Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“The Merarites were appointed to take care of the frames of the tabernacle, its crossbars…”
(Numbers 3:36)

The crossbars don’t get as much attention as other tent pieces, Jesus

but they were crucially important to Your tabernacle in the wilderness

helping to evenly distribute the load
providing essential stability when struck by desert winds.

I need crossbars in my life, Father!

Your Word
time with You in prayer
encouraging Christian friends

and may I be a crossbar for them.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet’s own interpretation of things.”
(2 Peter 1:20)

I get it, Jesus.

It’s above all because everything hinges on this truth:

These are Your words, not those of any human being.

Even well-intentioned people make mistakes.

You don’t.

I can stake my life on everything I read in these 66 books of the Bible

from Genesis to Revelation

because every truth I encounter

is Yours.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“For the lips of a priest ought to preserve knowledge…”
(Malachi 2:7)

I’m no priest, Jesus

but that goes for me, too.

When You teach me something I need to share it.

When people twist or pervert Your Word
I’ve got to do what I can to set the record straight.

Wait a minute…

I am a priest!

I had almost forgotten that You promote everyone to that holy office

who places their trust and hope
solely in You.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning emotion:

“Hear this word the LORD has spoken…”
(Amos 3:1)

I want to hear every word You’ve spoken, Jesus!

Well…that’s not exactly what I mean.

I want to hear every word You’ve spoken…

…to me.

A lot of them are found in Your Word, Father.

Perhaps most of them.
But not all of them.

Some of them are spoken to me by You, Holy Spirit

deep within my soul.

May I take every word You speak to me

to heart.

Pray this Lazaroo with catalytic dedication:

“…the truth, which lives in us and will be with us forever…”
(2 John 1:2)

That’s the thing about Your Word, Jesus:

It’s truth.
It lasts forever.

Lies have their run, then fizzle.

A falsehood’s greatest effect is the moment it’s uttered.
From then on, the erosion begins…until it’s exposed.

By contrast, truth may be rejected in the beginning

but time is in its favor.

Sooner or later, the bright, authentic power of Your truth wins out.

Every time.
