Allow your soul to sound His praise in this Lazaroo:

“the Levites…with cymbals…”
(Ezra 3:10)

These aren’t the crash cymbals used in a modern rock band, are they, Jesus?

The Levites struck two cymbals together
each about 3-4” wide.

One cymbal made the “A” sound
the other the sound of “C”.

Played together, they created a beautiful, ringing, melodic harmony

which, in the Davidic Cypher, equates to Your Name, YAH.

When they sounded their cymbals, they were playing Your Name –

Hallelu-YAH!

O God!

May my life “sound” Your Name!

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“My dove in the clefts of the rock…”
(Song of Songs 2:14)

Solomon is referring to his wife, Jesus

but what he says about doves is true.

They’re beautiful, gentle…vulnerable.

They hide in the clefts of the rock
to remain unseen by predators –

like foxes, dogs, bobcats, coyotes, weasels
…and man.

If that’s the case

please hide this dove in the clefts of the rock, Father!

and cover me there with Your hand.
and cover me there with Your hand.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“Their throat is an open grave…”
(Psalms 5:9)

Pretty graphic, Jesus.

Over the top, though?
An exaggeration?

Sadly, no.
I’ve run into some like that.

As with a grave prepared for mourners

they can look peaceful, even beautiful.

But the closer I get

the more danger I’m in.

They’re a hole in the ground.

If I fall into it, I can break my neck.
People would throw dirt on top of me.

O God!

From such people, spare me!

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“…she won his favor and approval…”
(Esther 2:17)

There’s no doubt about it, Jesus –

Esther was beautiful.
Beautiful people win favor and approval more easily than others.

But that’s not why this king was so attracted to her.

You made it happen.

You positioned her in the crucially important role

You designed her to carry out.

If I’m obedient, You’ll grant me the favor and approval I need

to carry out every task and role You’ve designed for me.
