Stand firm! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…when I could stand it no longer, I sent to find out about your faith. I was afraid that in some way the tempter had tempted you and that our labors might have been in vain.”
(1 Thessalonians 3:5)

For someone who devotes their life to invest in others, Jesus

that has to be one of the most terrifying fears.

Defeat the tempter!
Send him back in utter failure!

May Your people become everything You’ve created us to be.

Take warning, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…the king summoned Shimei and said to him, ‘Did I not make you swear by the Lord and warn you, “On the day you leave to go anywhere else, you can be sure you will die”? At that time you said to me, ‘What you say is good. I will obey.’”
(1 Kings 2:42)

Solomon set Shimei up for failure, Jesus.

The guy just didn’t have it in himself
to do the right thing for the rest of his life

so his life was cut short.

Got it.

Pray this Lazaroo from your heart:

“If you have…any tenderness…”
(Philippians 2:1)

Oh, how I need tenderness, Jesus!

I don’t ask people for it very often.
I’m not sure why.

Maybe because I don’t want to appear weak and needy

but I am.

That’s the truth. I am.

Which is why I’m coming to You.

I can’t put up a front with You.
You know what’s inside me.

You know my fears, frustrations, failures

love me in spite of them

and are so, so tender.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“Go now…”
(Ezekiel 3:11)

Waiting is one of the hardest things I do, Jesus.

The moment You show me something You want to do through me
I’m eager to launch!

But the “when” is as important as the “what,” isn’t it?

Your timing is crucial.

If I go too soon – before You tell me to –

I’ll fail, because I’ll be doing it in my strength, not Yours.

So I wait…and wait…and wait…

until You say, “1/23GO!”
