Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“The day of the Lord is great; it is dreadful. Who can endure it?”
(Joel 2:11)

Those who think this world will forever continue as it is are mistaken, Jesus.

You’re giving us countless chances to stop our sinning
to turn wholeheartedly to You.

But the end of all things as we know them is drawing near.

Our wickedness is mounting up to the skies.

You’re about to come down here with Your saints and angels

and clean things up.

Take warning! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…God did not spare angels when they sinned…”
(2 Peter 2:4)

They had it all, didn’t they, Jesus?

They were with You in heaven!
They saw You, heard You, served You!

But then along came Satan

perhaps the most amazing of all the angels
who looked in the mirror one too many times
and let his pride get the better of him.

One-third of the angels bought into his lies.

May I never follow their horrific example.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“May the glory of the LORD be praised in his dwelling place!”
(Ezekiel 3:12)

I cannot begin to comprehend the magnitude of this praise, Jesus.

Oh, to be there in heaven among countless throngs of angels
singing with voices far surpassing any choir on earth

in impossibly close, perfect, thousands-part harmony
rendering gorgeous notes inconceivable

to the unaided human ear

in all the languages of earth and heaven
with depth of meaning so rich
that my heart bursts in adoration.

Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I heard behind me a loud rumbling sound…”
(Ezekiel 3:12)

That would get my attention, Jesus!

For good reason.

It wasn’t a wagon, a rock or a herd of animals.
It was the sound of the wings of supernatural beings!

Shivers. Terror. Awe. Goose bumps.

I’ve never heard that sound Ezekiel heard

but You led him to share it with me so I could imagine it.

But not only imagine it.
Anticipate it!

…when I join him in heaven.

Pray this Lazaroo in humble adulation:

“…he carved cherubim on the walls.”
(2 Chronicles 3:7)

Sounds beautiful, Jesus.

Had to be impressive.

But give me the real cherubim – Your holy angels! – any day.

Your Hebrew Name Yahweh Saoboth means:

“God of the Angels”

Although they do most of their work while remaining invisible

they appear when You tell them to
deliver messages, execute judgments
and scare the living daylights out of people.

You’ve assigned one or more of them to protect each of Your people…

including me.

Ready yourself for battle, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Abner looked behind him and asked, ‘Is that you, Asahel?’ ‘It is,’ he answered.”
(2 Samuel 2:20)

This was a death-chase, Jesus.

A war was raging.
Asahel was intent on killing Abner.

I, too, am in a war – a holy war – the war of the ages.

The forces of good against the forces of evil.
Angels and believers against demons and God-haters.
My Christian self against my sinful human nature.

O God! Rise up within me in power!

Help me win.

Pray this Lazaroo in absolute trust:

“After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph…”
(Matthew 2:19)

Your mom, Joseph and You had to sit tight, Jesus

until Your Heavenly Father removed the man
who wanted to kill You.

Then Your angel showed up.

In a dream.

That couldn’t have been an ordinary dream!

or Joseph wouldn’t have trusted it.

How will I know if You send an angel to me?

I don’t have to worry, do I?
I’ll know.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“After he has…sent me against the nations…”
(Zechariah 2:8)

This is one of Your angels talking, Jesus

speaking powerful, eye-opening words.

We humans think we’re fighting our own battles – and why not?

We have the weapons and wounds to prove it.

But in reality, the bigger battle is occurring in places unseen by us

none the less real for their invisibility.

What happens there plays out here through us.

O God!
Send Your mighty angels against all our enemies!

Pray this Lazaroo with locked-in faith:

“…and through him to reconcile to himself all…things in heaven…”
(Colossians 1:20)

Huge task, Jesus…

though not as big as it once was.

There was that war in heaven where – along with Satan – You had to expel one-third of Your angels

sending them to earth.

Obviously, You’ve given them the gift of free will, too.

At times, though, it becomes a curse, doesn’t it?
when I use it to rebel against You.

When I do, LORD…

Please.
Quickly.

Reconcile me.
