Pray this Lazaroo with grateful specificity:

“The word of the LORD came to Haggai a second time on the twenty-fourth day of the month.”
(Haggai 2:20)

That’s nailing it down pretty tight, Jesus

right to the day.

You appreciate it when I thank You generically

“…for all You’ve done.”

But that’s a prayer that, if I’m not careful

…can be uttered almost without thinking.

How much better when I remember exactly what You did for me

how You did it

and when You did it!

Pray this Lazaroo in devoted passion:

“He proclaimed, ‘Forty more days and Ninevah will be overturned.’”
(Jonah 3:4)

Finally, Jonah obeyed You, Jesus.

First, he ran away
hopped a ship in the opposite direction.

Stupid decision.
No one can run away from You.

You sent a storm so bad the sailors threw him overboard
had a great fish swallow him until he repented, then spit him out.

Now, he’s preaching like You told him to.

How much better
when I obey You the first time!

Pray this Lazaroo in deepened understanding:

“…a wisdom that has been hidden…”
(1 Corinthians 2:7)

Please forgive me, Jesus, but I have to ask –

Why would you hide Your wisdom from me?
I need it so desperately!

It’s about timing, isn’t it?

You’ve said there’s a time for everything.
“Everything” would include wisdom. 😉

But it’s also about my growth, isn’t it?

You could just dump all Your wisdom on me at once.

But how much better for me to learn it

step

by

step.
