Pray this Lazaroo with bottomless trust:

“My beloved thrust his hand through the latch-opening; my heart began to pound for him. I arose to open for my beloved, and my hands dripped with myrrh, my fingers with flowing myrrh, on the handles of the bolt.”
(Song of Songs 5:4-5)

May I always be that excited to spend time with You, Jesus!

I confess that’s not always the case.

Sometimes I close my eyes in prayer perfunctorily.

Sometimes I open my Bible out of obligation.

In those moments, I’ve forgotten with Whom I’m about to spend time:

The King of kings!
The LORD of lords!

May my heart pound within me!

Pray this Lazaroo with no-holds-barred surrender:

“…Mordecai…tore his clothes, put on sackcloth and ashes, and went out into the city, wailing loudly and bitterly. But he went only as far as the king’s gate, because no one clothed in sackcloth was allowed to enter it.”
(Esther 4:1-2)

The king didn’t want to see anybody who was sad, Jesus.

He wanted everything to appear happy.

Thank You for being the King of kings

who invites me to come close to You
when my heart is breaking.

Pray this Lazaroo from the depths of your soul:

“The wind swept them away without leaving a trace. But the rock that struck the statue became a huge mountain and filled the whole earth. This was the dream, and now we will interpret it to the king. Your Majesty, you are the king of kings. The God of heaven has given you dominion and power and might and glory…”
(Daniel 2:35-37)

The king’s dream, Jesus!

The interpretation You gave
through one of Your all-time favorites:

Daniel.

I long to be one of Your favorites, too!

Pray this Lazaroo in humble adulation:

“God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.”
(Colossians 1:27)

Absolutely, Jesus!

A rich, glorious, glory-anticipating total mystery

to the very marrow of my bones:

You!

The Creator of the universe and everything in it
King of kings and LORD of lords

living in me!

Oh, HALLELUJAH!

Pray this Lazaroo with bulldog faith:

“…they run along the wall.”
(Joel 2:9)

What a terrifying sight, Jesus!

It’s bad enough to see my enemies coming in the distance.

But when they’re here, scaling my wall?

Huh-uh.
It’s over.

Except it’s not.

Humanly speaking, yes.
But it’s never too late with You.

Is anything too hard for the King of kings and LORD of lords?
Nope.

By every appearance it can look like all is lost.

But You’re the God who can disappear every appearance.

Pray this Lazaroo with joy:

“He proclaimed a holiday…”
(Esther 2:18)

Well good for him, Jesus!

Kings have the power to do that.

I, on the other hand, can’t just up and declare one of those

no matter how badly I need it.

Wait a minute.

You’re King of kings and LORD of lords.

I’m more than a subject in Your kingdom
I’m Your dearly loved child.

So when You see that I really need a holiday

I know somehow, someway
You’ll proclaim it.
