Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“Rehum the commanding officer and Shimshai the secretary wrote a letter against Jerusalem to Artaxerxes the king…”
(Ezra 4:8)

I don’t care who wrote such a letter, Jesus.

Whether it’s the president of the United States
one of the 43 kings who reign over countries today
or the high potentate of all high potentates on earth

Nobody – but nobody! –

had dare take a stand against Jerusalem
the holy place You chose above everywhere on earth

for Your Name to dwell.

Pray this Lazaroo in stunned realization:

“…they have rebelled against you.”
(Psalms 5:10)

Some people rebel against You defiantly and openly, Jesus.

Others do so while outwardly professing their faith in You.

If all sin is a form of rebellion then I shamefully confess:

I’ve rebelled against You.

No, I’ve not rejected You as my Savior

but every time I do what I know I shouldn’t
I’ve rebelled against You as my LORD.

How dare I – Your soldier in Heaven’s army –

disobey my Commanding Officer?

Pray this Lazaroo with an open heart:

“…he wants to please his commanding officer.”
(2 Timothy 2:4)

Most people do, Jesus…

some because they like their commanding officer
some because they fear their CO

some kiss up because they want a promotion.

But not everyone wants to please their commanding officer.

Some want to undermine them, discredit them
get them replaced.

Through all the layers of authority, You’re my ultimate CO, Father.

I answer to You.

One thing’s for sure:

I definitely want to please You.

Pray this Lazaroo in breakthrough insight:

“No one serving as a soldier gets involved in civilian affairs…”
(2 Timothy 2:4)

I’m Your soldier, Jesus, at Your command.

Am I getting involved in anything that’s none of my business?

If so, please show me!

I don’t want to mess it up.

Nor do I want to be distracted
from the awesome mission You’ve assigned to me.

Besides…

people tend to meddle in the affairs of others
when they don’t know what to do with their own.
