Pray this Lazaroo overwhelmed with gratitude and love:

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.”
(John 3:16-17)

I believe, Jesus!

Thank You for coming into this world
to save the likes of unworthy me –

for not condemning me for my inexcusable sins
but saving me and granting me eternal life.

HALLELUJAH!
HALLELUJAH!
HALLELUJAH!

Fully open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I am glad and rejoice with all of you. So you too should be glad and rejoice with me.”
(Philippians 2:17-18)

That sounds reasonable, Jesus…

until I realize Paul was referring to his coming martyrdom
for sharing his faith.

Paul had made such an impact for You

that Your enemies wanted to kill him for it.

There are many places in this sin-sick world where that can still happen.

If those were my stakes
would I be willing to take that risk for You?

Pray this Lazaroo in absolute awe:

“And now, my daughter, don’t be afraid. I will do for you all you ask.”
(Ruth 3:11)

Most of the people in this world have never heard such words, Jesus.

Ruth wouldn’t have heard them either
if You had not put them in Boaz’s mouth.

It was Your Will to bring the two of them together

to become Your ancestors through David

all the way down to Your birth in Bethlehem.

There is no one like You.

Not even close.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“…whatever the law says, it says to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be silenced and the whole world held accountable to God. Therefore no one will be declared righteous in God’s sight by the works of the law; rather, through the law we become conscious of our sin.”
(Romans 3:19-20)

Well, I’m certainly conscious of mine, Jesus.

My sins stare me in the face.
I live with their consequences.

But Hallelujah!

Through my faith in Your death and resurrection
I’m no longer under the law!

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“Then you will know that I am in Israel, that I am the LORD your God, and that there is no other…”
(Joel 2:27)

The heathen world worships gods of their own invention Jesus

creating idols

supposing there must be
gods of the sun, moon, sea,
plants and animals

not understanding that You created them all.
You’re the God of all.

Please help me not think, talk or act like a heathen

while pointing the lost to You.

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful faith:

“…show mercy…”
(Jude 1:23)

That’s what You did when You came to earth, Jesus.

In stunning mercy,

You deliberately chose
to experience what it means to be human..

Because You’re God, You already knew.

But when You entered this world as a baby

for the first time ever
You felt what we feel.

Now, when we come to You with our hurts and sorrows

You’re not limited to intellectual understanding.

You feel it
You get us

You share our emotions
in a way You never did before.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Now the glory of the God of Israel went up from above the cherubim, where it had been, and moved to the threshold of the temple. Then the Lord called…‘Go throughout the city of Jerusalem and put a mark on the foreheads of those who grieve and lament over all the detestable things that are done in it.’”
(Ezekiel 9:3-4)

Place that mark on my forehead, Jesus!

I’m brokenhearted about what is happening in my country
and around the world.

Because I’m faithful to Your Word

may many others receive that mark.

Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I have much to write to you…”
(2 John 1:12)

I believe it, Jesus.

Of all Your disciples,
John seems to be the one closest to You.

At least He felt that way.

Again and again he called himself:

“…the disciple Jesus loved.”

Of course, You love the world.

You love all those who’ve put their faith in You
although a lot of them don’t feel Your love like John did.

However, I sure would like to.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“’Their throats are open graves; their tongues practice deceit.’ ‘The poison of vipers is on their lips.’ ‘Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.’ ‘Their feet are swift to shed blood; ruin and misery mark their ways, and the way of peace they do not know.’ ‘There is no fear of God before their eyes.’”
(Romans 3:13-18)

That’s what You see when You look at this world, Jesus.

It has to break Your heart!

May that never be what You see

when You look at me.

Pray this Lazaroo in open-eyed awareness:

“Then the Lord said to Cain, ‘Why are you angry? Why is your face downcast? If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must rule over it.’”
(Genesis 4:6-7)

Sin is crouching at my door, too, Jesus.

May I never forget how passionately and persistently
sin desires to have me!

But may I always remember:

Greater are You in me
than the one who is in the world!
