Monday, June 24, 2024

 

Pray this Lazaroo with determination:

“I pray that your partnership with us in the faith may be effective in deepening your understanding…”
(Philemon 1:6)

Do I ever need my understanding deepened, Jesus!

Certainly, that requires time each day in Your Word
Seasons of prayer, as I pour out my heart to You
and seek Your Face.

But it also requires action.

As I study and pray
You want me to go and grow

through ministry to Your people
and navigating among those
who are not Your people.

Pray this Lazaroo in tearful trust:

“So the Lord our God also gave into our hands Og king of Bashan and all his army. We struck them down, leaving no survivors. At that time we took all his cities. There was not one of the sixty cities that we did not take from them—the whole region of Argob, Og’s kingdom in Bashan.”
(Deuteronomy 3:3-4)

The Promised Land wasn’t empty, Jesus.

Multiplied thousands of wicked people lived there

and had to be eliminated.

Not our decision.

Yours.

Pray this Lazaroo with excuseless repentance:

“This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘These people say, “The time has not yet come to rebuild the Lord’s house.”’ Then the word of the Lord came through the prophet Haggai: ‘Is it a time for you yourselves to be living in your paneled houses, while this house remains a ruin?’”
(Haggai 1:2-4)

There’s a time for everything, Jesus.

But when I claim it’s not the time to serve You
because I’m too busy serving myself?

You see through me –
straight to my selfish, me-centered heart.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“If you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”
(Esther 4:14)

Esther’s cousin Mordecai spoke words that resound through the ages, Jesus!

I dare not shirk my duty to speak up for You!

You have placed me on earth in this place, at this time to fulfill Your purpose.

With Your help, Holy Spirit

I’ll do it!

Pray this Lazaroo with undiluted sincerity:

“So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him…”
(Colossians 2:6-7)

How can I send my roots down deep in You, Jesus?

The answer to that question is no big secret, is it?

Time spent with You studying and obeying Your Word.
Time spent with You in prayer.
Time spent with You loving Your people.

Does this describe my daily life?

Then I’m being rooted and built up in You.

Friday, January 26, 2024

 

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“The law, introduced 430 years later, does not set aside the covenant previously established by God and thus do away with the promise. For if the inheritance depends on the law, then it no longer depends on the promise; but God in his grace gave it to Abraham through a promise.”
(Galatians 3:17-18)

You keep Your promises, Jesus –

no matter what happens in the meantime
no matter how long I have to wait.

Help me not to miss it!

when You keep Your promise
in a way and time I didn’t expect.

Pray this Lazaroo with a yearning soul:

“At that time I will carry out against Eli everything I spoke against his family—from beginning to end. For I told him that I would judge his family forever because of the sin he knew about; his sons blasphemed God, and he failed to restrain them.”
(1 Samuel 3:12-13)

I, too, have failed to restrain some of the people in my life, Jesus.

Of course, You haven’t given me full control over someone else.

But You have given me a measure of influence.

Please maximize Your mighty power through me
to accomplish what only You can do.

Pray this Lazaroo in obedient trust:

“Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of the heart. At that time each will receive their praise from God.
(1 Corinthians 4:5)

Even when I obey and follow You with all my heart, Jesus

my praise may not come now.

I need to be okay with that.

By faith, help me fix my eyes on my reward in heaven.

Please don’t let me become discouraged

when it all blows up in my face on earth.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“When the time came for the purification rites required by the Law of Moses, Joseph and Mary took him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord…and to offer a sacrifice in keeping with what is said in the Law of the Lord: ‘a pair of doves or two young pigeons.’”
(Luke 2:22, 24)

Joseph and Mary did what they knew to do for You, Jesus.

Such small things.

But they were obedient to Your Word

leaving the outcome in Your Father’s Hands.

That’s all I can do

but I had better make sure I do it!

Get your, “Yes Sir!” ready, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“This is what the Lord Almighty says: ‘These people say, “The time has not yet come to rebuild the Lord’s house.”’ Then the word of the Lord came through the prophet Haggai…”
(Haggai 1:2-3)

You hear our complaints, Jesus.

They grate on Your ears.

When we insist we don’t have time

to take care of the things that matter to You

we’re about to learn the hard way:

We should have kept our mouths shut.

You’ll appoint someone
to deliver the news.
