Ask Jesus to forgive your sins and make you new in Him! “Therefore turn from your sins and turn to God, that you may be cleansed from your sins” (Acts 3:19). Tell Him your needs! “Cast all your cares and worries on God, for he cares for you” (1 Peter 5:7).
How do I put it? This is how I have learned to approach the Saviour of my life. With trust and faith that He will deliver: “Because of Christ and our faith in him, we can now approach God’s presence without fear, confident that he will welcome us” (Ephesians 3:12).
“Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of our merciful God. There we will receive his mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need” (Hebrews 4:16). With joy that he can save. “You have shown me the way of life, and you will give me great joy in your presence” (Acts 2:28). With the expectation that He will deliver. “Hear my voice in the morning, Lord. Every morning I present my requests to you and wait in expectation” (Psalm 5:3).
“I pray to you because I know that you will answer me, O God. Bow down and listen to me while I pray” (Psalm 17:6). Pray for one another. Jesus gave us an example of what to pray for. He prayed for his disciples and for every future generation that would follow him. His prayer was that God would protect and strengthen them while they were in this world. Jesus also prayed for those who would come to believe in Him through the gospel message (John 17).

Who was St Lazarus?
Before knowing the prayer to Saint Lazarus, it is necessary to know a little about this Saint, another very interesting life to learn about is that of Saint Catherine. Saint Lazarus was born in Bethany, a small village near Jerusalem. Jesus knew her father Simon and used to visit his house whenever he was in the area.

His sisters Martha and Mary informed Jesus of the seriousness of his condition, but he did not seem concerned. By the time Jesus arrived at Bethany, Lazarus had died and been buried for four days. Jesus went straight to his tomb, prayed and then raised his voice: “Lazarus, come out,” he cried.
And in a moment Lazarus came out of the tomb, wrapped in his own shroud. He was wrapped and returned to his home with Jesus, accompanied by the crowd. After this miracle, even more people believed in Christ and followed his teachings. Because of this, the Jewish leaders decided to kill him.
When St Lazarus heard of their plans, he found himself in Kition (Larnaca) in Cyprus. There he was received by the apostles Paul and Barnabas, who consecrated him as the first bishop of Kition. Lazarus became a model Christian. His physical presence was a sign of God’s love for His people, while his spiritual activity was a symbol of man’s love for God.
Lazarus died at the age of sixty and was buried in Kition in a sarcophagus with the inscription “The four days of Lazarus, friend of Christ”. In 890 AD
the Byzantine Emperor Leo VI, Sophos, transferred the remains of Lazarus to Constantinople and in return built a church in Larnaca dedicated to Saint Lazarus, which still stands today.
