4, 2024

 

Pray this Lazaroo in the fear of God:

“‘Defile the temple and fill the courts with the slain. Go!’ So they went out and began killing throughout the city. While they were killing and I was left alone, I fell facedown, crying out, ‘Alas, Sovereign Lord! Are you going to destroy the entire remnant of Israel in this outpouring of your wrath on Jerusalem?’”
(Ezekiel 9:7-8)

No, Jesus.

You didn’t destroy them all.

But You do know whom to destroy and whom to spare.

I don’t deserve it –

but thank You for sparing me

right down to this very moment.

Pray this Lazaroo with unbridled gratitude:

“Jesus went up on a mountainside and called to him those he wanted, and they came to him. He appointed twelve that they might be with him and that he might send them out to preach and to have authority to drive out demons.”
(Mark 3:13-15)

You called those you wanted, Jesus.

By Your grace, You’ve called me.
That means You want me!

Oh, my God.

Thank You!

I don’t know why You want me

but I’m determined not to let You down.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“All the Levites who were musicians—Asaph, Heman, Jeduthun and their sons and relatives—stood on the east side of the altar, dressed in fine linen and playing cymbals, harps and lyres. They were accompanied by 120 priests sounding trumpets. The trumpeters and musicians joined in unison to give praise and thanks to the Lord.”
(2 Chronicles 5:12-13)

You’ve given me gifts, too Jesus.

From the bottom of my heart:

Thank You!

May I work to fully develop them

to bring maximum glory to Your Great Name!

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“I always thank my God as I remember you…”
(Philemon 1:4)

Who are these people in my life, Jesus?

Those who spark feelings of gratitude
every time I think of them?

In fact, You are the one
who placed them in my life!

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

Now comes the most personal question:

Is there anyone out there
who can say the same of me?

O God! Make me the kind of person

for whom others thank You
every time they remember me!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and compassionate…Who knows? He may turn and relent and leave behind a blessing—”
(Joel 2:13-14)

Why do You treat us so much better than we deserve, Jesus?

It’s Your deep, abiding love, isn’t it?

Hallelujah!
Thank You!

But I can’t let it stop here, can I?

There are those who’ve wronged me
even as I have wronged You.

May I extend to them
Your deep, abiding love!

Pray this Lazaroo with full-on ardor:

“Not that we are competent in ourselves to claim anything for ourselves, but our competence comes from God. He has made us competent as ministers of a new covenant—not of the letter but of the Spirit; for the letter kills, but the Spirit gives life.”
(2 Corinthians 3:5-6)

I do long to obey You right down to the letter of the law, Jesus!

But I can’t.

Thank You, thank You, Thank You

for Your new, loving, mercy-drenched covenant

of grace.

Amen, Jesus!

Amen! and Amen! and Amen!

I know I deserve rebuke. I’m fully aware I need to be disciplined.

But not in Your anger, please LORD!
Not while You’re full of wrath!

And You never have.

You’ve walked me to the woodshed countless times
but it’s never been as bad as I’ve deserved.

Thank You, Holy Spirit!

My work is spotty.

Sometimes pathetic.

Even when I’m having what for me is a pretty obedient day

Oh, I intend for it to!

I beg You to make it happen.

But time and again I drop the ball

and come crawling back to You
