Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“Joshua said to the Israelites, ‘Come here and listen to the words of the Lord your God. This is how you will know that the living God is among you and that he will certainly drive out before you the Canaanites, Hittites, Hivites, Perizzites, Girgashites, Amorites and Jebusites.”
(Joshua 3:9-10)

You don’t have to prove to me that You’ll do what You say, Jesus.

But You do.
Time and time again.

Thank You, LORD!
Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“…he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that he would place one of his descendants on his throne. Seeing what was to come, he spoke of the resurrection of the Messiah, that he was not abandoned to the realm of the dead, nor did his body see decay.”
(Acts 2:30-31)

You made that promise to King David, Jesus

and You kept it.

You keep all Your promises.

Please, LORD…

help me keep mine.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“Then the Lord said to me, ‘You have made your way around this hill country long enough; now turn north. Give the people these orders: “You are about to pass through the territory of your relatives the descendants of Esau…”’”
(Deuteronomy 2:2-4)

Change my direction anytime You like, Jesus!

I have no desire to go my own way.
I’ve spent way too much time traveling that way in the past.

From here on
Let’s go Your way.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

‘Woman, why do you involve me?’ Jesus replied. ‘My hour has not yet come.’ His mother said to the servants, ‘Do whatever he tells you.’ Nearby stood six stone water jars, the kind used by the Jews for ceremonial washing, each holding from twenty to thirty gallons. Jesus said to the servants, ‘Fill the jars with water’; so they filled them to the brim.”
(John 2:4-7

Mary didn’t tell you what to do, Jesus.

All she did was present the need

and leave it up to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“The Lord said to Moses and Aaron: ‘Take a census of the Kohathite branch of the Levites by their clans and families. Count all the men from thirty to fifty years of age who come to serve in the work at the tent of meeting.’”
(Numbers 4:1-3)

Did you not know how many Levites there were, Jesus?

Of course You did.
You told them to count so they would know.

That happens a lot, doesn’t it?

Thanks.
I appreciate it!

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“He asked for a writing tablet, and to everyone’s astonishment he wrote, ‘His name is John.’ Immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue set free, and he began to speak, praising God. All the neighbors were filled with awe, and throughout the hill country of Judea people were talking about all these things.”
(Luke 1:63-65)

When Zechariah didn’t believe You, Jesus

You struck him “dumb – meaning unable to talk.

When anyone else doesn’t believe You

that’s evidence of the other kind of “dumb.”

Salute Your Commander, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“‘If anyone sins because they do not speak up when they hear a public charge to testify regarding something they have seen or learned about, they will be held responsible.”
(Leviticus 5:1)

So much for, “It’s none of my business,” Jesus.
So much for, “I don’t want to get involved.”
So much for, “If I speak up, it’ll backfire on me.”
So much for, “Why speak up? It won’t do any good.”

You’re the One who made sure I witnessed it –

…and who holds me accountable to testify.

Pray this Lazaroo with overflowing adoration:

“So he said to the man, ‘I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.’ He got up, took his mat and walked out in full view of them all. This amazed everyone and they praised God, saying, ‘We have never seen anything like this!’”
(Mark 2:10-12)

This is Your specialty, Jesus:

You keep showing me things I’ve never seen.

There’s no way I can guess how You’ll answer my prayers

or how You’ll bless me next.

You Are Gloriously, Fabulously, All-Powerfully

Unpredictable!

Pray this Lazaroo in passionate devotion:

“Moses answered, ‘What if they do not believe me or listen to me and say, “The Lord did not appear to you”?’ Then the Lord said to him, ‘What is that in your hand?’ ‘A staff,’ he replied. The Lord said, ‘Throw it on the ground.’ Moses threw it on the ground and it became a snake, and he ran from it.”
(Exodus 4:1-3)

First You had to make Moses believe, didn’t You, Jesus?

You’ve done that for me, too!

Now it’s my job to share my faith with others.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“And do not think you can say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.’ I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham. The ax is already at the root of the trees, and every tree that does not produce good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire.”
(Matthew 3:9-10)

If I’m really Your child, Jesus

I’ll produce fruit.

Not just any fruit.
Good fruit.

The alternative…I don’t even want to think about.
