Pray this Lazaroo with excuseless humility:

“The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this temple; his hands will also complete it. Then you will know that the Lord Almighty has sent me to you. Who dares despise the day of small things, since the seven eyes of the Lord that range throughout the earth will rejoice when they see the chosen capstone in the hand of Zerubbabel?”
(Zechariah 4:9-10)

Open my eyes, Jesus!

When You do it
I don’t want to miss it!

Pray this Lazaroo with fierce determination:

“…though I am absent from you in body, I am present with you in spirit and delight to see how disciplined you are and how firm your faith in Christ is.”
(Colossians 2:5)

Discipline is good, Jesus…

but it needs the foundation of faith.

Not weak faith.
Not inconsistent faith.
Not wild faith.
Not faith in self.
Not faith in others.
Not faith in science, education, government, or AI.

But rock-solid, firm to the core

faith in You
and in You alone.

On Christ the solid rock I stand.

All other ground is sinking sand.

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable belief:

“‘What are you, mighty mountain? Before Zerubbabel you will become level ground. Then he will bring out the capstone to shouts of “God bless it! God bless it!’” Then the word of the Lord came to me: “The hands of Zerubbabel have laid the foundation of this temple; his hands will also complete it.”’”
(Zechariah 4:7-9)

No one can

turn the tables
flip the script
upend the status quo

like You can, Jesus!

That’s what I need You to do right now.

Pray this Lazaroo with pedal-to-the-metal commitment:

“…God’s solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: ‘The Lord knows those who are his,’ and, ‘Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness.’”
(2 Timothy 2:19)

Yes, I’m Yours, Jesus – You know it!

But that doesn’t mean I can continue in these old sins.
In Your power, help me overcome them!

In the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

May my life bring You honor, dear LORD!

Pray this Lazaroo all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“…God’s solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: ‘The Lord knows those who are his…’”
(2 Timothy 2:19)

Your Word is that foundation, Jesus

not because it’s in writing
not because it’s the Bible
but because it’s You.

You Are The Word.

That’s
Solid.

But what means the world to me is knowing I belong to You!

You know me.
You chose me.
You saved me.
I’m Yours.

Not merely for my time on this earth
but through all eternity!

You’re right:

That seals it!

Pray this Lazaroo in grateful obedience:

“They say that the resurrection has already taken place, and they destroy the faith of some. Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands firm…”
(2 Timothy 2:18-19)

False teachers can do a lot of harm, Jesus.

But may their misunderstanding, lies and deception
never budge me one inch

from the rock-solid certainty of Your Word!

Show me which of those led astray You’re calling me to help!

I know I can’t fix every wrong
but with Your guidance, Holy Spirit

I long to make a difference.

Pray this Lazaroo with unswerving dedication:

“If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, their work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each person’s work.”
(1 Corinthians 3:12-13)

You know when I’m following You with my whole heart, Jesus.

But when I stay true to you through the fire –

temptations, trials, disasters, heartbreak –

everybody else can see it, too.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“By the grace God has given me, I laid a foundation as a wise builder, and someone else is building on it. But each one should build with care. For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.”
(1 Corinthians 3:10-11)

You, Jesus…

Are where it starts.
Where it has to start.

To start anywhere else

is a fool’s errand!

If I don’t start with You

I’ll never finish.

“Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God’s people and also members of his household, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone.”
(Ephesians 2:19-20)

I belong, Jesus! I’m part of something far bigger than myself.

Because I belong to You

I belong to everyone on the face of the earth

who also belongs to You

and to every saint who has preceded me

into heaven.

Pray this Lazaroo in Spirit-given awareness:

“…they saw the foundation of this temple being laid…”
(Ezra 3:12)

How many times have I tried to start something, build something, do something, Jesus…

without properly considering the absolute importance
of laying a deep, strong, solid foundation?

Buildings without good foundations can’t withstand powerful storms.

Neither can projects, missions, businesses, families

lives.

While I’m in such a hurry to get started, I’m tempted to ignore the storms that will come.

But that’s a lethal mistake.
Because they will.
