Pray this Lazaroo in up-close-and-personal faith:

“…keep a distance of about two thousand cubits between you and the ark; do not go near it.”
(Joshua 3:4)

You gave them a dramatic illustration of Your absolute holiness, Jesus –

unapproachable by sinful human beings.

If they carelessly drew any closer

or dared to reach out and touch the ark itself

they would die.

Oh, how different now!

HALLELUJAH!

At your death the temple curtain that blocked us from entering Your Presence

was torn in two, from top to bottom!

Pray this Lazaroo filled with enormous comfort:

“When you see the ark…follow it. Then you will know which way to go, since you have never been this way before.”
(Joshua 3:3-4)

Sometimes I wish I had a visible ark to follow, Jesus

so I’d know which way to go
since I’ve never been this way before.

But I have something better!

I have You, Holy Spirit!

You’re here, inside me.

If I truly listen for Your inner prompting

I’ll know my next step

which is all I need to know.

Pray this Lazaroo in holy awareness:

“…the officers went throughout the camp, giving orders to the people: ‘When you see the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, and the Levitical priests carrying it, you are to move out from your positions and follow it.’”
(Joshua 3:2-3)

The ark of the covenant was the place of Your Presence, Jesus!

Of course, You’re everywhere present.

But there are some places
where Your Presence is more powerfully felt.

May I always be ready to follow wherever You lead!

Pray this Lazaroo in reverent awe:

“He built the Most Holy Place…”
(2 Chronicles 3:8)

What an honor, Jesus!

To be the person who constructed
the room holding the ark of the covenant –

more sacred than any other place on earth –

the unique focus of Your Presence among us.

Of course, Solomon didn’t do it himself.

As it is today…
it was the unnamed workers
who actually performed Your holy work.

You know which of us merely point

and which bend our backs to the labor.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“Shout and be glad…”
(Zechariah 2:10)

It’s pretty hard to offend You, Jesus

when my praise is outrageously exuberant toward You. 😉

I know I’m supposed to behave in polite company

but sometimes I’m too polite, too quiet, too controlled
when it comes to giving You the honor You’re due.

David was over-the-top with his dancing in front of the ark.

So was Phinehas who was zealously obedient with his spear.

I could do worse
than follow their example.

Pray this Lazaroo in solemn anticipation:

“…all that was done in the Most Holy Place…”
(1 Chronicles 1:49)

The Most Holy Place, Jesus

the inner sanctuary of the temple in Jerusalem

Your dwelling place on earth

containing the Ark of the Covenant

which contained the Ten Commandments
that You carved out with your own finger

entered once a year by the high priest

until its veil was torn from top to bottom at your crucifixion

now empty, covered over

buried under another’s holy place

waiting.
