Pray this Lazaroo in humble surrender:

“Here is a trustworthy saying: Whoever aspires to be an overseer desires a noble task. He must not be a recent convert, or he may become conceited and fall under the same judgment as the devil.”
(1 Timothy 3:1,6)

This is good advice for overseers, Jesus.

It’s also an eye-opening insight into what happened with Satan.

You entrusted him with amazing gifts
but he deliberately ignored the fact

that You were the one
who gave them to him.

Pray this Lazaroo with fiery devotion:

“…his mother spoke up and said, ‘No! He is to be called John.’ They said to her, ‘There is no one among your relatives who has that name.’ Then they made signs to his father, to find out what he would like to name the child.”
(Luke 1:60-62)

They totally disrespected John the Baptist’s mother, Jesus.

Since what she said didn’t make sense to them
they ignored her.

But she knew what You wanted.

What the crowd thought

didn’t matter.

Pray this Lazaroo with unshakable persistence:

“So I told you, but you would not listen. You rebelled against the Lord’s command and in your arrogance you marched up into the hill country.”
(Deuteronomy 1:43)

I know how Moses feels, Jesus

well…just a little.

I’ve shared warnings You’ve shared with me

only to have people ignore me

and even worse, ignore You!

But just when I start to climb up on my soap box of holier-than-thou

You remind me of times

when I’ve ignored Your warning.

Pray this Lazaroo in deepest personal gratitude:

“Come and see…”
(John 1:46)

I would have thought that’s all people needed to do, Jesus.

Phillip told Nathanael to come and see You and he believed.
Many others did the same.

But it’s stunning to realize how many of the Jewish leaders who saw You did not believe.

They already had their minds made up.
They scoffed at your words and ignored your miracles.

It’s the same way today.

Nobody can come to You unless Your Father enables them.
