Pray this Lazaroo in zealous love:

“Don’t you know that you yourselves are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in your midst? If anyone destroys God’s temple, God will destroy that person; for God’s temple is sacred, and you together are that temple.”
(1 Corinthians 3:16-17)

I don’t take this seriously enough, do I, Jesus?

This is real.
We together – Your Church – are Your temple.

Help us at least begin to grasp the honor You have bestowed on us!

Rise up within us, Holy Spirit
to live accordingly.

Pray this Lazaroo with utter abandon:

“When all the work Solomon had done for the temple of the Lord was finished, he brought in the things his father David had dedicated—the silver and gold and all the furnishings—and he placed them in the treasuries of God’s temple.”
(2 Chronicles 5:1)

Father and son working together, Jesus

to honor You.

Although that’s beautiful

it doesn’t always happen.

But You’re my Father

and I’m Your child.

What do you say let’s work together
to bring glory to Your holy Name!

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!

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…the gold he used was gold of Parvaim.”
(2 Chronicles 3:6)

No one today knows the location of Parvaim, Jesus.

But it’s telling that when it came time to decorate Your temple
Solomon refused to use whatever gold was easily available.

Instead, he sought out the finest, purest gold
and paid whatever price necessary
to give You the best.

That’s the desire of my heart, Father!

You deserve the very best
because You give Your very best to me.

Hold nothing back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…the builders laid the foundation of the temple of the LORD…”
(Ezra 3:10)

Well…they did and they didn’t, Jesus.

Of course Your Word is accurate.
The builders did lay a physical foundation.

But there’s another sense in which no human builder could ever lay the foundation for Your temple

because no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid:

You.

Every other foundation anyone lays

is laid on my Creator and Savior
the only sure Foundation.

Pray this Lazaroo in awe:

“…before one stone was laid on another in the LORD’S temple.”
(Haggai 2:15)

I’m thinking of a stonemason who’s built a hundred buildings, Jesus

but never one like this.

Your temple!

The place dedicated to You, to Your glory
the sacred heart of Israel where You chose to dwell.

Would that stonemason have trembled as he picked up his first stone?

Do I…

as I prepare to offer my service

to the one and only
God of the ages?

Pray this Lazaroo with keen anticipation:

“Then Solomon began to build the temple of the LORD…”
(2 Chronicles 3:1)

I can only imagine the joy of that moment, Jesus!

Solomon’s father David had longed for this privilege
but You would not allow him to build your temple.

Solomon knew You had saved this honor for him.

Based on the prayer he prayed at its completion
he was thrilled…and deeply humbled.

What have you saved for me to do, Father?

Please.
Don’t let me miss it.

Pray this Lazaroo with over-the-top trust:

“…they were to camp on the north side of the tabernacle.”
(Numbers 3:35)

What an honor, Jesus!

…to camp anywhere near Your tabernacle.

But to have a place near Your Presence designated as theirs, night after night after night?

There are no words.

Of course, those days are long gone.

You, the promised Messiah
came, died, rose.

When You left, You sent the Holy Spirit to indwell all who believe

Including me
to become Your temple
forever and ever.
