Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“Until now, the vine and the fig tree, the pomegranate and the olive tree have not borne fruit.”
(Haggai 2:19)

That’s no accident, is it, Jesus?

It’s an unmistakable pattern that points to You.

Sometimes – for Your own perfect reasons – You keep my life fruitless

to teach…to get my attention…to humble me.

Oh, but I love those words, “Until now!”

When I’ve learned my lesson
when You’ve got my attention
when I’ve been humbled

the fruit will come!

Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“I heard behind me a loud rumbling sound…”
(Ezekiel 3:12)

That would get my attention, Jesus!

For good reason.

It wasn’t a wagon, a rock or a herd of animals.
It was the sound of the wings of supernatural beings!

Shivers. Terror. Awe. Goose bumps.

I’ve never heard that sound Ezekiel heard

but You led him to share it with me so I could imagine it.

But not only imagine it.
Anticipate it!

…when I join him in heaven.

Pray this Lazaroo with a willing heart:

“Afterward the Israelites will return and seek the LORD their God…”
(Hosea 3:5)

Sometimes You have to run me through the ringer, Jesus

to get my obedient attention.

I don’t like to admit that.

I wish it wasn’t true about me.

I much prefer to think like You want me to

say what You want me to

do what You want me to

…without needing negative reinforcement.

Come to think of it…

that’s absolutely what You long for, too.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

“Does a trap spring up from the ground if it has not caught anything?”
(Amos 3:5)

I think I can answer that one, Jesus:

No. Not usually.

If my own sin has trapped me, show me exactly where I’ve misstepped

so I can repent, stop doing it and escape!

But if You’re the one who’s put me in a position where I can’t move

in order to get my attention and teach me something?

You’ve succeeded.
I’m all ears.

Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…in my heart I am disturbed.”
(Lamentations 1:20)

It’s bad enough when something upsets my thinking, Jesus

but when the disturbance settles in my heart

I’ve got to address it
can’t put it off.

It affects everything I think, say and do

the expressions on my face.

You’re the One who disturbs the heart, aren’t You?

You create that inner disturbance

to get my attention about something You want me to do

or what You want me to stop.

Tuesday, January 16, 2018

 

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“I struck all the work of your hands…”
(Haggai 2:17)

How could You, Jesus?

All that work done by Your people
ruined not by their enemies

but by their God.

Why?

Out of love.

You’ll do whatever’s necessary to get my attention and turn me around

before it’s too late.

The destruction of all my work is a small price to pay

for the salvation of my life.

It’s tough love, LORD!

But sometimes…
it’s the love I need.
