Pray this Lazaroo with never-say-die grit:

“If we endure…”
(2 Timothy 2:12)

That’s one big “if,” isn’t it, Jesus?

It’s one thing to start strong.
I’ve done that plenty of times.

But it’s another thing entirely to keep going through the slog of the middle

all the way to the finish line.

The initial burst of excitement wanes.
There’s pushback…there are setbacks.
My run slows to a walk…a trudge…a crawl.

I’ve started far more times than I’ve finished.

But by Your grace
not this time.

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“He has brought down rulers from their thrones…”
(Luke 1:52)

Yes, You have, Jesus –

far more times than any of us can imagine.

In fact, every ruler whose reign has ever ended

has been brought down by You.

You raise ‘em up
You set ‘em down.

But the reverse is also true:

No one can take down someone You’ve set up:
not by vote, assassination, impeachment or coup.

No ruler is perfect.

But each is perfect
for Your plan.
