Pray this Lazaroo in deepened understanding:

“…the overseer is to be above reproach…”
(1 Timothy 3:2)

You’ve set the overseer bar awfully high, Jesus

and for good reason.

If the overseer stumbles or falls, it’s a domino effect:

A whole lot of people can get hurt.

That’s why Satan relentlessly and ferociously attacks the overseer –

along with their family, friends and ministries, isn’t it?

To be above reproach
doesn’t mean to be above attack.

During the time You walked this earth

constant attack

is exactly what Satan did to You.

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“Ish-Bosheth did not dare to say another word to Abner, because he was afraid of him. Then Abner sent messengers on his behalf to say to David…Make an agreement with me, and I will help you bring all Israel over to you.’ ‘Good,’ said David. ‘I will make an agreement with you.’”
(2 Samuel 3:11-13)

Ish-Bosheth had good reason to be afraid of his general, Jesus…

because Abner was about to betray him.

Who among those I trust is about to betray me?

You know.
I’d like to know, too.

Sell out totally to God as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…you will suffer persecution for ten days.”
(Revelation 2:10)

At first glance, that’s not a particularly uplifting message, Jesus!

You could have prevented persecution from ever touching their lives.

But on second look, it is encouraging:

Since You chose not to prevent the persecution
there had to be a good reason for it.

You never allow Satan to touch Your people unless it’s worthwhile –

to You and to us.

Good to remember…

next time You allow persecution to come my way.

Pray this Lazaroo with every fiber of your being:

“Is the Spirit of the LORD angry?”
(Micah 2:7)

I know You get that way sometimes, Jesus

because You say so!

That’s because we – for whom You have done so much –

give You good reason to be angry
when we defiantly disobey You.

But I’m still here – and not fried to a cinder by one of your lightning bolts –

because You’re slow to anger

which gives me at least a little time to change my ways

before it’s too late.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“So Boaz said to Ruth, ‘My daughter, listen to me…’”
(Ruth 2:8)

Little did he know, Jesus…

that this young woman he called, “daughter”
would soon become his wife.

There’s a lot I don’t know, too, Father.

Thank You for revealing parts of it to me
when I need to know it!

But some of what I wish I knew

You keep hidden.

I don’t know why, but I know this:

There’s a good reason.
And I trust You.
