Pray this Lazaroo in passionate hope:

“…the older women…can train the younger women…to be…pure…”
(Titus 2:3-5)

What a blessing for our younger women, Jesus!

There’s nothing like seeing someone live it in front of me
to learn how it’s done
and witness the wholesome result.

Help me be pure, Holy Spirit!

I long to be a good example for others
but most of all to live the way You’ve called me to live.

I owe You that.

But when I do
I’m the one who wins.

Pray this Lazaroo in continuing awe:

“All the royal officials at the king’s gate knelt down and paid honor to Haman, for the king had commanded this concerning him. But Mordecai would not kneel down or pay him honor.”
(Esther 3:2)

You don’t tell us why Mordecai wouldn’t bow down to Haman, Jesus.

Maybe it was because He refused to bow down to anyone but You.
Maybe it was because He sensed Haman was an evil man.

Regardless, You used it!

…as You do absolutely everything that happens.

Pray this Lazaroo with gratitude, all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“…he cannot disown himself.”
(2 Timothy 2:13)

Do I deserve to be kicked out of Your Church, Jesus?

Yes.
You’re perfect and I’m not.

Do I deserve to be excluded from heaven?

Yes.
You’re sinless.
I’m sinful.

Do I deserve to spend eternity in hell?

Absolutely.
I have knowingly, premeditatedly sinned.
Many times.

But I remain in Your Church. I’m going to heaven, not hell!

I put my trust in You alone.

You and I
are joined at the heart.

Pray this Lazaroo with humility:

(Nehemiah 3:16)

Here’s another ruler willing to get his hands dirty, Jesus!

Maybe that’s why You lifted him into leadership.

Thank You for every person in high position

who doesn’t think they’re too good
to do whatever needs doing
no matter how menial.

Leaders like that

are easy to follow.

Seek Godly guidance, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I also want the women to dress modestly, with decency and propriety, adorning themselves…”
(1 Timothy 2:9)

So You’re not against us looking good, Jesus!

That’s good to know. 😉

But You want us to do so circumspectly when in public, not suggestively.

You want us to dress appropriately for the occasion
to show some respectability, some class.

That doesn’t take a whole lot of money, does it?

When I decide what to wear each morning
may I lean on You, Holy Spirit!

Pray this Lazaroo in respectful appreciation:

“No one could distinguish the sound of the shouts of joy from the sound of weeping, because the people made so much noise. And the sound was heard far away.”
(Ezra 3:13)

What a milestone for Your people, Jesus!

The laying of the foundation of the house of the LORD!

Some were shouting for joy…some weeping for joy.

We’re all different, aren’t we?

Some cried.
Some shouted.

Same event.

May I never judge anyone for how the world appears to them.

Pray this Lazaroo in heartfelt gratitude:

“So then, brothers and sisters, stand firm and hold fast to the teachings we passed on to you, whether by word of mouth or by letter.”
(2 Thessalonians 2:15)

It didn’t make any difference, Jesus –

whether it was something Paul wrote
or what they heard him say.

Their job was to stand firm and hold fast!

I didn’t get to hear what Paul said.

But I’m pretty sure it sounded a whole lot like what he wrote. 😉

Pray this Lazaroo in amazed admiration:

“For the Most Holy Place he made a pair of sculptured cherubim and overlaid them with gold. The total wingspan of the cherubim was twenty cubits. One wing of the first cherub was five cubits long and touched the temple wall, while its other wing, also five cubits long, touched the wing of the other cherub.”
(2 Chronicles 3:10-11)

Solomon had his artisans create stunning figures, Jesus – encompassing 35 feet in all!

May I, too, offer You my very best!

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“The wrath of God has come upon them at last.”
(1 Thessalonians 2:16)

I’m not asking You to punish anyone, Jesus!

Not even those who’ve hurt me the most.

The reason is simple:

I’ve sinned against You so many times.
You’ve forgiven and blessed me times beyond counting.

How dare I ask You to treat them worse
than in Your mercy You’ve treated me?

But for those who deliberately flaunt You without sorrow or regret?

Their day is coming.

Pray this Lazaroo in abject gratitude:

“The descendants of Manasseh: Asriel was his descendant through his Aramean concubine. She gave birth to Makir the father of Gilead.
(1 Chronicles 7:14)

It would have been nice if Asriel had been born to a Jewish woman, Jesus

rather than an Aramean.

It would have been nice if she had been a wife, rather than a concubine.

But you didn’t discard their entire line!
You turned them into captains and great fighters.

Thank You for Your amazing, forgiving mercy!
