Lazaroo – Friday, April 12, 2013
No comments, Apr 12, 2013
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with outrageous adoration:
“I think it is right to refresh your memory…”
(2 Peter 1:13)
Peter’s right, Jesus.
I need my memory refreshed!
I’ve got to remember what I was before You saved me
lost
blind
totally undeserving
in sin-debt up to my ears
no way to ever pay it back
spiritually bankrupt.
Especially when Satan unloads his latest salvo against me I’ve got to remember
how many times You’ve rescued me!
Help me recall those times when I thought You had abandoned me
only later to learn that You were timing Your deliverance
waiting for the perfect moment
the greater victory.
And how dare I ignore the steady stream of instances recounted in Your Word?
Again and again throughout history
You’ve answered the desperate prayers of Your people
made a way through rivers and seas
healed the sick
raised the dead.
That’s
who
You
are.
Oh, Holy Spirit!
Help me remember.
