Pray this Lazaroo with Holy Spirit confidence:

“The Lord, the God of Israel, commands you: ‘Go, take with you ten thousand men of Naphtali and Zebulun and lead them up to Mount Tabor. I will lead Sisera, the commander of Jabin’s army, with his chariots and his troops to the Kishon River and give him into your hands.’”
(Judges 4:6-7)

If it had been anyone else, Jesus

Barak might have responded:

“Yeah, right.”

But this was the prophet Deborah, Your chosen leader of Israel!

She spoke Your words, not her own.

Like You –

I’d be wise to do the same.

Tremble in Awe, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…‘as surely as I live,’ declares the Lord Almighty, the God of Israel, ‘surely Moab will become like Sodom, the Ammonites like Gomorrah’…”
(Zephaniah 2:9)

When You say, “…as surely as I live,” Jesus

it’s a done deal!

because You are more Alive
than all the rest of us put together.

You’re the Living One!

You’ve Always Been
You Are
You’ll Always Be.

Everything and everyone who draws a breath on this planet –

or anywhere else in Your vast creation

received their life from You.

Take note! as you Pray this Lazaroo:

“‘The man who hates and divorces his wife,’ says the Lord, the God of Israel, ‘does violence to the one he should protect,’ says the Lord Almighty. So be on your guard, and do not be unfaithful.”
(Malachi 2:16)

To the newlywed husband and wife, Jesus

those words are unnecessary and unthinkable!

But with the passage of time

and the inevitable sins they commit against one another

Your warning to every husband whom Satan incites to abuse his wife

is essential.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“Everyone who heard this wondered about it, asking, ‘What then is this child going to be?’ For the Lord’s hand was with him. His father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied: ‘Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has come to his people and redeemed them.’”
(Luke 1:66-68)

What am I going to be, Jesus?

Just because I’m what I am now
doesn’t mean the last chapter has been written.

Whatever the answer
may I bring glory to You!

Add this strategy to your toolbox, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“We alone will build it for the Lord, the God of Israel, as King Cyrus, the king of Persia, commanded us.”
(Ezra 4:3]

Their enemies didn’t get it, Jesus.

They couldn’t grasp
why Your people didn’t want their help to build the temple.

So the heads of Your families spoke their language –

answered them with a reason they could understand.

When I experience opposition from Your enemies

help me answer them with words supplied by You

that’ll stop them in their tracks.

Pray this Lazaroo in holy fear:

“You have no part with us in building a temple to our God. We alone will build it for the LORD, the God of Israel…”
(Ezra 4:3)

That sounds rude, Jesus.

Here these “nice people” were offering to help the Jews build Your temple

and they were rebuffed!

The Jews wouldn’t let them!

But Your leaders recognized that these people were their enemies

looking for a way to sabotage the work.

O God!
Open our eyes!

Watch your step! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“When the enemies of Judah and Benjamin heard that the exiles were building a temple for the Lord, the God of Israel, they… said, ‘Let us help you build because, like you, we seek your God…’”
(Ezra 4:1-2)

It’s a fact, Jesus:

Your enemies will sometimes pretend to be my friends.

Oh, how I need Your guidance, Holy Spirit!

Help me see through them!

May I never be so desperate for friends

that I fall for their lying deception.

Pray this Lazaroo in zealous love:

“May the Lord repay you for what you have done. May you be richly rewarded by the Lord, the God of Israel, under whose wings you have come to take refuge.”
(Ruth 2:12)

Under Your wings, Jesus!

That’s the only place I want to live.

I don’t want anything You don’t want me to have.
I have no desire to do anything You don’t want me to do.
I refuse to go anywhere You don’t want me to go.
