Pray this Lazaroo with faith in the God who can:

“Hold on to instruction, do not let it go; guard it well, for it is your life. Do not set foot on the path of the wicked or walk in the way of evildoers. Avoid it, do not travel on it; turn from it and go on your way.”
(Proverbs 4:13-15)

As instructions go, Jesus

this is one of the best:

protecting me from horrific consequences
on earth…and eternally.

Help me hold on to this instruction and never let it go!

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“When Mordecai learned of all that had been done, he tore his clothes, put on sackcloth and ashes, and went out into the city, wailing loudly and bitterly.”
(Esther 4:1)

Mordecai felt exactly the way most of us would feel, Jesus

when confronted with horrific, disastrously unacceptable news.

He was right.

The threatened annihilation of all the Jews was catastrophic.

But He was also wrong.

Because You were about to turn this unthinkable situation
into stunning victory.

Help me remember that

next time I’m tempted to lose it over bad news.

Pray this Lazaroo with rock-solid determination:

“People will flee to caves in the rocks and to holes in the ground from the fearful presence of the Lord and the splendor of his majesty, when he rises to shake the earth.”
(Isaiah 2:19)

If we love and fear You now, Jesus

we’ll shout for joy in that day
fearless and triumphant!

But if we disdain and ignore You now

that day will be horrific terror
like nothing we’ve ever known.

I’m taking my stand with You.

Now!

Take warning! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“…God did not spare angels when they sinned…”
(2 Peter 2:4)

They had it all, didn’t they, Jesus?

They were with You in heaven!
They saw You, heard You, served You!

But then along came Satan

perhaps the most amazing of all the angels
who looked in the mirror one too many times
and let his pride get the better of him.

One-third of the angels bought into his lies.

May I never follow their horrific example.

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“…whom God has hedged in?”
(Job 3:23)

Job hated what was happening, Jesus –

and for good reason!
He was in horrific pain.

But there was an underlying issue, wasn’t there?

He didn’t like being “hedged in” –
realizing You had put him in a place

from which there was no escape.

We human beings love our freedom, don’t we?

But problems arise when I abuse my freedom
which, if left unchecked, will ruin my life.

O God!
Hedge me in!
