Pray this Lazaroo by faith, with anticipation:

“… the king gave a great banquet, Esther’s banquet, for all his nobles and officials.”
(Esther 2:18)

Many of us have had birthday, graduation or retirement parties, Jesus.

But not many of us have had a king name a banquet after us.

What did Esther do to deserve such an honor?

Nothing.

Because of Your hand on her life, it wasn’t what she did.

It was what she was going to do.

What’s in my future for Your glory, LORD?

Do it!

Rejoice! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham’s descendants.”
(Hebrews 2:16)

I don’t know how crazy the angels are about that statement, Jesus

but the Jews have to like it a lot

those who truly are Abraham’s descendants, that is –

not those who are merely his biologically
but those who live by the faith of Abraham

who took You at Your Word
no matter what the cost.

On that basis

please consider me a descendant of Abraham.

Pray this Lazaroo with Spirit-led caution:

“When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was…pleasing to the eye…”
(Genesis 3:6)

You’ve taught me this the hard way, Jesus:

Not everything pleasing to the eye
is pleasing to You.

Just because it looks good
doesn’t mean it is good.

Some of the things that catch my fancy
can catch me in their deadly trap.

Thank You for the gift of sight!

But instead of trusting my eyes

I’d do better
to trust Your Word.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“…the house of Jacob will possess its inheritance.”
(Obadiah 1:17)

That’s an easy distinction to overlook, Jesus.

It’s one thing to be left an inheritance
another thing to possess it.

The promise of an inheritance is beautiful, motivating, comforting

but if it doesn’t pan out
it’s devastating.

You’ve promised me an unimaginably great inheritance in heaven

which is mine by faith.

My faith, however

is confirmed by my obedience.

Last time I checked

faith without deeds is dead.
