Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“Now the priests who carried the ark remained standing in the middle of the Jordan until everything the Lord had commanded Joshua was done by the people, just as Moses had directed Joshua. The people hurried over…”
(Joshua 4:10)

It’s incredibly hard to stand still, Jesus –

especially when everybody else is hurrying past
under the shadow of a towering wall of water!

But may I move when You say move

and stay put when You so command.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“He made the curtain of blue, purple and crimson yarn and fine linen, with cherubim worked into it. For the front of the temple he made two pillars, which together were thirty-five cubits long, each with a capital five cubits high.”
(2 Chronicles 3:14-15)

King Solomon didn’t actually do the work, Jesus

but he’s the one who ordered it done.

If he hadn’t, the temple wouldn’t have been built.

From leader to worker

it takes us all!

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“But as for you…”
(Deuteronomy 1:40)

What a reminder, Jesus.

There’s everybody else
and then there’s me.

Sometimes You tell us all to do the same thing.

But without exception
each of our roads is different in some respect.

Help me be a team player when You want me to jump in with the rest.

But may I always be ready to do what nobody else is doing
when You send me out on my own
with a unique, holy assignment.

Pray this Lazaroo in humble confidence:

“…the LORD will judge the ends of the earth.”
(1 Samuel 2:10)

So that means nobody escapes, Jesus.

One day everyone will stand before You to give account

including me.

But the good news is that because I continue to put my faith and trust in You alone

heaven is my home
firm and secure.

When I’m judged by You

it will be to evaluate the quality of my service to You throughout my life

and be rewarded accordingly.

Pray this Lazaroo in baffled amazement:

“So the king of Israel set out with the king of Judah…”
(2 Kings 3:9)

Talk about being unequally yoked, Jesus…

the king of Judah was honoring You
the king of Israel was not.

Still, You worked stunning miracles and gave this flawed partnership victory against their enemies on that day.

Why? Because it further advanced Your Plan of the Ages.

You’ll work through the worst of us and the best of us, won’t You?

…along with everybody in-between.
