Lazaroo – Friday, August 21, 2009
Aug 21, 2009 I Lazaroo.
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with no-holds-barred surrender:
”To God’s elect…who have been chosen…through the sanctifying work of the Spirit…”
(1 Peter 1:1-2)
Thank You for performing Your sanctifying work in my life, Holy Spirit!
You’ve taken a filthy person who was unclean, unfit, unworthy…and You’ve
washed me
justified me
made me holy
Nor is Your transforming work changing me merely on the outside.
You’re penetrating my very being
going all the way down to my inmost parts.
Stunningly – I tremble to say it –
I am now an offering acceptable to You
I now have in store for me a vast inheritance.
May I never take this miracle for granted.
May I never insult You, Holy Spirit
by returning to my former way of life
and treating as an unholy thing
the blood of Jesus my Savior
Sanctify me through and through!
So that I will be kept blameless
till the day You return for me.
