Be very careful, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…horses and their riders will fall…”
(Haggai 2:22)

A rider on a horse may feel safer, Jesus, almost invincible.

The horse raises them up high off the ground
making them feel above it all.

The horse is faster than soldiers on foot
able to race away from danger.

But it’s an illusion, isn’t it?

A rider on a horse is a bigger target

and the bigger they are
the harder they fall.

Maybe I’d better stay humble

and not get up on my high horse.

Pray this Lazaroo with full attention:

“All that night Abner and his men marched through the Arabah. They crossed the Jordan, continued through the morning hours and came to Mahanaim. Then Joab stopped pursuing Abner and assembled the whole army.”
(2 Samuel 2:29-30)

It’s no fun to be chased by an enemy, Jesus –

especially one that is bigger, stronger, faster, better equipped.

But when that happens to me, I cry out to You!

You’re the only one who can instantly stop them in their tracks.

Pray this Lazaroo in joyous adoration:

“…make straight your way before me.”
(Psalms 5:8)

A straight path sure beats crooked, Jesus!

It allows me to see farther
which allows me to plan more wisely.

If there are rocks or holes in the road
it’s much easier to miss them.

Fewer sharp turns
means I can go faster.

But the best thing about a straight path

is that I’m far less likely to get lost along the way.

O God!

Make straight Your way before me!

 Pray this Lazaroo with rejoicing: 

“And God said, ‘I will be with you.’ ”
(Exodus 3:12)

That’s all I need to know, Jesus!

When You’re with me, I’m

unstoppable…
unless there’s danger ahead

always on top…
unless it’s better on bottom

wiser…
unless I need to be humbled

faster…
unless it’s time to slow down

bigger…
unless there’s an advantage to being smaller

calmer…
unless my emotions ought to be stirred

first…
unless the sweet spot is at the back of the line.
