Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Now the glory of the God of Israel went up from above the cherubim, where it had been, and moved to the threshold of the temple. Then the Lord called…‘Go throughout the city of Jerusalem and put a mark on the foreheads of those who grieve and lament over all the detestable things that are done in it.’”
(Ezekiel 9:3-4)

Place that mark on my forehead, Jesus!

I’m brokenhearted about what is happening in my country
and around the world.

Because I’m faithful to Your Word

may many others receive that mark.

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“…Mordecai…tore his clothes, put on sackcloth and ashes, and went out into the city, wailing loudly and bitterly. But he went only as far as the king’s gate, because no one clothed in sackcloth was allowed to enter it.”
(Esther 4:1-2)

The king didn’t want to see anybody who was sad, Jesus.

He wanted everything to appear happy.

Thank You for being the King of kings

who invites me to come close to You
when my heart is breaking.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“Eli’s sons were wicked men…”
(1 Samuel 2:12)

That’s every parent’s nightmare, Jesus!

Well…perhaps not every parent.
There may be evil parents who want evil children.

But even those parents
don’t want their children to be evil to them.

You haven’t given us control over our children.

If You had, our parents could have controlled us.

At best, parents have only example and influence.

But please, God! Hear the brokenhearted parent’s prayer:

Rescue and restore the children who stray.

Pray this Lazaroo with Godly emotion:

“I wrote you…with many tears…”
(2 Corinthians 2:4)

I guess they’re far more spiritual than the Apostle Paul, Jesus –

those who insist if I have enough faith

I’ll always smile no matter what
I’ll never weep in anguish of heart.

Or maybe not…

because Paul knew there were some things worth weeping over:

lost opportunities
lost blessings
lost people.

Tears for the right reason have nothing to do with how much faith I have

but with how much love.
