Pray this Lazaroo in steadfast faith:

“They are lazy; that is why they are crying out, ‘Let us go and sacrifice to our God.’ Make the work harder for the people so that they keep working and pay no attention to lies.”
(Exodus 5:8-9)

But they weren’t lazy, Jesus!

They were obeying You!

May I always remember:

Even when I’m doing exactly what You desire
this can happen to me.

When others judge me harshly

should I quit obeying You?

No!
Never.

Pray this Lazaroo with burning zeal:

“Now you dwellers in Jerusalem and people of Judah, judge between me and my vineyard. What more could have been done for my vineyard than I have done for it? When I looked for good grapes, why did it yield only bad”
(Isaiah 5:3-4)

I don’t know what more You could have done for me, Jesus!

I only pray that when You look at the results
of Your loving investment in me

You will find more good grapes
than bad.

Pray this Lazaroo with a yearning soul:

“At that time I will carry out against Eli everything I spoke against his family—from beginning to end. For I told him that I would judge his family forever because of the sin he knew about; his sons blasphemed God, and he failed to restrain them.”
(1 Samuel 3:12-13)

I, too, have failed to restrain some of the people in my life, Jesus.

Of course, You haven’t given me full control over someone else.

But You have given me a measure of influence.

Please maximize Your mighty power through me
to accomplish what only You can do.

Pray this Lazaroo in obedient trust:

“Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes. He will bring to light what is hidden in darkness and will expose the motives of the heart. At that time each will receive their praise from God.
(1 Corinthians 4:5)

Even when I obey and follow You with all my heart, Jesus

my praise may not come now.

I need to be okay with that.

By faith, help me fix my eyes on my reward in heaven.

Please don’t let me become discouraged

when it all blows up in my face on earth.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“I care very little if I am judged by you or by any human court; indeed, I do not even judge myself. My conscience is clear, but that does not make me innocent. It is the Lord who judges me. Therefore judge nothing before the appointed time; wait until the Lord comes.”
(1 Corinthians 4:3-5)

You’re my judge, Jesus.

But even better
You’re my compassionate, loving, merciful Savior!

Others see my results.

You see my heart –
how passionately I long to please You!

Pray this Lazaroo with growing anticipation:

“He will judge between many peoples and will settle disputes for strong nations far and wide. They will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not take up sword against nation, nor will they train for war anymore.”
(Micah 4:3)

What a promise, Jesus!

Certain, in the last days to come true.

Oh, not because there’s even a hint now that such a thing can happen

but because when You declare it
it’s as good as done.

Pray this Lazaroo with pure devotion:

“When Esther’s eunuchs and female attendants…told her about Mordecai, she was in great distress. She sent clothes for him to put on instead of his sackcloth, but he would not accept them. Then Esther summoned…one of the king’s eunuchs…and ordered him to find out what was troubling Mordecai and why.”
(Esther 4:4-5)

Help me not to judge the actions of others, Jesus.

I don’t know what they’re going through!

May I show them the same compassion I want to be shown

when my actions are offensive to others.

Pray this Lazaroo in ardent love:

“…it is written: ‘So that you may be proved right when you speak and prevail when you judge.’ But if our unrighteousness brings out God’s righteousness more clearly, what shall we say? That God is unjust in bringing his wrath on us? (I am using a human argument.) Certainly not! If that were so, how could God judge the world?”
(Romans 3:4-6)

You are Perfect, Righteous and Just, Jesus.

In our flawed, unrighteous, injustice

how dare we impugn Your judgments?

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your heart:

Her leaders judge for a bribe, her priests teach for a price, and her prophets tell fortunes for money. Yet they look for the Lord’s support and say, ‘Is not the Lord among us? No disaster will come upon us.’”
(Micah 3:11)

There’s a difference, isn’t there, Jesus –

between leaders who have a heart
to do Your work

and those who refuse to do Your work
unless they’re paid.

Give us leaders whose sole motivation

is to please You!

Pray this Lazaroo with earnest desire:

“But when they cried out to the Lord, he raised up for them a deliverer, Othniel son of Kenaz, Caleb’s younger brother, who saved them. The Spirit of the Lord came on him, so that he became Israel’s judge…So the land had peace for forty years, until Othniel son of Kenaz died.”
(Judges 3:9-11)

It takes a leader, doesn’t it, Jesus?

One who is totally committed to You.

Raise up for us those leaders, Father!

Oh, how we need them.
