Pray this Lazaroo all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“Arise, Lord, in your anger; rise up against the rage of my enemies. Awake, my God; decree justice. Let the assembled peoples gather around you, while you sit enthroned over them on high.”
(Psalms 7:6-7)

When I see evil people getting away with outrageous atrocities, Jesus

this is the kind of prayer I want to pray!

I want the whole world to see what You do
to punish those who sin

until, stunned

I remember I’m a sinner, too.

Add this strategy to your toolbox, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“We alone will build it for the Lord, the God of Israel, as King Cyrus, the king of Persia, commanded us.”
(Ezra 4:3]

Their enemies didn’t get it, Jesus.

They couldn’t grasp
why Your people didn’t want their help to build the temple.

So the heads of Your families spoke their language –

answered them with a reason they could understand.

When I experience opposition from Your enemies

help me answer them with words supplied by You

that’ll stop them in their tracks.

Watch your step! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“When the enemies of Judah and Benjamin heard that the exiles were building a temple for the Lord, the God of Israel, they… said, ‘Let us help you build because, like you, we seek your God…’”
(Ezra 4:1-2)

It’s a fact, Jesus:

Your enemies will sometimes pretend to be my friends.

Oh, how I need Your guidance, Holy Spirit!

Help me see through them!

May I never be so desperate for friends

that I fall for their lying deception.

(Daniel 2:28)

That’s my comfort, Jesus!

You Exist. You’re real. You’re There.

You’re here!

When people misunderstand what I’m trying to do and berate me, this is why I can sit there and take it:

“Yeah, ‘…but there is a God in heaven!’”

When my enemies attack me and attempt to destroy me and the work I’m trying so hard to do for you, this is what keeps me plugging away:

“Yeah, ‘…but there is a God in heaven!’”

Take note! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…The LORD…saved them out of the hands of their enemies as long as the judge lived…”
(Judges 2:18)

It’s pretty important to have a Spirit-filled leader, isn’t it, Jesus?

Somebody You’ve called, who’s full of Your love and wisdom.
A person who gets guidance and direction straight from You.
A man or woman You truly love to bless.

Leaders who stay in Deep, Daily, Moment-by-Moment 1on1 relationship with You

tend to inspire their flock to do the same.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“…all the people are melting in fear because of us.”
(Joshua 2:24)

The men Joshua sent to spy out the land needed that encouragement, Jesus!

So did Joshua and the Israelites.

You were calling them to attack a huge, fortified city.

They had never done anything like this.

To realize You had gone before them and weakened the resolve of their enemies provided a huge boost of confidence.

You were with them!

Remind me each day, LORD:

You’ve gone ahead of me!

Pray this Lazaroo in trusting obedience:

“…deal with them…”
(Lamentations 1:22)

…because I can’t, Jesus!

Oh, I can deal with my enemies

poorly
in a way
inadequately
blindly

but not like You can!

You know which of them I now regard as enemies

will one day become my friends.

You know which of them are acting innocently

and which are acting with evil, malevolent intent.

So I’m going to do my best to obey You

by praying for them

and ask You to handle it.

Pray this Lazaroo with fervent spirit:

“Before them the earth shakes…”
(Joel 2:10)

Pretty scary, Jesus.

When the sound of my approaching enemies shakes the earth

it makes me want to run –

until I remember:

You Are my Stronghold!

My enemies can shake the earth a little

but You can shake it a lot.

When by faith I stubbornly refuse to tremble before my attackers

You see and approve.

You know I’m overruling my natural instincts
because I believe You Are Greater!

and I’ll prevail.

(1 Samuel 2:10)

Through my faith in You

You’ve anointed me, too, Jesus!

Thank You!

But what’s up with this, “exalt the horn” business?

I don’t have a horn growing out of my head. 😉

Although…animals do –

rams…deer…antelope…buffalo…rhinos.

Their horns give them a majestic bearing…

honor among all the other animals…

a weapon of power against their enemies.

Wow. Yes, LORD!

By all means: Exalt the horn of Your anointed!

Pray this Lazaroo in passionate gratitude:

“…they dart about like lightning.”
(Nahum 2:4)

It’s not much fun to have enemies who can do that, Jesus!

They’re too fast.
I can’t keep track of them.

I don’t know when the next attack is coming
or where it’s coming from.

I can feel their thunder
way down in my bones.

If they succeed in striking me
I’m fried.

But You Are my God!

You Are my Protector!

I will not fear!

…for You are LORD of the lightning.
