Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“The Lord came and stood there, calling as at the other times, ‘Samuel! Samuel!’ Then Samuel said, ‘Speak, for your servant is listening.’ And the Lord said to Samuel: ‘See, I am about to do something in Israel that will make the ears of everyone who hears about it tingle.’”
(1 Samuel 3:10-11)

When You call, Jesus

I’m ready to listen.

Something tells me that whatever You have to say

will make the ears of everyone who hears about it tingle!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“We always carry around in our body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body. For we who are alive are always being given over to death for Jesus’ sake, so that his life may also be revealed in our mortal body.”
(2 Corinthians 4:10-11)

That explains a lot, Jesus!

Not the explanation I was hoping for
but the one I fully embrace

confident that You know better than I do.

Pray this Lazaroo as you confidently wait on God:

“‘The Lord bless you, my daughter,’ he replied. ‘This kindness is greater than that which you showed earlier: You have not run after the younger men, whether rich or poor.’”
(Ruth 3:10)

Ruth continued to live in a way that honored You, Jesus.

Because You’re who You Are
that was enough.

I have no idea how You’re going to intervene for me.

Knowing You, I expect it will be totally different than I imagine.

But I do know my part in Your miracle:

Continue to live in a way that honors You.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“I care very little if I am judged by you or by any human court; indeed, I do not even judge myself. My conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. It is the Lord who judges me. Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes.”
(1 Corinthians 4:3-5)

You’re my judge, Jesus.

But even better
You’re my compassionate, loving, merciful Savior!

Others see my results.

You see my heart –
how passionately I long to please You!

Pray this Lazaroo in zealous love:

“Barak said to her, ‘If you go with me, I will go; but if you don’t go with me, I won’t go.’ ‘Certainly I will go with you,’ said Deborah. ‘But because of the course you are taking, the honor will not be yours, for the Lord will deliver Sisera into the hands of a woman.’”
(Judges 4:8-9)

Through Your prophet Deborah

You commanded Barak to battle Israel’s enemies.

But he was unwilling to go without Deborah.

May I always obey You LORD
regardless of who tags along.

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“’Their throats are open graves; their tongues practice deceit.’ ‘The poison of vipers is on their lips.’ ‘Their mouths are full of cursing and bitterness.’ ‘Their feet are swift to shed blood; ruin and misery mark their ways, and the way of peace they do not know.’ ‘There is no fear of God before their eyes.’”
(Romans 3:13-18)

That’s what You see when You look at this world, Jesus.

It has to break Your heart!

May that never be what You see

when You look at me.

Pray this Lazaroo to the God who can!

“…Joshua set up at Gilgal the twelve stones they had taken out of the Jordan. He said to the Israelites, ‘In the future when your descendants ask their parents, “What do these stones mean?” tell them, “Israel crossed the Jordan on dry ground.”’”
(Joshua 4:20-22)

You parted the Red Sea for Moses, Jesus.

You parted the waters of the Jordan for Joshua
as Israel entered the promised land.

You know the waters I have to cross, LORD.

Do it again!

Boast in the LORD! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“While the man held on to Peter and John, all the people were astonished and came running to them in the place called Solomon’s Colonnade. When Peter saw this, he said to them: ‘Fellow Israelites, why does this surprise you? Why do you stare at us as if by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk?’”
(Acts 3:11-12)

Peter refused to take credit for Your miracle, Jesus.

As You work miracle after miracle for me

may I always give credit where credit is due!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“But in accordance with the command of the Lord our God, you did not encroach on any of the land of the Ammonites, neither the land along the course of the Jabbok nor that around the towns in the hills.”
(Deuteronomy 2:37)

You have all power, Jesus!

I can go wherever You tell me to go.

But may I never go to a place You’ve declared off limits.

If I try, Your power will leave me

and I’ll fail.

Pray this Lazaroo with an eagerly waiting heart:

“‘The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.’ ‘How can this be?’ Nicodemus asked. ‘You are Israel’s teacher,’ said Jesus, ‘and do you not understand these things?’”
(John 3:8-10)

So much of Your Word, Jesus

I cannot understand on my own.

Teach me, Holy Spirit!

I long to see through Your eyes
and hear with ears You’ve opened!
