Pray this Lazaroo with outrageous adoration:

“Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all people. “
(1 Timothy 2:5-6)

Those last two words, Jesus:

“all people.”

Not merely the rich, famous or powerful.

“all people.”

Not just deacons, elders and pastors.

“all people.”

Not only the beautiful, talented and likable.

“all people.”

You gave Yourself as a ransom

for poor people, nobodies and powerless
waiters, stockbrokers and nurses
ugly people, clumsy and obnoxious

and for me! – the least deserving of

“all people.”

Pray this Lazaroo with righteous hunger:

“My priests and my elders perished in the city while they searched for food…”
(Lamentations 1:19)

That’s about as desperate as it gets, Jesus.

There’s always food to be found in the city

especially when you’re somebody important
like a priest or an elder

unless the city itself has no food.

They didn’t just go hungry.

They starved to death.

There’s more than one way to die of hunger, isn’t there?

when there’s a famine
of hearing Your Word.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“I urge…that…prayers…be made for…all those in authority…”
(1 Timothy 2:1-2)

Okay, Father…

I’ll do it.
Because You asked.

I pray for everyone in authority over me –

long-term and short term
those in the present, those in my past:

parents, babysitters, teachers, coaches
trainers, mentors, landlords, bankers
mayors, policemen and women, judges
congressmen and women, presidents
pastors, elders, group leaders, point people

Give them wisdom, favor, blessing, understanding, compassion, courage, empathy, Biblical standards, consciences, humility.

In Jesus’ Name!
