Pray this Lazaroo in passionate gratitude:

“’…I have chosen you,’ declares the Lord Almighty.’”
(Haggai 2:23)

To be chosen for something good is gratifying, Jesus.

But to be chosen by You?

Priceless.

Before You ever chose me

You knew me
because You made me.

You knew the countless sins I would commit
the mistakes I’d make

and still You chose me!

Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!

No matter what I face

no matter what trials You take me through

may I never forget that eternally life-changing fact!

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“‘I am against you,’ declares the Lord Almighty. ‘I will burn up your chariots in smoke, and the sword will devour your young lions.’”
(Nahum 2:13)

The young lions are the future, Jesus.

If You punish a nation by destroying the best of their youth
You doom that country to become increasingly weak

eventually to disappear

which is exactly what happened in 637

to the once great city of Nineveh.

O God!

I beg You: Spare our young lions!

Pray this Lazaroo in renewed dedication:

“‘On that day,’ declares the Lord Almighty, ‘I will take you, my servant Zerubbabel son of Shealtiel,’ declares the Lord, ‘and I will make you like my signet ring’…”
(Haggai 2:23)

Why were You so pleased with this governor of Judah, Jesus?

It was because He had the courage to obey You!

He delivered Your warning to Your people
even though it was the last thing they wanted to hear.

He valued pleasing You
ahead of pleasing them.

Take sober warning, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“‘I am against you,’ declares the Lord Almighty. ‘I will burn up your chariots in smoke…’”
(Nahum 2:13)

This is what happens when You’re against someone, isn’t it, Jesus?

You destroy the things they trust.

Why?

Because they’re trusting them instead of You!

They fail to see that their “chariots” – or whatever they’re trusting –

are gifts from Your hand
given to them in love.

But when they make Your gifts their god

they quickly find out:

You will tolerate no gods before You!

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“If someone brings a lamb as their sin offering, they are to bring a female without defect. They are to lay their hand on its head and slaughter it for a sin offering at the place where the burnt offering is slaughtered.”
(Leviticus 4:32-33)

What an awful and powerful reminder

of the seriousness of my sin, Jesus!

That an innocent little lamb had to die because of what I did!

Especially because I don’t have to sin.

Great God Almighty!

Help me stop it!

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“Elisha said, ‘As surely as the Lord Almighty lives, whom I serve, if I did not have respect for the presence of Jehoshaphat king of Judah, I would not pay any attention to you.’”
(2 Kings 3:14)

What a teaching, Jesus!

There really are people I should respect
people to whom I should pay attention

and people I’d be wise to ignore.

Yes, You command me to love everyone

but when it comes to my time and attention
to consider the source.
