Ask God to open your eyes, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“’That’s blood!’ they said. ‘Those kings must have fought and slaughtered each other. Now to the plunder, Moab!’ But when the Moabites came to the camp of Israel, the Israelites rose up and fought them until they fled. And the Israelites invaded the land and slaughtered the Moabites.”
(2 Kings 3:23-24)

The Moabites weren’t stupid, Jesus.

You’re the one who made them fall for that ruse.
You’re the one who gave Your people that stunning victory

…as You always are.

Take warning! as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Now Eli, who was very old, heard about everything his sons were doing to all Israel and how they slept with the women who served at the entrance to the tent of meeting. So he said to them, ‘Why do you do such things? I hear from all the people about these wicked deeds of yours.’”
(1 Samuel 2:22-23)

Eli rebuked his sons, Jesus

but it stopped there.

He failed to restrain them

which cost Eli and his sons their lives.

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“For David did not ascend to heaven, and yet he said, ‘The Lord said to my Lord: “Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.”’ Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.”
(Acts 2:34-36)

 

You’re the one who ascended into heaven, Jesus!

But only after –

in the greatest display of love
this world has ever known –

You gave Your life for me on the cross.

Pray this Lazaroo with catalytic dedication:

“‘In vain I punished your people; they did not respond to correction. Your sword has devoured your prophets like a ravenous lion. You of this generation, consider the word of the Lord: ‘Have I been a desert to Israel or a land of great darkness? Why do my people say, “We are free to roam; we will come to you no more”?’”
(Jeremiah 2:30-31)

May I never dismiss Your warnings, Jesus!

Open my eyes wide
s
harpen my hearing.

Cause me to repent

so I can be spared.

Pray this Lazaroo in awed anticipation:

“Who is this coming up from the wilderness like a column of smoke, perfumed with myrrh and incense made from all the spices of the merchant? Look! It is Solomon’s carriage, escorted by sixty warriors, the noblest of Israel, all of them wearing the sword, all experienced in battle, each with his sword at his side, prepared for the terrors of the night.”
(Song of Songs 3:6-8)

What an amazing sight, Jesus!

But a far better one is coming

when I follow You on Your great white horse

into end-time battle!

Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“Everyone who heard this wondered about it, asking, ‘What then is this child going to be?’ For the Lord’s hand was with him. His father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied: ‘Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, because he has come to his people and redeemed them.’”
(Luke 1:66-68)

What am I going to be, Jesus?

Just because I’m what I am now
doesn’t mean the last chapter has been written.

Whatever the answer
may I bring glory to You!

Open your heart, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Listen, you leaders of Jacob, you rulers of Israel. Should you not embrace justice, you who hate good and love evil; who tear the skin from my people and the flesh from their bones; who eat my people’s flesh, strip off their skin and break their bones in pieces; who chop them up like meat for the pan, like flesh for the pot?”
(Micah 3:1-3)

 

Not physical cannibalism, Jesus.

Spiritual.

Abuse.
Lies.
Misinformation.
Neglect.

You view, judge and punish it:

as cannibalism.

Pray this Lazaroo with deep reverence:

“Like an enemy he has strung his bow; his right hand is ready. Like a foe he has slain all who were pleasing to the eye; he has poured out his wrath like fire on the tent of Daughter Zion. The Lord is like an enemy; he has swallowed up Israel.”
(Lamentations 2:4-5)

You’re nothing to mess with, Jesus!

Sadly, Your people learned that the hard way
when they repeatedly ignored You
and profaned Your Holy Name.

I prefer to learn that horrible lesson

vicariously.

Pray this Lazaroo with determination:

“They were left to test the Israelites to see whether they would obey the Lord’s commands, which he had given their ancestors through Moses. The Israelites lived among the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites. They took their daughters in marriage and gave their own daughters to their sons, and served their gods.”
(Judges 3:4-6)

I too live among those who follow other gods, Jesus.

But may I – unlike the Israelites – never follow their gods.

Instead, help me lead them to You!

Pray this Lazaroo as a passionate plea:

“And the Lord said to Joshua, ‘Today I will begin to exalt you in the eyes of all Israel, so they may know that I am with you as I was with Moses. Tell the priests who carry the ark of the covenant: “When you reach the edge of the Jordan’s waters, go and stand in the river.”’”
(Joshua 3:7-8)

When You do that for a leader, Jesus

their biggest challenge is to make sure

they’re not exalted in their own eyes.
