Pray this Lazaroo in humble recognition:

“He summons his picked troops…”
(Nahum 2:5)

I can select the best helpers out there, Jesus.

I can train them
motivate them
send them out
expect them to do well.

But if they succeed, it will be Your doing.

Not mine.
Not theirs.

If You so decree, they’ll fail –

and there’s not one thing I can do about it.

You’ve called Your people to be involved, Father!

But You don’t want us to ever forget

Who runs the show.

Pray this Lazaroo in passionate gratitude:

“…they dart about like lightning.”
(Nahum 2:4)

It’s not much fun to have enemies who can do that, Jesus!

They’re too fast.
I can’t keep track of them.

I don’t know when the next attack is coming
or where it’s coming from.

I can feel their thunder
way down in my bones.

If they succeed in striking me
I’m fried.

But You Are my God!

You Are my Protector!

I will not fear!

…for You are LORD of the lightning.
