Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Surely he has done great things! Do not be afraid, land of Judah; be glad and rejoice. Surely the Lord has done great things! Do not be afraid, you wild animals, for the pastures in the wilderness are becoming green. The trees are bearing their fruit; the fig tree and the vine yield their riches.”
(Joel 2:20-22)

It’s all about You, Jesus

not my circumstances.

It doesn’t matter that my present landscape is barren.

You’re faithful.
You’re on Your way.

As I keep my eyes fixed on You

my desert will blossom!

Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

“I will drive the northern horde far from you, pushing it into a parched and barren land; its eastern ranks will drown in the Dead Sea and its western ranks in the Mediterranean Sea. And its stench will go up; its smell will rise.”
(Joel 2:20)

What an amazing promise You made to Your people, Jesus!

I love knowing that’s who You Are.

Because when I’m facing overwhelming odds
I know I’m not alone.

You’re Able to do for me
what I could never do for myself.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“Look up to the barren heights and see. Is there any place where you have not been ravished? By the roadside you sat waiting for lovers, sat like a nomad in the desert. You have defiled the land with your prostitution and wickedness. Therefore the showers have been withheld, and no spring rains have fallen.”
(Jeremiah 3:2-3)

You liken Your people to a brazen prostitute, Jesus

making it clear how You view our continual sins.

O God!

Keep me pure before You –

in my thoughts, words and deeds.

 Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire: 

“She who was barren has borne seven children…”
(1 Samuel 2:5)

Well…not everyone would like to give birth to seven children, Jesus

…except maybe someone who can’t give birth to one.

Seven kids might be a heap of hassle, challenge, expense and trouble

but it beats none.

If you want children.

Where am I hopelessly barren, LORD?

Where have I given up in total defeat?

Do You want to work through me to create life?

If so…

bring on the seven.
