Pray this Lazaroo all the way to the marrow of your bones:

“Dispatches were sent by couriers to all the king’s provinces with the order to destroy, kill and annihilate all the Jews—young and old, women and children—on a single day, the thirteenth day of the twelfth month, the month of Adar, and to plunder their goods.”
(Esther 3:13)

How could such an evil thing happen, Jesus –

especially to Your chosen people?

It was because You were about to rescue them
and also destroy their enemies!

Help me to remember that

next time something evil shows up at my door.

Pray this Lazaroo with outrageous adoration:

“…more than I ask.”
(Philemon 1:21)

Who does that, Jesus?

Really good people
powered by You.

Most people do less

attempting to gauge the minimum it takes to get by.

Doesn’t matter how much I ask.

They have their margins, their schedules, their limits.

Frankly, so do I.

But when I feel Your inner prompt, Holy Spirit

when You rise up within me
flooding me with conviction

I’m able to rise above myself
and be better than my best.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“…we are…created in Christ Jesus to do good works…”
(Ephesians 2:10)

But before I can do good, Jesus

I have to be good.

Bad people do bad things. Good people do good things.

I do what I am.

True, sometimes bad people do good things

usually from an ulterior motive.

Good people often do bad things

because we’re weak…still growing…battling temptation.

But by faith –

through my deepening, daily, 1on1 relationship with You –

those good works are on the way.

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“Declare them guilty, O God!”
(Psalms 5:10)

David didn’t pray this prayer over people who’ve merely slipped, Jesus.

When I run into one of those, I beg You to forgive them,
pick them up, teach them, give them another chance.

After all…that’s what You keep doing for me.

But David has run into a few pathological liars

whose souls are wicked to the core.

He knows the heartbreak, ugliness and devastation that bunch can cause

…and so do You.

Stay focused as you pray this Lazaroo:

“But you have turned from the way…”
(Malachi 2:8)

Your way is the only road worth traveling, Jesus –

where joy arises
where growth occurs
where good takes place
where people are healed
where hope springs eternal
where amazing things happen
where bad people become good
where good people become great
where nobodies become somebody
where broken relationships are restored
