Pray this Lazaroo in heart-thumping anticipation:

“Deliverers will go up on Mount Zion to govern the mountains of Esau. And the kingdom will be the LORD’s.”
(Obadiah 1:21)

Of course, all the kingdoms of the earth belong to You, Jesus.

And if there are any kingdoms elsewhere in the cosmos
those are Yours, too.

But You’re talking about what happens on our end, aren’t You?

It’s when we make You our LORD
and obey You with all our hearts

that our kingdom
becomes wholly Yours.

Pray this Lazaroo freed of illusion:

“My lover is mine…”
(Song of Songs 2:16)

What a desperate declaration for Solomon’s wife to make, Jesus

in light of the fact that she was only one of 700 –
not to mention Solomon’s 300 concubines.

The less we human beings possess, Father

the more we pretend to have.

It’s easy for me to see that in this woman’s behavior

but where am I exhibiting the same thing in my own?

Nothing I have is mine.
All is Yours.

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“Neither their silver nor their gold will be able to save them on the day of the LORD’s wrath.”
(Zephaniah 1:18)

It’s true, Jesus.

No one can buy You off.
All of it’s Yours to begin with!

That would be like offering to loan a bank the money I had just borrowed from them.

I own nothing.
Not here.

The only thing that’s mine is the treasure I store up in heaven

by obeying You here on earth.
