Pray this Lazaroo with keen anticipation:

“Hananiah, one of the perfume-makers, made repairs next to that.”
(Nehemiah 3:8)

Question: What’s a perfume-maker doing working on a city wall, Jesus?

Answer: It’s not just any wall.
It’s Your wall, the greatest of all walls

the wall protecting the city of Jerusalem.

It doesn’t matter if I haven’t been formally trained

in what You’ve called me to do.

All I have to be sure of is Your calling

confident that You will qualify me in Your way and time.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“…he is the messenger of the LORD Almighty.”
(Malachi 2:7)

What a privilege, Jesus!

…and what an awesome responsibility.

To be one whose job it is to share Your truth with others

is a glorious, fearsome calling.

Once that was the task You assigned to Your priests, Your prophets

but today…on this side of the cross…

no longer just them.

That glad pleasure…that terrifying mission…

has been given to every one
of those who by faith follow You

including me.

Embrace your calling as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Aaron and his descendants were the ones who presented offerings on the altar of burnt offering…”
(1 Chronicles 6:49)

You’ve got an assignment for everyone, Jesus

but You have so much that needs to be done
so many lives to be touched

that we can’t all do the same job.

What a tragedy if I’m so envious of what someone else is doing

that I totally miss the indescribable joy
of doing what You’ve designed me to do.
