Get motivated! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“As for other matters, brothers and sisters, pray for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly…”
(2 Thessalonians 3:1)

Through us, You’re establishing Your kingdom, Jesus

and You don’t want us dragging our feet.

You want us on high alert.
Time’s a-wasting!

People are dying without hearing about You!
Others are on the fence, for lack of good information.

It’s my job to do something about that.

You’ve told me to go tell.
I’d better get with it.

Go on high alert, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Now, son of man, take a block of clay, put it in front of you and draw the city of Jerusalem on it. Then lay siege to it: Erect siege works against it, build a ramp up to it, set up camps against it and put battering rams around it.”
(Ezekiel 4:1-2 )

You weren’t telling Ezekiel to play toy soldiers, Jesus.

You were creating an object lesson
to warn Your people of what was coming.

What’s my object lesson, Father?

Give me eyes that see!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; hold it fast, and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you.”
(Revelation 3:3)

Is there any area of my life where I’m spiritually asleep, Jesus?

Wake me up!

I long to be alert and ready
to repel Satan’s attacks

and to receive whatever You have in store for me.

Pray this Lazaroo on high alert:

“…the people…have gone to Jerusalem and are rebuilding that rebellious and wicked city. They are restoring the walls and repairing the foundations. Furthermore, the king should know that if this city is built and its walls are restored, no more taxes, tribute or duty will be paid, and eventually the royal revenues will suffer.”
(Ezra 4:12-13)

I wish I could always tell when somebody’s lying, Jesus

‘cause that’s what these guys were doing.

Please draw me close

so I can hear Your whisper of warning.

Pray this Lazaroo with growing understanding:

“It is decreed that the city be exiled and carried away.”
(Nahum 2:7)

I wouldn’t want to hear that decree, Jesus –

especially if I had reason to believe
it came straight from You.

Somewhat bizarre people have been standing on street corners for decades

holding signs declaring: “The End is Coming!”
Mostly, people give them a wide berth
and ignore their message.

But I’m staying alert, Father!

If the day comes when Your Word and Your Spirit say, “Go!”

I’m outta here!

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“Will they not wake up…?”
(Habakkuk 2:7)

Your prophet is not talking about nice people, Jesus.

They’re the kind I’d rather see stay fast asleep.
I’m not too crazy about my enemies being sharp and alert.

You’re the only one who can keep them snoozing, Father –

or if they happen to be awake and on the prowl
You’re the only on who can put them to sleep.

On the other hand…

please help me keep my eyes wide open.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“This is a sign to them…”
(Philippians 1:28)

I’m pretty adamant about other people seeing the signs, Jesus

but how am I doing with that?

Just because I see an obvious sign others are missing

doesn’t mean I’m not missing a sign You’re giving me.

I do want to help others see the way

but it’s a little hard to keep them from stumbling
when I’m flat on my face.

Please keep me alert, perceptive, astute, engaged

and humble.
