Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“Abner said to David, ‘Let me go at once and assemble all Israel for my lord the king, so that they may make a covenant with you, and that you may rule over all that your heart desires.’ So David sent Abner away, and he went in peace.”
(2 Samuel 3:21)

Abner did the right thing for the wrong reason, Jesus.

Soon after speaking these words
it cost him his life.

May I always do what’s right – and for the right reason:

to please You.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“Let love and faithfulness never leave you…Then you will win favor and a good name…”
(Proverbs 3:3-4)

Wow. That’s pretty powerful, Jesus.

I usually think about love and faithfulness
being a blessing to others.

But now, You’re reminding me:
It’s a blessing to me, as well.

That’s so much like You!

Every time I do something to please You
or do something for others because You tell me to

it ends up helping me.

I really can’t out-give You!
