Pray this Lazaroo in chastened humility:

“Do not deceive yourselves. If any of you think you are wise by the standards of this age, you should become ‘fools’ so that you may become wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight. As it is written: ‘He catches the wise in their craftiness’ ; and again, ‘The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are futile.’”
(1 Corinthians 3:18-20)

So let me get this straight, Jesus:

If I brag that I’m “so wise…”

I might actually be a –

Got it.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“…they allowed no one to cross over. At that time they struck down about ten thousand Moabites, all vigorous and strong; not one escaped. That day Moab was made subject to Israel, and the land had peace for eighty years.”
(Judges 3:28-30)

What an amazing victory, Jesus!

But the Israelites were not that superior to the Moabites.

It wasn’t them.
It was You.

Do I need to work on my skills and improve in every way possible?

Sure.

But to truly win?

Only You.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“What advantage, then, is there in being a Jew, or what value is there in circumcision? Much in every way! First of all, the Jews have been entrusted with the very words of God. What if some were unfaithful? Will their unfaithfulness nullify God’s faithfulness? Not at all! Let God be true, and every human being a liar.”
(Romans 3:1-4)

You made some promises to Abraham, Moses and David, Jesus.

You intend to keep them.

You’ve made promises to me, too

all of which You will fulfill.

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“So the Israelites did as Joshua commanded them. They took twelve stones from the middle of the Jordan, according to the number of the tribes of the Israelites, as the Lord had told Joshua; and they carried them over with them to their camp, where they put them down.”
(Joshua 4:8)

What a powerful symbol and reminder of Your miracle, Jesus!

But there was something even more important that happened on that day:

They did exactly what You told them to do.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer—at three in the afternoon. Now a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts.”
(Acts 3:1-2)

Peter and John thought they were there to pray, Jesus.

The lame man thought he was there to beg.

All three were about to discover:

You had a little something else in mind!

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“I sent messengers to Sihon king of Heshbon offering peace and saying, ‘Let us pass through your country. We will stay on the main road; we will not turn aside to the right or to the left. Sell us food to eat and water to drink for their price in silver.’ But Sihon…refused to let us pass through.”
(Deuteronomy 2:26-28; 30)

There are going to be days like that, Jesus.

I’ve experienced a few of them.

But it helps to remember

it happened in accordance with Your perfect plan.

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“…many people saw the signs he was performing and believed in his name. But Jesus would not entrust himself to them, for he knew all people. He did not need any testimony about mankind, for he knew what was in each person.”
(John 2:23-25)

I wouldn’t blame You for not entrusting Yourself to me, Jesus.

You know exactly what’s in me.

But You did!

You gave Yourself for me on the cross!

to purify me until inside and out
I think, speak and behave

like one of Your own.

Pray this Lazaroo with sold-out surrender:

“Count all the men from thirty to fifty years of age who come to serve in the work at the tent of meeting…Assign to each man the specific things he is to carry.”
(Numbers 4:30, 32)

They had to carry the frames of the tabernacle, Jesus –

along with its crossbars, posts and bases.

They had to carry the posts of the surrounding courtyard

with their bases, tent pegs, ropes, all their equipment
and everything related to their use.

Show me, LORD

what You’ve assigned to me.

Pray this Lazaroo with lavish love:

“…Mary…was pledged to be married…and was expecting a child…the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.”
(Luke 2:5-7)

Just like then, Jesus

some of those You love so much
have no room for You in their hearts.

May my heart be so full of love for You

that it makes up the difference!

Pray this Lazaroo with wholehearted adoration:

“…when they…realize their guilt, they must return what they have stolen or taken by extortion, or what was entrusted to them, or the lost property they found, or whatever it was they swore falsely about. They must make restitution in full, add a fifth of the value to it and give it all to the owner on the day they present their guilt offering.”
(Leviticus 6:4-5)

You not only show me how to repent, Jesus

but You give me extra incentive

to never do wrong again.
