Pray this Lazaroo with anticipation:

“ In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for special purposes and some for common use. Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.”
(2 Timothy 2:20-21)

I long to be useful to You, Jesus!

Please prepare me for every good work
You have in mind for me to perform

to Your everlasting glory!

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for special purposes and some for common use. Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes, made holy…”
(2 Timothy 2:20-21)

So that’s my reward for cleansing myself, Jesus?

To be made holy?

I’ll take it!

Going to work on cleansing myself right now.

Wow. This is harder than I thought.

Only You!
Only You!
Only You!

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for special purposes and some for common use. Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes…”
(2 Timothy 2:20-21)

I long to be an instrument in Your Hands, Jesus…

for Your chosen special purpose.

To qualify, I’ve got to cleanse myself of every wrong thought, word and deed.

Is it worth it to me?

Oh, yes.

Pray this Lazaroo in renewed dedication:

“In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for special purposes and some for common use.”
(2 Timothy 2:20)

Not everyone owns articles of gold and silver, Jesus

because not everyone lives in a large house.

Most of us, however, have at our disposal articles of wood and clay.

May You enable me to use everything You have placed in my hands
to bring glory and honor to You!

Pray this Lazaroo in never-say-die determination:

“But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.”
(2 Corinthians 4:7-9)

You Are that Treasure, Jesus!

It’s true:

I’m often hard-pressed, perplexed, persecuted
even struck down…

but never:

crushed, in despair, abandoned
and certainly not destroyed.

All this for You, LORD –

Shine through me!

Go on high alert, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Now, son of man, take a block of clay, put it in front of you and draw the city of Jerusalem on it. Then lay siege to it: Erect siege works against it, build a ramp up to it, set up camps against it and put battering rams around it.”
(Ezekiel 4:1-2 )

You weren’t telling Ezekiel to play toy soldiers, Jesus.

You were creating an object lesson
to warn Your people of what was coming.

What’s my object lesson, Father?

Give me eyes that see!

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“All the objects that Huram-Abi made for King Solomon for the temple of the Lord were of polished bronze. The king had them cast in clay molds in the plain of the Jordan…All these things…amounted to so much that the weight of the bronze could not be calculated.”
(2 Chronicles 4:16-18)

Whatever I do for You, spend for You, sacrifice for You, Jesus

is never enough!

But oh, the joy of giving my all

knowing my all

is all You require!

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“As the toes were partly iron and partly clay, so this kingdom will be partly strong and partly brittle. And just as you saw the iron mixed with baked clay, so the people will be a mixture and will not remain united, any more than iron mixes with clay.”
(Daniel 2:42-43)

That’s what sin does to me, isn’t it, Jesus?

It’s the clay mixed with Your holy iron

that makes me fragile and brittle.

I long for all of me

to be filled with You!

Pray this Lazaroo filled with wonder:

“While you were watching, a rock was cut out, but not by human hands. It struck the statue on its feet of iron and clay and smashed them. Then the iron, the clay, the bronze, the silver and the gold were all broken to pieces and became like chaff on a threshing floor in the summer.”
(Daniel 2:34-35)

Through Daniel, You were telling the king what he had dreamed, Jesus!

Only You. Only You. Only You.

O God.
I’m in awe!

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful amazement:

“Your Majesty looked, and there before you stood a large statue—an enormous, dazzling statue, awesome in appearance. The head of the statue was made of pure gold, its chest and arms of silver, its belly and thighs of bronze, its legs of iron, its feet partly of iron and partly of baked clay.”
(Daniel 2:31-33)

You told Daniel exactly what King Nebuchadnezzar saw in his dream, Jesus!

And no wonder.
You’re the one who gave the dream –

not for him alone
but also for us.
