Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“The Lord said to Moses, ‘Take a census also of the Gershonites by their families and clans. Count all the men from thirty to fifty years of age who come to serve in the work at the tent of meeting.”
(Numbers 4:21-23)

Why would You command Moses to count these people, Jesus?

You already knew how many there were.

In fact, as we humans almost always do
they probably made a few mistakes while they were counting.

But You have us count people because people count!

especially those who faithfully serve You.

Pray this Lazaroo with growing understanding:

“Listen, High Priest Joshua, you and your associates seated before you, who are men symbolic of things to come: I am going to bring my servant, the Branch.”
(Zechariah 3:8)

You, Jesus:

The Branch.
The promised Messiah –

the long-awaited one – the only one –
who could deliver us from our sins.

But You came as You almost always do –

in a way and time we could not have imagined
to pay for our sins with Your own life

in a way we could not have imagined.

Go to school as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I have promised to bring you up out of your misery in Egypt into…a land flowing with milk and honey.”
(Exodus 3:17)

You kept Your promise, Jesus!

You always do.

Of course, there were a lot of tests, trials and battles

between the time Your people left and the time they arrived – 

as there almost always is.

Because of their repeated disobedience

many of them didn’t get to experience that milk and honey.

Help me learn from their mistakes!

Take heed, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“They are…arrogant…”
(Romans 1:29-30)

Arrogance is pretty hard to stomach, Jesus.

When I see it, I cringe.

Sadly, it almost always shows up in those You’ve blessed!

Instead of realizing their gifts, skills and triumphs are from You
they believe it’s all because of them.

They think it’s due to their hard work, their brilliance
their superiority over others

which sets them up for Your inevitable punishment

and their disgrace.

May I never, ever – ever!

follow in their footsteps.
