Lazaroo – Wednesday, April 10, 2013
No comments, Apr 10, 2013
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, with mounting confidence:
“It was revealed to them that they were not serving themselves but you, when they spoke of the things that have now been told you by those who have preached the gospel to you…”
(1 Peter 1:12)
You don’t have to say it to me more than once, Jesus
but You do!
You’re God.
You shouldn’t have to repeat Yourself to obtain my wholehearted obedience
but You do!
Over and over again
You proclaimed Your Word to me through Your prophets of old
then over and over again
You affirmed their words through Your apostles.
But it doesn’t stop there!
Over and over again in my daily life
You confirm the truths of the Bible
over and over again in my thought life, Holy Spirit
You supply me with inner promptings
subtle nudges
repeated reminders
of the righteous course You’ve called me to take
leaving me…
without excuse.
