Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

Her leaders judge for a bribe, her priests teach for a price, and her prophets tell fortunes for money. Yet they look for the Lord’s support and say, ‘Is not the Lord among us? No disaster will come upon us.’”
(Micah 3:11)

There’s a difference, isn’t there, Jesus –

between leaders who have a heart
to do Your work

and those who refuse to do Your work
unless they’re paid.

Give us leaders whose sole motivation

is to please You!

Pray this Lazaroo with responsive faith:

“We have heard a message from the Lord: An envoy was sent to the nations to say, ‘Rise…’”
(Obadiah 1:1)

No more sitting down, Jesus!

Sure, there’s a time to kick back and relax

But there comes a day when that time ends

when it’s time to get back to work.

Not my work.
Yours.

Which time am I in, Holy Spirit?

Show me!

I don’t want to be standing when You’ve told me to sit
nor sitting when You’ve told me to “Rise!”

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“They laid its beams…”
(Nehemiah 3:6)

There they were, Jesus…

repairing the Jeshanah Gate of Jerusalem.

When they laid those beams, they weren’t done.

There was a lot of work left to do.

Just as they were, I’m presented with a choice:

I can focus on the size of the huge task ahead of me
and become discouraged

Or I can be filled with thanksgiving for what You’ve accomplished through me

and be invigorated to get back to work.
