Pray this Lazaroo with eyes wide open:

“After Ehud came Shamgar son of Anath, who struck down six hundred Philistines with an oxgoad. He too saved Israel. Again the Israelites did evil in the eyes of the Lord, now that Ehud was dead. So the Lord sold them into the hands of Jabin king of Canaan, who reigned in Hazor.”
(Judges 3:31-4:2)

You keep supplying Your people with helpers, Jesus.

They keep repaying Your kindness by disobeying You.

There are consequences for that kind of behavior –
consequences I don’t want to reap.

Pray this Lazaroo, overwhelmed with gratitude:

“…the word of the Lord is against you, Canaan, land of the Philistines. He says, ‘I will destroy you, and none will be left.’”
(Zephaniah 2:5)

It’s one thing to be defeated in battle, Jesus

to be shamed and disgraced
taken captive, reduced to slavery.

But this time it was worse.

The Philistines so infuriated You with their blatant idolatry
that You threatened to annihilate them

leaving no survivors.

That’s what my sins deserve.

But instead of wrath –

through the cross –

You’ve offered me mercy!

Pray this Lazaroo with informed determination:

“Woe to you who live by the sea, you Kerethite people; the word of the Lord is against you, Canaan, land of the Philistines. He says, ‘I will destroy you’…”
(Zephaniah 2:5)

How does Your Word turn against me, Jesus?

It’s when I turn against Your Word, isn’t it?
That’s when utter destruction comes.

I’ll never turn against Your Word, Holy Father!

It’s a lamp to my feet
a light for my path
my comfort in great sorrow

my sure promise of eternal life.

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“I will give it to them…”
(Jeremiah 1:39)

You promised to give Your people the land of Canaan, Jesus.

You were as good as Your Word.

Of course, it was the children of those who left Egypt who got to enter the Promised Land.

Those who rebelled against You in the desert missed it.

Out of the two million or so adults who began that journey

exactly two completed it.

I beg You:
Finish what You started in me!

Pray this Lazaroo buttressed by faith:

“This company of Israelite exiles who are in Canaan…”
(Obadiah 1:20)

That’s wild, Jesus.

They were exiles in the very land You had promised them.

Everybody looked at them like outsiders, intruders

not knowing they were looking down on people
to whom they would one day look up

not realizing these trespassers
would one day become the land’s owners.

I can identify.

Today I walk this land as a foreigner

but my Dad owns it all
and I’m Your heir.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“I will give him…the land he set his feet on…”
(Deuteronomy 1:36)

That’s quite a promise, Jesus.

Of course, Caleb deserved it.

When 10 of the 12 men Moses sent to spy out Canaan returned

only he and Joshua believed You would keep Your promise
and enable the Israelites to take it.

I’m no Caleb, Father.

But with all my heart
I believe You will keep Your promises to me!

Please.

Give me the land You’ve reserved for me.
