Pray this Lazaroo with excuseless humility:

“…the royal secretaries…wrote out in the script of each province and in the language of each people all Haman’s orders to the king’s satraps, the governors of the various provinces and the nobles of the various peoples. These were written in the name of King Xerxes himself and sealed with his own ring.”
(Esther 3:12)

What an immense amount of harm this king allowed, Jesus

all because he trusted the wrong man.

Give me supernatural discernment, Holy Spirit!

My trust is in You alone.

Cry out to God for protection, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“Then Haman said to King Xerxes, “There is a certain people dispersed among the peoples in all the provinces of your kingdom who keep themselves separate. Their customs are different from those of all other people, and they do not obey the king’s laws; it is not in the king’s best interest to tolerate them.”
(Esther 3:8)

Haman was plotting to destroy Your chosen people, Jesus!

Please deliver Your Church and those I love
from those whose hearts Satan has filled
with the same evil intent!

Pray this Lazaroo in deepest gratitude:

“In the twelfth year of King Xerxes, in the first month, the month of Nisan, the pur (that is, the lot) was cast in the presence of Haman to select a day and month. And the lot fell on the twelfth month, the month of Adar.”
(Esther 3:7)

Haman was superstitiously seeking the perfect time to harm Your people, Jesus.

But You’re the One who guided the lot and turned it against him!

Guide my every decision LORD –
for Your eternal glory!

Beg God for supernatural discernment, as you pray this Lazaroo:

“After these events, King Xerxes honored Haman…”
(Esther 3:1)

You don’t tell us why the king honored this awful man, Jesus.

Maybe it was because of Haman’s family connections.
Perhaps the king’s advisers thought it was a good idea.
Maybe Haman possessed skills the king needed.

But honoring Haman was an absolutely atrocious decision

because the man was evil to the bone.

Help me never forget, LORD:

If a person is great in every area except character

they’re poison.

Pray this Lazaroo with white-hot fervor:

“…in the presence of the king.”
(Esther 2:23)

King Xerxes reigned over 127 provinces in the citadel of Susa, Jesus.

Mordecai the Jew had foiled a plot to assassinate the king.

His action was being recorded in the book of the annals
while the king looked on.

Nobody has to record for You what I’ve done, Father.

You know everything I think
hear every word I say.

May I always remember:

Everything I do is in Your Presence!

Pray this Lazaroo with laser-focused intensity:

“Mordecai was sitting at the king’s gate.”
(Esther 2:19)

That’s where I choose to be, Jesus –

at the King’s gate.

Not King Xerxes’ gate, the place Mordecai had camped out.

Your gate.

Of course, I know You’re everywhere at once.

Only You. Only You.

But I’m talking about the place where You’re acting, moving

making things happen.

Wherever You Are

that’s where I want to be.

Right in the middle of it.

Nowhere else
holds any interest for me.
