Monday, June 20, 2022

 

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“But women will be saved through childbearing – if they continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.”
(1 Timothy 2:15)

That’s a pretty amazing promise, Jesus

one to which every pregnant woman can wholeheartedly cling.

But something tells me…

You’ll also save through the painful trials of this life
men and non-childbearing women

who “continue in faith, love and holiness with propriety.”

Increase my faith, LORD!

Help me love others with Your love.

Keep me holy

and all in a way that honors You!

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“Now since we are under obligation to the palace and it is not proper for us to see the king dishonored, we are sending this message to inform the king…”
(Ezra 4:14)

King Artaxerxes had to smell the stench from this heaping pile of garbage from a mile away, Jesus!

These two wicked, jealous yahoos were tattling
because Your chosen servant
was rattling their cages
by obeying You.

Great God!

Help me be a cage-rattler
instead of a garbage-pusher.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“May our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal encouragement and good hope…”
(2 Thessalonians 2:16)

What a reminder, Jesus!

There’s more than one kind of hope.

There’s hope

bad hope

and good hope.

Some things I hope for are just “hope.”

They’re fine…but they don’t really make anything better.

Other things I hope for are “bad hope.”

If I get them, they’ll end up hurting me.

But You Are the Giver of Good Hope!

which is –

all good!

Pray this Lazaroo with renewed determination:

“So Huram finished the work he had undertaken for King Solomon in the temple of God…”
(2 Chronicles 4:11)

So many of us start, Jesus…

so few of us finish

and finish well.

Huram did more than start doing the work You gave him.

He finished it.

Help me not only start doing what You want me to do

when You want me to start it

but help me finish what You want me to do

when You want me to finish it.

Pray this Lazaroo in full-on passion:

“For what is our hope, our joy, or the crown in which we will glory in the presence of our Lord Jesus when he comes? Is it not you?”
(1 Thessalonians 2:19)

For all his power and authority, Jesus

Paul loved the people to whom You had sent him

which, of course, includes me.

When it comes right down to it

it’s all about love.

May I love Your people not only as Paul did

but as did You.

Pray this Lazaroo with explosive feeling:

“Sons were born to Shaharaim in Moab after he had divorced his wives Hushim and Baara. By his wife Hodesh he had Jobab, Zibia, Mesha, Malkam, Jeuz, Sakia and Mirmah. These were his sons, heads of families.”
(1 Chronicles 8:8-10)

I can’t identify with multiple wives, Jesus.

And I know how much You hate divorce.

But I sure can testify that no matter how messed up our lives…

You – and You alone! – have the power to turn them around.

Fully open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart…”
(Colossians 2:2)

What an awesome goal, Jesus!

That’s who I long to be to those around me:

an encouragement.

But it’s not merely saying a nice word or two, is it?

It’s encouraging people’s hearts

letting them know I truly care about them
being there for them when they’re down

telling them the truth they need to hear
in a way that gives them direction and hope.

Because that’s the kind of encouragement I need!

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“When the king of Moab saw that the battle had gone against him, he took with him seven hundred swordsmen to break through to the king of Edom, but they failed. Then he took his firstborn son, who was to succeed him as king, and offered him as a sacrifice on the city wall.”
(2 Kings 3:26-27)

Desperate people who don’t worship You

end up doing terrible, unthinkable things, Jesus!

May my faith be in You alone

causing me to do only what is good!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“…have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God…being found in appearance as a man…humbled himself by becoming obedient to death—even death on a cross!
(Philippians 2:5-6, 8)

Here I am mightily struggling to humble myself, Jesus

when only a few things don’t go my way

while for me, You humbled Yourself
all the way to death.

If called upon, help me humble myself as You did

because You’re the Giver of Eternal Life!

Never forget! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…Shimei stayed in Jerusalem for a long time. But three years later, two of Shimei’s slaves ran off…At this, he saddled his donkey and went…in search of his slaves.”
(1 Kings 2:38-40)

Solomon warned Shimei not to leave the city, Jesus!

After three years, the warning had faded in his mind…

but not in Solomon’s.

Shimei’s faded memory cost him his life.

It doesn’t matter how long ago You tell me something, does it, Father?

Your Word still stands.
