Pray this Lazaroo in awed faith:

“In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David.”
(Luke 2:1,4)

Did Joseph know that He was fulfilling Scripture, Jesus?

Whether or not he knew
that’s exactly what he was doing.

I love that You prompted Caesar Augustus to do his part, too!

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“The Lord said to Moses, ‘Take a census also of the Gershonites by their families and clans. Count all the men from thirty to fifty years of age who come to serve in the work at the tent of meeting.”
(Numbers 4:21-23)

Why would You command Moses to count these people, Jesus?

You already knew how many there were.

In fact, as we humans almost always do
they probably made a few mistakes while they were counting.

But You have us count people because people count!

especially those who faithfully serve You.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“…and they were found to be…”
(2 Chronicles 2:17)

 In this case, it was only a number Solomon wanted to know, Jesus

although the high number reported to him was crucial:

the number of aliens living in Israel.

But what if someone’s investigation was focused on me?

And what if the Someone doing the investigation was You?

What would I be found to be?

In fact, You now know what I am.

May I be pleasing in Your sight!
