Pray this Lazaroo in renewed dedication:

“…we have renounced secret and shameful ways; we do not use deception, nor do we distort the word of God. On the contrary, by setting forth the truth plainly we commend ourselves to everyone’s conscience in the sight of God.”
(2 Corinthians 4:2)

That’s exactly who I want to be, Jesus!

Nothing under the table
Nothing shameful.

No deception.
Distortion-free.

A plain truth-teller of Your Word.

What others think matters
but the one I most want to please

is You.

Pray this Lazaroo with overflowing gratitude for nine precious God-ordained, Word-of-God honoring years!

“For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.”
(Hebrews 4:12)

Your Word, Jesus! Your Word!

It’s the Lamp for my feet
the Light for my pathway.

Teach me through Your Word!

Fill me with Your Word!

May I daily hide Your Word in my heart

that I might not sin against You!

Embrace God’s priority as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…urge the younger women to love their husbands and children, to be self-controlled and pure, to be busy at home, to be kind, and to be subject to their husbands, so that no one will malign the word of God.”
(Titus 2:4-5)

That’s my goal, isn’t it, Jesus?

Not to get my way.
Not to impress people.
Not to be successful.

My life’s goal is to honor You in such a way

that no one will malign Your holy Word!

“Day after day they spoke to him but he refused to comply. Therefore they told Haman about it to see whether Mordecai’s behavior would be tolerated, for he had told them he was a Jew.”
(Esther 3:4)

When the laws of the land conflict with Your Word, Jesus

it’s no contest.

Traditions, customs, police, judges, mayors, governors presidents all lose.

You win.

The only reason I have to pray about it

is to learn from You the wisest way to proceed.

Pray this Lazaroo in zealous love:

“Unlike so many, we do not peddle the word of God for profit. On the contrary, in Christ we speak before God with sincerity, as those sent from God.”
(2 Corinthians 2:17)

You reward everyone who serves You, Jesus!

Some earn their living serving You and Your people.
Others serve You and Your people without pay

on this earth.

But oh, the untold treasure they’re laying up in heaven!

where moth and rust do not destroy
and strangers, friends, family and the government

cannot steal.

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

“If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture…”
(James 2:8)

It’s possible to have one of Your laws in my theology, Jesus

without having it in my life.

How can I say I believe what You say

if I don’t do what You say?

It’s a lie, isn’t it?
If I truly believe it, I’ll do it.

Saying I believe without action
is self-deluded disobedience.

Please show me:

Where am I giving mere lip service to Your Word?

“The LORD said to Moses…”
(Numbers 3:40)

I know You talked to Moses, Jesus, which is why we have –

Genesis…Exodus…Leviticus…Numbers…Deuteronomy…
Psalms 90…maybe the book of Job.

You gave Your Word to us through at least 40 different people

over approximately 4,228 years.

When I read the Bible, I’m not reading some person’s made-up ideas.

I’m reading Your Words to me.

That’s why my heart burns within me

when I read, hear and understand Your Word!

…my life forever changed.

Pray this Lazaroo with supreme confidence:

“’…the word of the Lord stands forever.’ And this is the word that was preached to you.”
(1 Peter 1:25)

It’s the only word worth preaching, Jesus.

No matter how sincere, no matter how well-researched
no matter how firmly based on hard-earned personal experience

my word won’t stand.

Try though I might, mean it with everything in me
I’m still flawed – because I’m human!

It’s inevitable: I will make mistakes.

But!

When my word agrees with Yours
I’m flawless.

(Matthew 2:23)

Always, Jesus.

Always, always, always.
You always keep Your Word.

In this world of

“I was going to…”
“I meant to…”
“Something came up…”
“I may have been mistaken…”
“I hope this is good enough…”
“I have no idea what happened…”
“Oops!”

…and outright liars

the utter reliability of Your Word is the only thing I can trust

because You are the only one I can trust.

I can personally attest!

When I’m weak, Your words give me strength.
When I’m afraid, Your words give me courage.
When I’m in pain, Your words bring me healing.
When I’m in despair, Your words fill me with hope.

And on the day when I am about to draw my last breath

Your words give me absolute assurance

of eternal life.
