Pray this Lazaroo in wholehearted dedication:

“All these cities were fortified with high walls and with gates and bars, and there were also a great many unwalled villages. We completely destroyed them, as we had done with Sihon king of Heshbon, destroying every city—men, women and children. But all the livestock and the plunder from their cities we carried off for ourselves.”
(Deuteronomy 3:5-7)

Brutal, Jesus. Brutal.

But when You ordered it
You had a reason.

I will never stop trying to understand Your Ways…

but may I never second-guess You!

Pray this Lazaroo in rock-solid faith:

“Og king of Bashan with his whole army marched out to meet us in battle at Edrei. The Lord said to me, ‘Do not be afraid of him, for I have delivered him into your hands, along with his whole army and his land. Do to him what you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon.’”
(Deuteronomy 3:1-2)

When You tell me not to be afraid of someone, Jesus

that settles it.

I don’t have to be afraid.

Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“I sent messengers to Sihon king of Heshbon offering peace and saying, ‘Let us pass through your country. We will stay on the main road; we will not turn aside to the right or to the left. Sell us food to eat and water to drink for their price in silver.’ But Sihon…refused to let us pass through.”
(Deuteronomy 2:26-28; 30)

There are going to be days like that, Jesus.

I’ve experienced a few of them.

But it helps to remember

it happened in accordance with Your perfect plan.

Pray this Lazaroo with unrestrained allegiance:

“See, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his country. Begin to take possession of it and engage him in battle. This very day I will begin to put the terror and fear of you on all the nations under heaven. They will hear reports of you and will tremble and be in anguish because of you.”
(Deuteronomy 2:24-25)

Nothing happens, Jesus

unless You make it happen
or let it happen

which means my total focus
needs to be on You.
