Pray this Lazaroo in holy awe:

“Remember Jesus Christ…descended from David.”
(2 Timothy 2:8)

This is kind of a big deal, Jesus.

1,859 years before You were born, Your ancestor Jacob prophesied over his son Judah:

“The scepter will not depart from Judah
…until he to whom it belongs shall come
and the obedience of the nations shall be his.”

Jacob to Judah to King David

…all the way to You.

This isn’t “kind of” a big deal, is it?

It is a big deal.

Take a step back, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“The king of Moab has rebelled against me. Will you go with me to fight against Moab?”
(2 Kings 3:7)

Three kings, Jesus –

Joram, wicked King of Israel
Jehoshaphat, good King of Judah
The evil, rebellious King of Moab

So one evil king asks the good king to help him fight against the other evil king

and because the good king knows they were once brothers
he agrees.

Please, LORD –

give me the wisdom to avoid messes like that!

Pray this Lazaroo…with confidence:

“The house of Judah, however, followed David.”
(2 Samuel 2:10)

You promised David would be king over all Israel, Jesus.

For more than seven years, however, only Judah followed him.
The other tribes followed the son of Saul.

David waited a long time for Your promise to be fulfilled.

I can identify.
I’m still waiting on some of Your promises.

But the day came when Your promise to David came true

as will every promise You’ve made to me.
